John Sharpe's Best Releases Of 2019
by John Sharpe
There's sometimes a backlash against picking the year's best albums. Understandably so when it entails pitting one honest artistic endeavour against another.

Jacob Anderskov: Into the Mystery
by Jakob Baekgaard
Music is essentially a mystery. There are multiple ways of shaping sounds and just as many ways of perceiving them.

Tomasz Dąbrowski FREE4ARTS: Six Months and Ten Drops
by Eyal Hareuveni
FREE4ARTS may be the most Nordic-sounding group of Polish, Copenhagen-based prolific trumpeter Tomasz Dąbrowski. The quartet features colleagues from the musicians-run collective and record label Barefoot Records including baritone saxophonist Sven Dam Meinild, who also plays in Dąbrowski international quartet Ocean Fanfare, and drummer Kasper Tom Christiansen, who collaborated before with Dąbrowski in the Polish-Danish trio ...
Drums and Piano: Denny Zeitlin and Kasper Tom
by Jakob Baekgaard
The meeting between drums and piano is one of the more rare combinations in jazz, but it is possible to find fine examples of this particular genre. Just think of the encounter between Italian pianist Enrico Pieranunzi and drummer Paul Motian on Flux & Change (Soul Note, 1995) and Australian pianist Mike Nock's collaboration with drummer ...
Jomi Massage: Primitives
by Eyal Hareuveni
Jomi Massage is the alter-ego of Danish musician Signe Høirup Wille-Jørgensen. The title is borrowed from what she describes as “an innocent but kinky massage-device, from a 60's collection of beauty and health products" (actually, the first electric vibrator available to Danes). She has been active in the alternative Danish scene since the mid-nineties, beginning with ...
