Flametet: A General History of Flame

Read "A General History of Flame" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala


Sotto il grazioso appellativo di Flametet, per un album dal titolo altrettanto intrigante, sono riuniti sei musicisti guidati dal bassista Kit Demos, tra i quali l'unico nome che ci era conosciuto (e apprezzato) è quello del pianista Pandelis Karayorgis, qui impegnato in qualità di ospite del quintetto, solo alle tastiere Wurlitzer. L'organico si muove soprattutto come ...

Fabio Delvò: Rastplatz

Read "Rastplatz" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


Il sassofonista Fabio Delvò ha già lasciato più di una interessante testimonianza della sua arte dapprima con la militanza nella Flight Band di Biagio Coppa successivamente con i suoi progetti da leader (il disco DNA del 2012), e co-leader (il recente Differential Equations con il chitarrista americano Jeff Platz). Questo Rastplatz -area di sosta lungo le ...

Differential Equations: Jeff Platz / Kit Demos / Fabio Delvo / John McLellan

Read "Differential Equations: Jeff Platz / Kit Demos / Fabio Delvo / John McLellan" reviewed by Dave Wayne


Those drawn to free improvised music can attest to the appeal of the style: the constant flow of ideas and the crackling energy of instantaneous musical interactions.

Jeff Platz - Kit Demos - Fabio Delvò - John McLellan: Differential Equations

Read "Differential Equations" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


Da una parte l'elettricità--la chitarra di Jeff Platz, il basso di Kit Demos--dall'altra la componente acustica--la batteria di John McLellan, il sax contralto di Fabio Delvò-. Che Differential Equations sia un album dai ruoli definiti e dalle sonorità equamente ripartite come ogni buona dimostrazione matematica? Niente affatto perché le rasoiate, le tangenti alle ...

Klare / Platz / Kneer / Elgart: Modern Primitive

Read "Modern Primitive" reviewed by Dave Wayne


Steeped in various aspects of jazz tradition as much as it is on the cutting edge, the sonic territory covered by Modern Primitive is vast, to say the least. The music here, all freely improvised, has a warmth and immediacy that comes from intense, shared listening. Though there are no tunes or changes per se, that ...

Charlie Kohlhase Launches an Outpost 186 Exploration for February

After a dismal 2011, in which the Explorers Club only performed once, Boston's beloved cranky yankee polishes his battery of saxophones and follows the groundhog out of midwinter torpor. Over the course of the unrolling spring, saxophonist/composer Charlie Kohlhase will oversee mid month explorations in Inman Squares favorite back yard gallery, Outpost 186. Starting on Thursday, ...
