Spinifex: Undrilling the Hole
by Vincenzo Roggero
Spinifex è un gruppo eterogeneo per esperienza e per provenienza geografica, con base ad Amsterdam, che con Undrilling the Hole giunge alla nona pubblicazione, la quinta con questa formazione, un sestetto con tre fiati, sezione ritmica e chitarra.

Luis Vicente: Come Down Here
by John Sharpe
Portuguese trumpeter Luis Vicente hits pay dirt with Come Down Here. Although he explores a range of styles from poised but unfettered outings such as Chamber 4 (FMR, 2015) and For Sale (Clean Feed, 2015), to fire music collaborations with the likes of tenor saxophonist John Dikeman on House In The Valley (Clean Feed, 2023), the ...
Dikeman / Hong / Lumley / Warelis: Old Adam On Turtle Island
by Mark Corroto
The creative community centered in Amsterdam, Netherlands, can be seen as the modern-day equivalent of a city once known as New Amsterdam--a 17th-century Dutch settlement that would eventually become New York City. Just as modern jazz flourished in mid-20th-century New York, some might argue that today's hotbed of creative music resides in old Amsterdam. Evidence for ...
Spinifex: Undrilling the Hole
by Lawrence Peryer
The Amsterdam-based sextet Spinifex borrowed their name from a hardy Australian grass known for thriving in harsh conditions. For nearly two decades, they have forged original music from seemingly incompatible elements--mathematical structures, punk aggression, free jazz fire. Their ninth album, Undrilling the Hole, presents seven new compositions from alto saxophonist Tobias Klein that showcase the band's ...

Keefe Jackson / Raoul van der Weide / Frank Rosaly: Live at de Tanker
by Mark Corroto
It is a fair conjecture to assume the axis of this recording is Frank Rosaly. The Puerto Rican drummer who caught jazz and improvised music listeners' attention during his years in Chicago now makes The Netherlands his home. Live At de Tanker connects Rosaly with his past, Chicagoan saxophonist Keefe Jackson and his present, Dutch bassist ...
John Dikeman, Pat Thomas, John Edwards, Steve Noble: Volume 2
by John Sharpe
An incendiary outfit returns for a second volume (perhaps the second set?) of free jazz mayhem from London's Cafe Oto, recorded in February 2019. It comprises four players, each with a big sound, regardless of amplification, and a big personality to match--Amsterdam-based American John Dikeman, on tenor saxophone, and the British threesome of Pat Thomas (hailed ...
