Bill Laswell: No Boundaries

Read "Bill Laswell: No Boundaries" reviewed by Nenad Georgievski


For some people music is a mere entertainment product, a pastime amusement. For others music is a powerful force and the act of its creation carries within itself a sense of discovery. Bill Laswell's music, production and remixes have always carried that sense of discovery and riskiness. Multifariously creative and independent, he has always been revered ...

Hypercolor: Hypercolor

Read "Hypercolor" reviewed by Dave Wayne


The past few months have seen a stream of truly--and in some cases mind-bogglingly--wonderful guitar-centric power trio albums. Yet, the eponymous debut of the Brooklyn-based avant-jazz-rock band Hypercolor stands out, but not for the reasons you'd think.

Exhaustion / Kris Wanders: Exhaustion / Kris Wanders

Read "Exhaustion / Kris Wanders" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The marriage of punk rock to free jazz is a natural fit. Both art forms are DIY; punk a rejection of corporate rock-n-roll of the 1970s and free jazz, the stasis of jazz, some fifty years post-birth. Today, we find Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore playing with The Thing, Borbetomagus, The Ex and Ken Vandermark, John Zorn's ...

Nels Cline, Julian Lage: Room

Read "Room" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero


Uno, Nels Cline, è un alchimista della sei corde, strumento che ha espanso e portato oltre i limiti come pochi, trasfigurandolo in una portentosa opportunità per viaggi ultragalattici della mente e del corpo. L'altro, Julian Lage, è un giovane emergente che partito dalla tradizione della chitarra jazz sta allargando i propri orizzonti grazie anche alla frequentazione ...

Re-Evolution Band: The Dark Side of the Wall. 1979-2013

Read "The Dark Side of the Wall. 1979-2013" reviewed by Luigi Sforza


Ci sono dischi che per loro natura richiederebbero un intervento critico d'equipe: un team di specialisti di vari settori musicali in grado di individuarne le caratteristiche e orientarne il senso. Da qualsiasi angolazione si guardi, The Drak Side of the Wall. 1970-2013 è un disco fittamente costruito, linguisticamente asimmetrico, spiazzante come può essere la musica ...
