Mysterium: An Electric Soundpainting Septet
by Elliott Simon
This reviewer heard drummer Eric John Eigner's Mysterium project around five years ago, about the same time as picking up on guitarist Adam Cai's Pipe (TrueFalse, 2005). Both these trio releases were thrill-rides that aurally assaulted with an instrumental and compositional mix that leaned heavily on their respective leaders. Their playing field was bounded by a ...

Ahleuchatistas: Of The Body Prone
by Mark Corroto
Tzadik label chief John Zorn has never lost his passion for hardcore music. Although his band Naked City is no more, he continues to promote artists who, to quote Allen Ginsberg are, “destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix." The band Ahleuchatistas certainly does ...

Joan A. Cararach: el 'maestro' de Barcelona
by Joao Moreira dos Santos
Fundado por Joan Roselló en 1966, el Festival de Jazz de Barcelona ha ido renovándose y evolucionando con múltiples avatares desde entonces, pero la edición de este año es verdaderamente especial. No sólo desafía la crisis económica, presentando más conciertos que nunca (60 en casi dos meses), sino que además, por primera vez, se clausura en ...
Eyal Maoz's Edom: Hope and Destruction
by Eyal Hareuveni
The second release of New York-based Israeli guitarist Eyal Maoz alt-klezmer quartet Edom is a schizophrenic one. On one hand, Maoz faithfully follows Tzadik founder John Zorn's hybridized post-modern pastiche of klezmer and Jewish musical traditions, and musical references that are typical of the label's Radical Jewish Culture series. This is most audible in the manner ...

He's performed and recorded with mainstream jazzers like Herbie Hancock and Wynton Marsalis; downtown experimentalists like John Zorn and Laurie Anderson; pop icons like Sting and Paul Simon and major Brazilian stars like Milton Nascimento and Ivan Lins. And he may be ...
