Noirish
by Ludovico Granvassu
More music that could work very well as soundtrack for an imaginary film noir... with some spaghetti-western variations. Happy Listening! And if you like what you hear, listen to the first part of this noir investigation. Playlist Guano Padano, “A Country Concept" from Guano Padano (Important) 0:00 Guano ...
Da Cruz: Eco Do Futuro
by Chris M. Slawecki
The chronology: Eco Do Futuro is the fifth album by the band named for leader and vocalist Mariana Da Cruz. All four previous Da Cruz releases reached the US college radio chart top ten; they recorded all five in their own studio, Boom Jah Studios in Switzerland. The music: “Da Cruz is the collision ...
Martin Loyato: Involution
by Geno Thackara
Have you ever wondered what directions Miles Davis might have taken if he hadn't retired from his electric fusion period in mid-1975? Perhaps he could have shifted his influences even farther east, traded the odd cocaine binge for an opium habit, and gradually replaced all the heavily layered African rhythms with some more minimalist drones out ...
Warm Climates, Cool Sounds: Southern Hemispheric Survey
by Chris M. Slawecki
Afro-Cuban All Stars Absolutely Live II DM Ahora! Productions 2017 You can find many groups who call themselves “Afro-Cuban All Stars."

Una sorta di Industria 4.0 della musica: fuori dal “circolo" dei tour estivi, tipico dei festival jazz, e poco interessato a fotografare il passato e il presente, è invece molto attento ...
Richard Barbieri: Planets + Persona
by Geno Thackara
Keyboards often play a supporting part in many ensembles, but Richard Barbieri still takes the idea farther than most. His roles as band member (in art-pop outfit Japan and eclectic rock band Porcupine Tree) have always been marked by a distinct lack of spotlighting. He works with atmospheres more than notes, and riffs or heads are ...
Modus Factor: The Picasso Zone
by Dave Wayne
Versatiity is the key to the musical success of The Picasso Zone by the multi-national, polystylistic electric jazz trio Modus Factor. Based in Toronto, Modus Factor is comprised of Canadian drummer (and putative bandleader) Chris Lesso, trumpeter Brownman Ali--originally from Trinidad--and Uganada- born bassist Ian De Souza. Clearly, these guys' diverse origins contributed to their abiding ...
Enten Eller: Tiresia
by Mark Corroto
The Italian super-gruppo Enten Eller returns with Tiresia a set of improvisations for the epicurist. I suggest the music connoisseur who prefers to indulge in the prolonged unwrapping of their experience can get the most out of the three lengthy compositions this quartet delivers. Maybe a better phrase would be, gives birth to. A ...
