Brian Drye: Bizingas

Read "Bizingas" reviewed by Troy Collins


Bizingas is the self-titled debut of trombonist Brian Drye's quartet of the same name. A versatile stylist whose resume includes stints with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, Slavic Soul Party and indie rock stars like Arcade Fire, Drye's eclecticism is a common trait in the fertile Brooklyn scene he calls home, where his protean sensibility is best ...

Brian Drye: Bizingas

Read "Bizingas" reviewed by Mark Corroto


Trombonist/composer Brian Drye is a modern musician for whom jazz is but one ingredient in his music. To him, the term is merely a pigeonhole, meant to typecast and eventually marginalize his work. He is not alone in this prescience, on Bizingas, Drye is accompanied by three visionary and quixotic players: cornetist Kirk Knuffke; guitarist Jonathan ...

Ideal Bread: Transmit - Vol. 2 of the Music of Steve Lacy

Read "Transmit - Vol. 2 of the Music of Steve Lacy" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Un sax baritono, “tubo" intrinsecamente privo di quell'allusività, quella magica obliquità, che dimorano invece generose nelle pieghe della musica di Steve Lacy, sta al centro di questo nuovo omaggio del quartetto newyorchese al grande sopranista, di cui viene riletta una manciata di temi solo in parte fra i suoi più alti (mancano - anche dal precedente ...

Undead Jazz Festival: Kenny's Castaways Edition

Read "Undead Jazz Festival: Kenny's Castaways Edition" reviewed by Daniel Lehner


Every zombie film fan knows that being bitten by a creature of the night is a fate worse than death. The only cure is to have a member of your party load up a shotgun and take you out before you turn into a limping, brain-hungry shell of a person. So giving an event a header ...

Kirk Knuffke: Amnesia Brown

Read "Amnesia Brown" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


L'idillio, musicalmente parlando, nasce all'interno della Nublu Orchestra, la formazione diretta ogni lunedì nell'omonimo locale da Lawrence Butch Morris. Knuffke, Wollesen e Wieselman scoprono più di una affinità elettiva ed il trombettista decide di incidere proprie composizioni utilizzando il talento di Wieselman, sia al clarinetto che alla chitarra, dando vita così ad una sorta di doppio ...
