Aka Balkan Moon & AlefBa: Double Live
by Karl Ackermann
The music of the Balkans has been progressively finding a prominent place among Western listeners of creative music in the past several years, though its presence has been a relevant factor for decades. Notably Raya Brass Band, Eastern Boundary Quartet and Balkan Beat Box have directly and indirectly incorporated the regional influences in the context of ...
Jeff Dayton-Johnson's Best Releases of 2013
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Every year the list gets longer and more heterogeneous. There are blockbusters and obscure little gems, loud jazz and quiet jazz, hip hop and kora music, some of it downright unclassifiable. Which is fine. “Junku," a 1984 track anthologized on Herbie Hancock's spectacular box set below, is in fact both hip hop and kora music! In ...
Carles Benavent: Jazz, Flamenco and Blues
by Bruce Lindsay
Of all the instrumentalists in contemporary music, only a handful have become game changers. Jazz trumpet has Louis Armstrong, rock guitar has Jimi Hendrix, jazz saxophone has Charlie Parker. Flamenco bass guitar has Carles Benavent. Benavent's fluid, melodic and emotive style of playing is as beautiful as it is distinctive. Developed initially from a love of ...

Magic Malik: Alternate Steps
by Jeff Dayton-Johnson
Flutist Malik Mezzadri grew up on the Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, and moved to France to study at the conservatory in Marseille when he was 17.

Magic Malik: Short Cuts
by AAJ Italy Staff
La musica di Malik è sempre stata un variopinto blend di elementi diversi: melodie suggestive di sapore etnico dalla marcata articolazione ritmica, con arrangiamenti e interventi improvvisati di chiaro stampo jazzistico. Una musica affascinante anche per i variegati accostamenti timbrici che non disdegnavano l'uso dell'elettronica. In questo nuovo lavoro, il primo in quartetto, ma con partner ...

Magic Malik - Minino Garay - Jaime Torres: Altiplano
by AAJ Italy Staff
Dopo i suoi promettenti esordi discografici per la Label Bleu, avevamo perso le tracce di Magic Malik, che incontriamo di nuovo in questo CD dalla ricca veste editoriale, in cui il flautista dà il suo contributo ad una musica d’ibridazione, attuale e accattivante, che, come cita la copertina, intende dare “una lettura inedita della chacarera, della ...
