Esbjorn Svensson Trio: e.s.t. live in london
by Ian Patterson
Ten years on from the tragic death of Esbjörn Svensson, it's easy to forget just how ground-breaking e.s.t. was. Its seamless embrace of jazz, pop, rock and electronics aesthetics brought CD sales and a following more typical of successful pop acts. It was also the first European jazz band on the cover of Downbeat. Easy to ...

Esbjorn Svensson Trio: e.s.t. live in london
by Geno Thackara
Let's get the obligatory background recap out of the way first. The Esbjorn Svensson Trio was a one-of-a-kind outfit, their DNA encompassing an amorphous pop-classical-jazz-tronica mix that made all those things co-exist so naturally it was almost unnatural.

However, five years previously, Svensson, Dan Berglund and Magnus Ostrom had played a handful of ...

Magnus Ostrom: Parachute
by Mike Jacobs
Some things take time. Perhaps Magnus Ostrom's third offering Parachute, will signal the end of the need for comparisons to his former iconic enterprise--The Esbjorn Svensson Trio. Or perhaps not.
