Ben Monder, Joao Lencastre & Emile Parisien
by Maurice Hogue
The much-respected guitarist Ben Monder took ten years to painstakingly craft the music on his latest release Planetarium. It's Monder at his finest, filtering through various moods, technique and sonic surprises. There's new music from Europe as usual--the German trio Brom, French soprano sax wizard Emile Parisien and his quartet, and Portuguese drummer Joao Lencastre and ...
Bassdrumbone, Kim Cass & Ivo Perelman
by Maurice Hogue
Ever heard of “fartlek"? It's a method of training for runners where they can play around with their speeds, very unstructured. That's sort of what this episode of One Man's Jazz turned out to be--all over the place in terms of style, tempos, musical variations and origins in the albums debuting.

On the new release side, you'll hear music from The Netherlands (saxophonist Hristo Goleminov, guitarist Ella Zirina and Tale Tellers From A Timeless Tribe), English free jazz saxophonist Ron ...
KT Reeder: 2021 Jazz
by David Burke
Jazz has always defied convention, its improvisational nature eliciting as much opprobrium as ovation. Ironically, given the libertarian philosophy that underpins it, those who play, critique or listen aren't always so receptive to change, to boundaries being forced, to new territory being mapped out. Remember, there were many who didn't dig bebop at first, many others ...
