Simon Jermyn’s Trot A Mouse: Pictorial Atlas Of Mammals

Read "Pictorial Atlas Of Mammals" reviewed by Henning Bolte

by Henning Bolte

At times the music of an album can be strikingly different from common and even one's own perceptional mental grids and might challenge one's own horizon of expectation. This album is not only a clear example of it. It is unusual and fascinating how adversative, contrastive features are balanced out in its music: rough and gentle, ...

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Daniel Levin

Read "I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Daniel Levin" reviewed by Vincenzo Roggero

by Vincenzo Roggero

01. Joe Morris -Solos -Bimhuis (Relative Pitch -2015). Musica incredibile. Ci sono così tante informazioni in ogni frase di Joe. La prima volta che ho ascoltato questo disco, sono ritornato sui primi tredici secondi di “Trunk" almeno una trentina di volte prima di passare al brano successivo. Incredibilmente denso e fluido allo stesso tempo.

Anna Webber’s Percussive Mechanics: Refractions

Read "Refractions" reviewed by Mark Corroto

by Mark Corroto

Credit the new generation of jazz musicians for neither following tradition, nor coloring within the lines. Their music is not created within “the tradition." Unless, of course, that tradition includes maverick innovators like Anthony Braxton, Roscoe Mitchell, and John Zorn, players that, at times, have been given the label of non-jazz. This new crop of players ...

Peter Davenport: Bolide

Read "Bolide" reviewed by Dave Wayne

by Dave Wayne

Peter Davenport's Bolide is the sort of album that often flies completely under the radar. It's what record collectors call a private issue; completely self-produced, self-distributed and available on a very small scale; generally only through the artist. Nevertheless, Bolide is a worthwhile listening experience. While not a familiar name to me prior to hearing this ...
