Miles Okazaki: Thisness
by Vincenzo Roggero
Potremmo farci guidare dalle stimolanti note di copertina che evocano simbolismi, sogni, correnti di pensiero tirando in ballo John Cage, Marcel Duchamp e André Breton, in un viaggio surrealista dove immagini (meravigliosi gli acquerelli di Linda Okazaki), versi dal poema di Sun Ra “The Far Off Place" e procedimenti compositivi interagiscono in maniera stimolante.

Tim Berne - Matt Mitchell: One More Please
by Dan McClenaghan
Saxophonist Tim Berne has gained most of his notoriety via small group recordings, with ensembles such as Big Satan, Hard Cell, Snakeoil and Science Friction. His partnership with ECM Records, beginning with 2012's Snakeoil--after a few sideman contributions on the label--lifted his profile, deservedly. His approach to making music might be called “out there in deep ...
Jon Irabagon: Rising Sun
by Mike Jurkovic
Since his days with bassist Moppa Elliot's maddeningly inventive Mostly Other People Do the Killing, first-generation Filipino-American saxophonist Jon Irabagon has seemed to be on the periphery of the larger jazz world looking in. His big surging tone instantly and reverently recalls late era John Coltrane and has been associated with fellow adventurers Dave Douglas, Ralph ...
Hot vs. Cool: A Battle of Jazz + New Releases
by David Brown
A battle of bands this week, as we spin Leonard Feather's 1952 recording Hot vs. Cool: A Battle of Jazz. This double 7" EP featuring a bop group led by Dizzy Gillespie and a trad jazz band led by Jimmy McPartland facing off on the stage of Birdland. Then, new releases from Eve Risser, Marta Warelis, ...
Secret People: Secret People
by John Sharpe
Even though he doesn't appear on the album, the music of Secret People has an affinity with the warped precision of keyboardist Matt Mitchell. Perhaps not surprising as drummer Kate Gentile forms one half of the duo Snark Horse with Mitchell, who also plays on guitarist Dustin Carlson's leadership debut Air Ceremony (OOYH, 2019), as does ...
Dave Douglas Quintet: Songs Of Ascent Book 1—Degrees
by Dan McClenaghan
“Devotion is not a singular expression. I wanted to come at this from as many directions as the psalms do." Dave Douglas. Trumpeter Dave Douglas released one of the finest recordings of his career in 2010, Spark Of Being (Greenleaf Records), a musical immersion into Mary Shelley's pioneering horror & science fiction novel Frankenstein. ...
Gordon Grdina: Boiling Point
by Mike Jurkovic
For all its unstinting muscularity, feverish virtuosity and concentrated interplay, Canadian guitarist/oudist Gordon Grdina's first of two simultaneous summer releases, Boiling Point, could easily have been entitled Shock and Awe or Scorched Earth or perhaps even Ground Zero. Because as densely and wirily structured as these six Grdina comps are, Lower East Side piano legend Matt ...
