Slobber Pup: Pole Axe
by Mark Corroto
Imagine the avant improv metal trio Slobber Pup, which is made up of keyboardist Jamie Saft, guitarist Joe Morris, and drummer Balazs Pandi, crafting a homemade greeting card that says, “you complete us" to give to Mats Gustafsson. As heartwarming and moving as that gesture is, the inclusion of the Swedish saxophonist on the trio's sophomore ...
The Spanish Donkey: Raoul
by Luca Muchetti
Una tempesta di suoni, un incantesimo sonoro dai profili affilati e dal cuore elettrico. Ecco cosa è Raoul, ultimo nato in casa Spanish Donkey, la formazione composta da Joe Morris, Jamie Saft e Mike Pride. Tre musicisti che ergono un muro sonoro che, sebbene non originalissimo, sa affascinare l'ascoltatore sensibile a quel filone della musica che ...
Kirk Knuffke: Arms & Hands
by Mark Corroto
Sometime, watch children as they eat the M&Ms. They will separate the colors into several piles--green, red, brown, yellow, orange, and blue. It's not that each color tastes different, except for maybe blue--I don't remember ever seeing that color before. Nonetheless, they go about savoring each color batch as an independent experience. Those little candies come ...
Guitarist Joe Morris Joins Forces With Keyboardist Jamie Saft & Drummer Mike Pride On Microtonal Blues Project Raoul
The sound of Joe Morris’ electric guitar, with distortion pedal set on stun and wah-wah pedal fully engaged, colliding with Jamie Saft’s droning, microtonal organ and Mike Pride’s thunderous free drumming approach to the kit creates a mind-numbing maelstrom on The Spanish Donkey's RAOUL, the improvising trio’s debut on RareNoiseRecords. A follow-up to XYX, their 2011 ...
Seth Meicht and the Big Sound Ensemble: Live in Philadelphia
by John Sharpe
Philly tenor saxophonist Seth Meicht has created a crack little big band which combines nifty arrangements and adventurous expression in his Big Sound Ensemble. Meicht has largely passed under the critical radar since Illumine (CIMP, 2006), surfacing only for the occasional high profile gig in NYC, including the 2009 Vision Festival. This recording in front of ...
Yoni Kretzmer: This Is Our Very First Album Together
by Glenn Astarita
Distinguished Israeli improvising, avant-jazz saxophonist Yoni Kretzmer has several albums to his credit with fellow countrymen and American notables, such as drummers Mike Pride, Andrew Drury and bassist Jason Ajemian. Since he's recently moved to Brooklyn, N.Y., the artist ingratiates his faculties into the region's intensely fertile improvising scene, where almost anything goes when the studio ...
Jonathan Moritz Trio: Secret Tempo
by Vincenzo Roggero
Libera improvvisazione che sgretola i fondamenti strutturali del jazz, l'amore per la musica classica e per i lavori orchestrali di Webern, il canto degli uccelli, il suono possente di Ben Webster. Sono questi gli elementi che ispirano Secret Tempo, album per Hot Cup licenziato dal Jonathan Moritz Trio. Ed è una vera gioia ...
RareNoise To Release Plymouth in April
Following on the heels of their successful collaboration on 2013's Slobber Pup, one of the most intensely throbbing releases in the RareNoise catalog, keyboardist Jamie Saft and guitarist Joe Morris have reunited for another potent and provocative offering in Plymouth. Joining them on the three expansive pieces that comprise this purely improvised set are the indelible ...
