Vijay Iyer & Wadada Leo Smith: A Cosmic Rhythm With Each Stroke
by Mark Corroto
The expansion of the mind, or better yet, consciousness, can come from multiple approaches. Prayer, physical activity, hallucinogenic substances, and mathematics are but a few routes. All seem to distillate to one essence, that is quiet, the emptiness of silence. For prayer or meditation, the quiet is obvious. But also, great scientists and athletes tell us ...
Todd Rundgren & Utopia: Live 1978 at The Old Waldorf
by Glenn Astarita
Live 1978 at The Old Waldorf San Francisco venue is a continuation of the Todd Rundgren archive series by UK- based Esoteric Recordings. Previously unreleased, the engineers' remastering effort seems to have paid off, as the overall sound is acceptable; although, the lower-end bass response is a bit weak. This concert was originally recorded for a ...
John O’ Gallagher: The Honeycomb
by Maurizio Zerbo
Da Charlie Parker ad Ornette Coleman, fino al jazz groove contemporaneo. Si potrebbe definire così l'itinerario del viaggio sonoro proposto dall'alto sassofonista newyorchese John O'Gallagher. Il free-bop messo in atto dal suo affiatatissimo trio è sintetizzato da “Extralogical Railman," che rielabora un celebre standard ("Relaxin' at Camarillo") di Bird. Del nucleo tematico preesistente viene cambiato tutto ...

Clipper Erickson: My Cup Runneth Over: The Complete Piano Works of R. Nathaniel Dett
by C. Michael Bailey
It is infrequent that I hear music by an unfamiliar composer that is so fantastically beyond anything I have heard before that when it happens, I am convinced of the Divine. So it is with the piano music of one R. Nathaniel Dett (1882-1943). Dett was an African-American polymath who was the first black to graduate ...
DarkMatterHalo: Darkness Interrupted
by Claudio Bonomi
Hardedge, all'anagrafe Velibor Pedevski, si definisce un sound designer. Non un sound designer qualsiasi. Hardedge è un architetto di suoni elettronici dotato di una sensibilità non comune. È capace di costruire scenari e affreschi apocalittici di una profondità siderale, e quasi mai disturbanti, che si reggono su autentiche colonne soniche. Potremmo definirlo un ...

Cecil Taylor: Garden 2nd Set
by Glenn Astarita
Years after this 1981 performance at a Swiss venue, pianist Cecil Taylor advised producer Werner X Uehlinger that this was his best solo concert, as the 2nd Set chronicles the order of performance and follows up the 2015 reissue of Garden 1st Set (hatOLOGY, 2015). And to cite the often-used movie critic adjective, this concert was ...
Kim Nazarian: Some Morning
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
Kim Nazarian is one of a kind. Sure, there are other singers with lovely voices, great ears and impeccable time, but not many as warm and open on stage; there are even fewer who can phrase a lyric the way she does, so that you believe every word. A founding member of the New York Voices, ...
