Jason Stein's Locksmith Isidore: After Caroline
by Mark Corroto
By 2018 he doesn't have to do it. Do what? Prove himself, and maybe also demonstrate the bass clarinet worthy of leading an ensemble. Jason Stein has the bona fides these days, proof being his much admired quartet and trio Locksmith Isidore. His trio was the opening act for his sister, comedian Amy Schumer's 10,000-seat arena ...
Tom Abbs & Frequency Response: Hawthorne
by Don Phipps
On his album Hawthorne, Brooklyn-based Tom Abbs showcases his mastery of several instruments and writing styles. Combining free, hard bop, world, and blues styles, Abbs's compositions juxtapose explosive exposés of new music with idioms that hearken back to ancient times. Abbs is joined by Jean Cook and Jenna Barvitski on violin, Brian Settles on ...
The Necks: Body
by Mark Sullivan
Their official biography calls The Necks “one of the great cult bands of Australia," which says more about their fan base than the music they play. But it's still not a bad place to start; certainly, the mesmerizing improvised, slow-moving sound they create together is not likely to attract a mass audience. Like most of their ...
The Necks: Body

Brooklyn Raga Massive: Terry Riley In C
by Mark Sullivan
Brooklyn Raga Massive is a collective of musicians rooted in Indian classical music. That tradition rarely involves an ensemble larger than three or four players. Sitarist Neel Murgai identified Terry Riley's canonical minimalist composition In C--an open scored collection 53 short musical phrases that the players repeat and move through at their own pace--as an accessible ...
Shilpa Ray: Door Girl
by Hrayr Attarian
Singer-songwriter Shilpa Ray brings her signature pitch black humor and intelligent phraseology to the dozen tunes on her 2017 Door Girl. Most of the music bears hints of retro, 1950s, effervescent rock which contrasts with Ray's mordant poetry and her eerie, expressive keyboards with poignancy and to dramatic effect. The introspective “Morning Terrors Nights ...
Arto Lindsay: Cuidado Madame
by Luca Canini
Un disco tutto nuovo dopo tredici anni. Un'attesa lunga, lunghissima. Addolcita è vero da progetti più o meno laterali (la militanza nello sgangherato collettivo Anarchist Republic of Bzzz), da concerti, esibizioni in solo e deviazioni impreviste (Scarcicity, il duo free-noise con il batterista Paal Nilssen-Love), da comparsate su lavori altrui (agli ordini di Lucas Santtana nel ...
