Trio Linguae: Signals
by Jack Bowers
Signals introduces the snug and simpatico Trio Linguae ("lin-gwee") from western Canada whose unusual makeup (trumpet, guitar, piano) doesn't hinder it from painting a series of shapely and pleasing portraits in sound.

Alain Mallet Mutt Slang 2: A Wake of Sorrows Engulfed in Rage

Robby Ameen: Diluvio
by Jack Bowers

Diluvio, Ameen's third album as leader of his own ensemble, is clearly no exception to the rule.
