Caspar Br: Mute Massaker

by Mark Corroto
They say the 21st century has less irony and angst, more sincerity. Maybe if you are riding a huge IPO to Bill Gates-land, yes. Otherwise, I believe it remains the battle of us against McDonalds, Disney, and Brittney Spears. Apparently Caspar Brötzmann feels the same as evidenced by his newly-formed trio. Son of Peter Brötzmann, one ...
Br: Shadows

by Mark Corroto
Peter Brötzmann is reunited with Japanese drummer Shoji Hano and guitarist Keiji Haino for a European tour last March. This live date recorded at Wels, Austria is about as raw and true a musical expression as it gets. Brötzmann has recorded and worked with each musician separately.

It stands alongside such other cardinal classics as Brötzmann's Machine Gun as an aural manifesto of entire musical movement first carved ...
Peter Br: Live in Japan 1982

by Derek Taylor
Improvised Company is a new label created by Kouichi Ohshima to bring to light past recordings by legendary German improviser Peter Brötzmann. Ohshima's affection for Brötzmann's music is apparent not only in this beautifully rendered release, which features an exquisite hand-printed silk-screen cover; but also in a recent book he's published documenting the German's expansive discography. ...
