Kid Millions & Jim Sauter: Fountain
by Mark Corroto
Fountain, the duo by Jim Sauter and Kid Millions, could easily be mistaken for the work of noise artist Merzbow and Hungarian drummer Balázs Pándi, Japanese guitarist Keiji Haino and Rashied Ali, or guitarist Ed Ricart and Chicago drummer Tim Daisy.

Coltrane, Mozart, l'inverno del '66 e l'assoluto
by Luca Canini
Offering: Live at Temple University È una sublime vertigine quella che fa mancare la terra sotto i piedi quando ci si avvicina, biograficamente e musicalmente, agli ultimi mesi della vita di Mozart. Mesi scanditi da uno straniante e straziante distaccamento dalle cose terrene, dagli affanni e dalle meschinità del quotidiano viennese; mentre le ...
Frank Lowe: Out Loud
by Mark Corroto
Musical archeology has become somewhat of a trend these days. It might be explained, in part by the rebirth of vinyl and the excavation of long out-of-print titles, but also there are scores of devoted collectors who've discovered unpublished recordings of significant artists.

Steve Wilson/Lewis Nash: Duologue
by Dan Bilawsky
Saxophone and drum duos aren't as rare as some might believe, but a good percentage of such encounters are challenging, left-leaning affairs. John Coltrane's edgy encounters with Rashied Ali on Interstellar Space (Impulse!, 1974) emboldened many in the so-called avant-garde to marry these instruments time and again over the ensuing decades, yet few centrists seem as ...
