Read "Miren (A Longing)" reviewed by Glenn Astarita


Drummer/percussionist Ravish Momin has bragging rights to this Middle and Far Eastern style of thrusting progressive jazz. Funny, because it seems so natural and untainted, as if it was meant to be. And he doesn't need a bassist, largely due to his booming bass drum sound and polyrhythmic articulations. This trio covers many musical vistas on ...

Ravish Momin's Bombay, Bahrain & Blues Mix

Read "Ravish Momin's Bombay, Bahrain & Blues Mix" reviewed by Mark Corroto


You have to chuckle when you read a music review and the critic drops names and music styles in such an audacious manner that you know he/she has no idea what they are talking about. “The Spanish mellophone player drew heavily from a Transylvanian tradition..."

Ravish Momin's Trio Tarana: Climbing the Banyan Tree

Read "Climbing the Banyan Tree" reviewed by Jochem van Dijk


Drummer-led albums can be somewhat pale affairs. After all, the ability to swing hard and play various grooves does in itself not necessarily suffice to create well-rounded, highly personal pieces of music.
