Luca Segala: Cloudriding
by Dave Wayne
Italy continues to be a source a wonderfully original and thoroughly modern jazz. Maybe there's something in the water over there but, for whatever reason, everytime I check my e-mail or snail mail there seems to be something wonderful and Italian in it. I keep hoping for a pair of handmade shoes, a nice shirt, or ...

The name MoonJune Records, which Pavkovic started back in 2001, is taken from the title of a song, “Moon In June," ...
Slivovitz: Hubris
by AAJ Italy Staff
Fortunatamente il gusto del calembour e della provocazione ironica che troviamo nei titoli dei dodici brani di questo album li ritroviamo anche nella musica variegata e un po' pazza che possiamo ascoltare.

Slivovitz: Hubris
by Nic Jones
