Steve Lehman: Sélébéyone

Read "Sélébéyone" reviewed by Luca Canini


Due sarebbero i modi più appropriati e coscienziosi di iniziare questa recensione. Il primo: una rapida carrellata sui precedenti tentativi di contaminazione tra jazz e hip hop (entrambi i generi intesi nel senso più ampio e inclusivo possibile). Da Steve Coleman e Greg Osby alle lucide visioni di Mike Ladd e Vijay Iyer, dal Miles Davis ...

Ralph Alessi: Quiver

Read "Quiver" reviewed by Stefano Merighi


Il quartetto di Ralph Alessi mantiene due coordinate espressive ben distinte. Dal vivo, il repertorio ben compatto, per lo più introspettivo, si accende con una passione inaspettata, che realizza dunque una concezione dialettica della musica. Il magistero tecnico dei solisti si afferma a partire da sobri materiali di partenza e si evolve con irresistibili conversazioni e ...

The Inner Spectrum of Variables

Read "The Inner Spectrum of Variables" reviewed by Enrico Bettinello


Ok, proviamoci. Proviamo a parlare di questo disco uscendo dalle convenzioni che di solito si adottano quando ci si pone di fronte a un percorso musicale come quello di Tyshawn Sorey. Sorey non dovrebbe avere bisogno di troppe presentazioni. Oddio, magari in un'Italia del jazz mediamente poco curiosa di quello che sta oltre ...

Eric Revis Trio: Crowded Solitudes

Read "Crowded Solitudes" reviewed by John Sharpe

Skordatura PE: Empty The Headbin

Read "Empty The Headbin" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The Belgian quarter has altered their name, actually shortened it from Skordatura Punkjazz Ensemble to Skordatura PE. They still are jazz artists playing punk jazz, not just punks playing jazz. There is an important distinction here. You see they can play, no really play. Their Punkjazz is that of Jaco Pastorious, Mike Stern, and Wayne Krantz-- ...

Michele Polga: Little Magic

Read "Little Magic" reviewed by Luigi Sforza


In quest'ultima fatica discografica Michele Polga insieme alle sue pronunciate qualità di tenor sassofonista conferma ampiamente il suo appassionato orientamento estetico -già dichiarato nei precedenti lavori a suo nome.
