Miles Okazaki: Thisness
by Troy Dostert
A guitarist as freakishly talented as Miles Okazaki demands a listener's full attention. This is the case whether one is parsing his fiendishly complex compositions, or beholding his astonishing technique, or simply taking in all the shifting meters and grooves that permeate his music. From the remarkably ambitious Work (Volumes 1-6), his self-released solo document in ...
MetJazz 2022
by Neri Pollastri
Metastasio Jazz Teatro Metastasio Prato Tematicamente intitolata a “La voce e altre follie," la ventisettesima edizione di Metastasio Jazz, rassegna pratese diretta da Stefano Zenni, proprio nella follia si è imbattuta in corso di realizzazione, nella forma di molteplici imprevisti, legati anche alla pandemia, che hanno costretto gli organizzatori a rivoluzionare in ...
Daniel Rorke, Hello Cacus & Previews
by Maurice Hogue
Saxophonist Daniel Rorke, originally from Australia, then NYC, Scandinavia and now in Dublin Ireland, dropped some music on OMJ recently and tracks from different trios plus a stint in a crazy Icelandic big band are featured. Two very important alto saxophonists have new recordings on the way and those are previewed--Ornette Coleman's first two releases for ...
Tony Malaby, Tania Gill & The Gathering
by Maurice Hogue
I decided to lay out for most of this last episode of 2021 and just let the music roll. There are a couple of new releases in the mix, one from Tony Malaby and a somewhat revamped Sabino and Toronto pianist Tania Gill's Disappearing Curiosities. Definitely check out the great singer, Dwight Trible, and his rendition ...
Steve Coleman and Five Elements: Live at the Village Vanguard Volume II (MDW NTR)
by Vincenzo Roggero
Circa un anno dopo i due set incendiari confluiti nel meraviglioso Live at Village Vanguard Vol. I (PI Recordings, 2018), Steve Coleman e i suoi fidi Five Elements ritornano sul luogo del delitto e danno vita ad un doppio set, se possibile, ancora più entusiasmante. L'ennesimo aggiustamento di formazione, al chitarrista Miles Okazaki succede il fuoriclasse ...

Hence, the following is a top ten list (in no particular order) that highlight some of the superb recordings released during 2021. Steve Coleman ...

Ludovico Granvassu's 2021 Sonic Delights
by Ludovico Granvassu
Jazz is not a competitive sport and “Best Ofs" are misnomers. End of the year listicles have no bearing on the artistic standing of the albums they include, or on those they neglect, just like a five star review doesn't make the album it graces any better than it already is. But, apparently, humans ...
Steve Coleman, Artifacts, Wadada Leo Smith & Weiss/Okazaki
by Maurice Hogue
M-Base in the house when Steve Coleman and Five Elements recorded Volume 2 of their live performances from the Village Vanguard. It's the feature recording in this episode, but it's got company from the very excellent ...and Then There's This by Artifacts (Nicole Mitchell, Tomeka Reid & Mike Reed). This is a superb album. So is ...
Ohad Talmor Trio: Mise En Place
by Mark Corroto
The cry was heard, “nobody said there was going to be math involved!" Sorry kids, the music heard on saxophonist Ohad Talmor's Mise En Place is in fact related to the abstract science of number, quantity, and space, and this is an upper level course on the intricate. Seven of the nine compositions were penned by ...
