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. Sauter of the infamous free jazz noise band Borbetomagus creates sound often mistaken for guitar ...
I 10 CD nel CD-Player di.... Jeff Albert
by Vincenzo Roggero
01. Jason Roebke -High/Red/Center (Delmark -2014). Trovare un buon equilibrio tra forma e libertà in ensemble di medio/grandi dimensioni è veramente difficile.

Vi è ...
Kyle Bruckmann's Wrack: ...Awaits Silent Tristero's Empire
by Troy Collins
...Awaits Silent Tristero's Empire is an epic four-part suite based on the fictitious songs found scattered throughout celebrated author Thomas Pynchon's early novels V., The Crying of Lot 49, and Gravity's Rainbow.

by Mark Corroto
Conceived in 2011, the electric/acoustic ensemble Made To Break has had the opportunity to tour and evolve as an improvising unit. The result, their third disc recorded in 2013, Cherchez La Femme reveals a truly engaged band. That statement wouldn't be unexpected if we were talking about a rock group or a jazz band for that ...
Dave Rempis/Joshue Abrams/Avreeayl Ra: Aphelion
by Mark Corroto
The blossoming of an artist is a beautiful thing. In order for a musician to thrive in today's jazz world, he must be willing to operate in multiple lineups, go on book tours, organize other musicians' shows, and record and promote his own music. A tall task, but saxophonist Dave Rempis has made the jump from ...
The Rempis / Daisy Duo: Second Spring
by Glenn Astarita
Second Spring is one of two concurrent releases for Chicago reedman Dave Rempis' young Aerophonics Records label. The other outing Aphelion, features the artist's regular working trio. Here, Rempis aligns with longtime kindred spirit, drummer Tim Daisy for a rather aggressive, high-impact duo framework. At times Daisy's busy and highly active drumming patterns could easily be ...
Tim Daisy: A Fine Day In Berlin
by Mark Corroto
Blender drinks sometimes disguise their ingredients. A little peanut butter and banana tossed into your kale and spinach smoothie might provide just the right flavor camouflage. Likewise, adding drummer Tim Daisy (and his compositions) into a piano trio recording will produce results that are anything but standard trio fare. Daisy, one of Chicago's go-to ...
The Dude Abides
by Mark Corroto
To paraphrase Jeffrey Lebowski, aka The Dude (or El Dudarino, if you are not into the brevity thing), “I've had a rough night, and I hate the fucking Grateful Dead, man." Actually, The Dude said the “Eagles" (and I guess I'm obliged to agree with him), but for me the Dead seem to always get under ...
Made To Break: Provoke
by Glenn Astarita
Each of these three extended pieces is dedicated to great twentieth century innovators who specialize in distinct disciplines. Led by Chicago outside jazz luminary Ken Vandermark, the quartet derives inspiration from avant-garde composer John Cage, architect, author Buckminster Fuller and philosopher, media theorist Marshall McLuhan. And as expected, the compositions are not thin or one-dimensional by ...
