Chicago Underground Duo: Hyperglyph

Read "Hyperglyph" reviewed by James Taylor


International Anthem is a fitting home for the first Chicago Underground Duo album after an 11-year hiatus. The Chicago-based and buzzworthy label has carried the torch for avant-garde sounds in the city since 2014, and trumpeter and composer Rob Mazurek and drummer Chad Taylor are no strangers to the label's catalog, performing together on multiple IARC ...

Jaga Jazzist: '94 - '14

Read "Jaga Jazzist: '94 - '14" reviewed by John Kelman


It's hard to believe that Norway's Jaga Jazzist is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, in 2014. Not that there aren't other groups that have lasted as long, but look for a group whose primary composer was just 14 when the whole thing began, find a band where five out of its eight current members were ...

Rinascita a Chicago: le gemme dell’etichetta International Anthem

Read "Rinascita a Chicago: le gemme dell’etichetta International Anthem" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi


Non è casuale che l'etichetta indipendente più innovativa nell'attuale panorama jazzistico (e non solo) sia nata e operi a Chicago. È noto infatti che la metropoli dell'Illinois è una delle capitali del jazz, avendo svolto un ruolo centrale in tutta la storia musicale afro-americana, talvolta paritetico con quello di New York.

Dave Rempis: Stringers & Struts

Read "Stringers & Struts" reviewed by John Sharpe


Chicago-based reedman Dave Rempis has hit such a peak of consistency that the number of stars awarded to any particular outing is more down to personal preference than any variation in quality. He's in control of his own destiny as most of his output flows from his own Aerophonic imprint. And he's achieved another high point ...

Jeff Parker: Slight Freedom

Read "Slight Freedom" reviewed by Dave Wayne


One is tempted to think of Jeff Parker as the first guitar anti-hero. He's a subtle player, first and foremost, not given to showy pyrotechnics and rapid-fire flights of plectral fancy. His chameleonic, almost self-effacing, presence on recordings by Tortoise, Joey DeFrancesco, Isotope 217, Fred Anderson, the Brian Blade Fellowship, Peter Erskine, Nicole Mitchell, Yo La ...
