New York, NY - Yagull's official debut for MoonJune Records, 'Kai', finds the band expanding its post-rock chamber soundtrack concept to great effect.

Material Hallucination EngineAxiom1994 Some albums come along without any real intention other than to be what the are yet, without any fanfare, completely change the possible ways music can be perceived, felt and created by those lucky enough to hear them. Today's Rediscovery is one such album, a record that wasn't ...

Kenny Wheeler: Songs for Quintet

Read "Songs for Quintet" reviewed by Robert Bush

by Robert Bush

Bolt: Shuffle

Read "Shuffle" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

by Alberto Bazzurro

Improvvisazione totale per quartetto: ecco quanto ci offre questo album, seguendo una pratica assai diffusa, in cui peraltro--come per l'appunto nel caso specifico--l'ampia conoscenza reciproca dei performer favorisce la messa a punto di forme riconoscibili e, per quanto possibile, risolte. Aiuta anche il fatto che, bene o male, la configurazione del gruppo segue ...
