Read "In the Moment" reviewed by Jakob Baekgaard

by Jakob Baekgaard

One venue, 28 shows and 48 hours of live, improvised music. These are the ingredients for Chicago-based drummer Makaya McCraven's album In the Moment. However, McCraven, as the producer he also is, has not just thrown some random sounds together. Instead, he has carefully culled, cut and remixed the music into a coherent whole and 19 ...

Vlatko: Subjective Experience in a Commercial Free Zone

Read "Subjective Experience in a Commercial Free Zone" reviewed by Alberto Bazzurro

by Alberto Bazzurro

Vlatko è il quartetto elettrico del vulcanico, iperattivo trombonista losangelino Michael Vlatkovich, qui ripreso in studio fra il marzo e l'aprile 2014.

Fresh Cut Orchestra: From The Vine

Read "From The Vine" reviewed by Glenn Astarita

Sadly, “The Mothers' Suite" compositions relate to the tragic passing of bassist Jason Fraticelli's mother-in-law, shortly before the birth of his ...
