Ricardo Villalobos / Max Loderbauer: Re: ECM
by John Kelman
The concept of remix-- using studio technology to deconstruct, reshape and reconstruct extant recordings--is far from new, but the past decade has seen a considerable expansion of purview. Once more closely aligned with the club scene, remixes are no longer solely about relentless beats for dancing; instead, as Norway's Punkt Festival has been demonstrating for seven ...
North Sea Jazz Festival, July 8-10, 2011
by R.J. DeLuke
North Sea Jazz FestivalJuly 8-10, 2011AhoyRotterdam, The Netherlands The North Sea Jazz Festival in the Netherlands is staggering in size, touted as the world's largest indoor jazz festival and that's certainly a good bet. With 13 stages running from late afternoon until the early morning hours, it's far more than a ...
Wolfert Brederode Quartet: Post Scriptum
by John Kelman
At a time when the world is becoming an increasingly busy and, in some cases, hostile place, it's easy to forget the power of music, to create a space away from the demands and stresses of day-to-day life, where it's possible to just sit back, absorb, and become absorbed in something transcendent. Music doesn't always have ...
Jazzahead! 2011
by John Kelman
Jazzahead Bremen, Germany April 28-May 1, 2010 Jazz may be a marginalized genre with shrinking CD sales and, at least in North America, a painfully low profile in popular media, but just a few days at Jazzahead in Bremen, Germany, leave a much different impression. A trade show for all ...
Colin Vallon Trio: Rruga
by John Kelman
Colin Vallon Trio Rruga ECM Records 2011 As much as many artists have a clear idea of where they are and where they're going, there's no denying the value of a strong producer. Colin Vallon's first two trio discs--2004's Les Ombres, on the small Swiss NotsiNOISY label, and 2007's Ailleurs, ...
Mats Eilertsen Trio: Elegy
by John Kelman
He's best-known internationally for his work on ECM recordings by artists including guitarist Jacob Young, pianist Wolfert Brederode, and, most recently, pianist Tord Gustavsen, with whom he's been touring in support of Restored, Returned (2010). But while these associations might suggest a bassist disposed to gentler forms and understated freedom, they're only two of Mats Eilertsen's ...

Wolfert Brederode: Currents
by Dan McClenaghan
The word “aesthetic" is defined by the American Heritage Dictionary as: “Of or pertaining to the sense of the beautiful." That word is often paired with the much praised Munich-based ECM Records, a label that delves deeply into beautiful sounds. And its offerings are often (though not always) of a beauty of the spare and ethereal ...
Wolfert Brederode: Currents
by Budd Kopman
With the intensely emotive Currents, pianist Wolfert Brederode makes his ECM debut, having appeared on vocalist Susanne Abbuehl's April (ECM, 2001) and Compass (ECM, 2006) and been deeply involved in their sound. Now leading instead of accompanying, Brederode has written (with one exception, “As You July Me," sharing credits with Abbuehl) a set ...
Wolfert Brederode: Currents
by John Kelman
Along with Norwegian trumpeter Mathias Eick's first disc as a leader, The Door, ECM's North American release of pianist Wolfert Brederode's debut on the same day is more than happenstance. At 34, Brederode is a few years older than Eick, but the two share much in common. Both are firmly committed to melody as a strong ...
