Derek Bailey Tribute Band
*2023 stock* "For Derek Bailey, improvisation was an end unto itself. He considered the artistic practice to be so sacrosanct that he almost viewed recording as a perversion. Why preserve for posterity a musical act that is meant to be experienced in the moment? Fortunately for us, the most unique improviser to ever strike against six strings has left behind plenty of recordings for us to puzzle over, thanks in large part to percussionist Andrea Centazzo’s label Ictus. One particular record, Dro…
The Other Shore
"Livin' Right is a product of the amazing NYC loft scene of the 1970s, where players from around the world gathered in a rare period of community, harmony, and creativity, a time when a relative unknown from California could meet and play with the great musicians on this disc. William Parker was already a phenomenon at the time, but there was no way to predict the depth of his amazing ultimate contribution to music. Denis Charles had already been on pivotal albums with Sonny Rollins, Cecil Taylo…

Echoes from Rudolph's
restocked, Mindblowing reissue!! "The impact of Carter's music stems from his ability to straddle freely the old and the new - combining a genuine melodic/rhythmic impulse with explorations of a more purely rhythmic/harmonic nature. His tone on his instruments, especially the clarinet, is round and wooden like a song, yet there's a certain revelry in sound - textural and timbral - for its own sake. He likes to work with contrast, moving in and out of tempo, altering the flow through dynam…
Night in Europe
Featuring Martin Kuchen on alto sax, Johan Berthling on bass and Steve Noble on drums. I haven't heard this yet but I must admit that Martin Kuchen is one the best, most creative, diverse and inspired saxists we've heard from Scandinavia in the past decade. Check out any discs from his bands: Angles, Exploding Customer, Trespass Trio or All Included and you will hear some of the best playing around! Bassist Johan Berhling is also a member of Angles, Fire! Orchestra and projects with Ken Va…
Intricacies
The title's a good one – given the complex layers of sound and interaction going on here – as this avant quintet find a way to come together in these varied and compelling ways over the course of the long improvisations in the set! Pianist Alexander Von Schlippenbach may well be the biggest name in the group – but all players contribute equally, and the lineup also includes Frank Paul Schubert on alto and soprano sax, Paul Hubweber on trombone, Clayton Thomas on bass, and Willi Kellers o…

Turbina Anthem
"It's almost a given that any new release on the Lithuanian No Business label is going to be a bit out of the ordinary. As the catalogue grows, so does its depth and breadth. Turbina Anthem vouchsafes that proposition, comprising an unusual guitar and trumpet duet by two Portuguese improvisers who deserve a wider audience. Trumpeter Sei Miguel boasts a discography stretching back to 1998 in the company of compatriots, but in recent years has made a number of appearances with American free guitar…
