Meditations
Following the genre-redefining revelations of A Love Supreme in 1965, John Coltrane began a dramatic shift toward spiritual free jazz, abandoning familiar forms in favor of a more abstract sonic palette and bold questions he'd spend the rest of his life and career pursuing. Meditations, released by Impulse! in 1966, continues that emotional throughline while retaining, for the last time in full, the classic quartet that propelled Trane to greatness: pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison an…
Dimensions & Extensions
A saxophonist of striking originality, Sam Rivers’ music had a strong avant-garde undercurrent though he kept a foot planted firmly in post-bop and the blues, a sound heard to great effect on his masterful 1964 debut Fuchsia Swing Song. The last of Rivers’ four highly-distinctive Blue Note albums, 1967’s Dimensions & Extensions, is fascinating for the presence of trumpeter Donald Byrd who makes a rare foray into the avant-garde alongside Rivers on tenor saxophone, soprano saxophone, and flute, J…
Sympathetic Resonance
The “Sympathetic Resonance” LP by Momen is released on Unheard Of Hope and marks the debut of the London-based duo. Momen consists of Iván Muela (piano, guitar, electronics) and Nat Philipps (saxophone, electronics); in eight movements they explore a field of tension between restraint and catharsis. Sonic reference points range from Bach and Ryuichi Sakamoto to experiences in post-punk bands, giving the pieces an unusual blend of classical melodic lines, jazzy improvisation, and electronically s…
Deep Drive 2+
The identity of Deep Drive comes in large part from the way Peter Zummo moves through the world. Using his smartphone, he records daily fragments: of daydreams and conversations, signage and slogans, moments that that strike him as insightful, odd, amusing, thereby creating a sonic collage of rhythms, melodies and voices. His deep baritone is imbued with laconic humour, and Deep Drive"s track titles riff off his messaging. "Prepare For Docking" refers to the Staten Island ferry and the spectacle…
Song of the Night Mists
The writer Max Sebald often pondered over the nature of human memory, specifically, how our thoughts and desires - and their results - overlap and mutate over time. In A Place in the Country, he writes of the significance of what see as “similarities, overlaps and coincidences”. Are they the “delusions” of the self and senses, or manifestations of “an order underlying the chaos of human relationships, [...] which lies beyond our comprehension”?
Song of the Night Mists, the new album by post-clas…
Stills and Remains

Logrende tunger
Tip! “Logrende tunger” documents the first meeting between accordionist Kalle Moberg and saxophonist Kei Matsumaru — both extraordinary instrumentalists who pay great attention to the purely sonic qualities of their instruments, but also share a profoundly complimentary understanding of harmony and form. The duo was introduced by mutual friend and colleague Jim O’Rourke, whose inner ear suggested that the two might create something special together. And indeed, the recording O’Rourke made of the…

The Heart Centre
A powerful "electric Miles" sounding band reinterprets a couple of classics - In A Silent Way and Freedom Jazz Dance - and adds some wholly contemporary improvisation to the mix."2026 Is Miles and Coltrane's Centenary year and if Jazz music needs any Gods then surely they fit the bill without question. When I heard In a Silent Way for the first time back in 1970 when I was 17 (incidentally that was the first year I heard Coltrane as well) it truly was music like nothing I had ever heard before.…
Intervallo
Intervals of waiting, in the in-between mind, strumming a keyboard as if for the first time. From sample to simple, child to child, womblike cocoon when awake, the world crumbling at night. They "dream the dream forward”, these lullabies. "Intervallo" is the second release by Teresa Cos on Futura Resistenza. It is no coincidence that it bears the same name as the last song in her previous one (Karnofsky's Score, RESCD005). What was then a reflection on the interval between diagnosis and death, i…
