Adam Berenson: What Is This Place?

Read "What Is This Place?" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Pianist/keyboardist/composer Adam Berenson is fascinated with Eberhard Weber, the German jazz player probably better known for his “worked with" listing than his own album releases. The influential bassist/composer has helped to shape and shade and color albums by, among others, saxophonist Jan Garbarek, Pat Metheny, guitarist Ralph Towner and vibraphonist Gary Burton. This is a “minimal ...

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80: Heavier Yet Lays The Crownless Head

Read "Heavier Yet Lays The Crownless Head" reviewed by Chris May


Seun Kuti is a chip off the old block: inheriting his father Fela Kuti's band Egypt 80, pushing at the edges of but staying more or less within Afrobeat's classic instrumental paradigm, unconditionally championing all oppressed and marginalized people, and, not least, enjoying blunts the size of baseball bats. One place where Seun ...

Roots to Branches: Broadway, Jazz, and David Bowie?

Read "Roots to Branches: Broadway, Jazz, and David Bowie?" reviewed by Kurt Ellenberger


In 10th grade, I had a classmate in my French class named Morvan, whom I didn't know at all (in fact, I doubt I ever ever talked to her). She was quiet and introverted but also somewhat defiant and aloof. She always dressed in what was quite outlandish fashion at the time. She was somewhere in ...

Blaer: Pure

Read "Pure" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Swiss pianist Maja Nydegger sounds like a musical first cousin to Nik Bartsch. With his groups Ronin and Mobile, pianist Bartsch create intriguing ritual groove music and Zen funk--descriptors Bartsch has used for his style--stirred up with modern classical sounds. Nydegger, with her group Blaer, crafts a similar mode of expression on her fourth album, Pure, ...
