Roscoe-Yusef Mitchell Lateef-Adam Rudolph-Douglas - Voice Prints - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

With his aspiring sextet, Volker Heuken (vibes) creates compositions and improvisationes between transparent beauty and atmospheric drama. The ensemble is very versatile. You can here the sounds of duets, trios or quartets. Every musician of this young ensemble has enough space to develope their own musical lines, but in the end everything fits together perfectly.

Boston punk veterans Dropkick Murphys link up with rising hardcore band Haywire for an 8-song LP built out of time spent touring together in Europe last fall. Each band contributes three original tracks, plus a cover of the other-Haywire taking on InchThe Boys Are Back,Inch and Dropkick Murphys reworking InchAlways By My Side.Inch The collaboration carried over to the stage during Dropkick Murphys' InchFor the People... In The PitInch St. Patrick's Day Tour which marked the bands 30th Anniversary run this February and March, where both bands shared the bill. A straightforward split that connects two generations of the same city and same scene.

This December 1977 recording features two of the most prominent AACM musicians, Roscoe Mitchell and Anthony Braxton. Mitchell's composition Inchrun the gamut, beginning with the darkly gorgeous opener that features Braxton's contrabass clarinet nestling evocatively beneath the composer's earthy flute, Mitchell's other pieces investigate the sparer, more abstract realm, as the duo's wide variety of reeds populate the sonic environment with scattered moans, squeaks and pops. Overall, this is a fine meeting between two of the most forward-looking thinkers and players in the music. Recommended. Inch - Brian Olewnick, allmusic. Com Anthony Braxton also contributes three compositions.
