Exactly what you would expect from Fire! while still being creative and exciting.

Rune Grammofon never disappoints.

matt booth and the palindromes

Matt Booth & Palindromes | Breakfast for Dinner Records

The best I can tell this a debut release from a New Orleans jazz outfit. Not very deep into the realm of the free but quite soulful in the modal tradition and not afraid to delve into the atonal. Contains three originals and four (I’m going to go ahead and use the term) standards (two by Paul Motian). Even though Booth is the bassist this kind of reminds me Bill Frisell’s good stuff. Hope this band sees more success. They deserve it.

Spoiler for album art:

Thomas Strønen, Time Is A Blind Guide. Lucus.

Thomas Strønen is a Norwegian drummer and composer. This record is on ECM (Edition of Contemporary Music) but he is well-documented on Rune Grammofon. Rune Grammofon, which is based out of Oslo, has had a distribution deal with ECM, which is based in Munich. Both labels command respect but Rune is more grassroots. It’s a name I’ve associated with great music since the 90s. ECM is often distributed by the big boys (Warner Brothers etc).

Time is a Blind Guide is Strønen‘s band. His latest addition, 31 year old Japanese pianist Ayumi Tanaka, might be his brightest star. Her work on this album is superb. The chemistry is perfect all around but Tanaka’s confident addition takes this to the next level.

This is a great record and is recommended for everyone. The music is thematic and on the less abrasive side of free jazz and avant garde music in general. 5/5 Stars.
