That sounds outright enlightening.

The Unknowable
Album by Dave Liebman, Adam Rudolph, Tatsuya Nakatani

I mean holy ****. Is the recent output of indescribably good music freaking anyone else out?

Sylvie Courvoisier Trio - D'agala

Funky/swingy tunes that go to some really interesting places. Also apparently Sylvie Courvoisier and Mark Feldman got married yesterday, maybe they'll be doing some more collaborative stuff this year.

Pretty sure they have been married for years.

**Frownland** · 02-27-2018, 10:42 AM

I guess it must have been an anniversary party that I saw someone congratulating them on FB.

Got it playing on spots right now. Sounds dynamite!

Pass If Music by Sam Gendel

This could just as easily go in the ambient drone thread but he has it tagged as free jazz in BandCamp and free is a mighty big word. Not that the genre hasn’t been defined. If anyone is familiar with Gendel please chime in. This is a brief live solo sax recording utilizing extremely processed laptop style tones.

One time, ages ago, back when I was in high school, I went to see Lee Ritenour in concert. The theme of the concert was like hey I can run my guitar through a synthesizer and make it sound like all kinds of things that aren’t a guitar. And I thought, who ****ing cares.

I recommend this very highly. Basically it’s modal jazz with laid back brushes with atonality.

Wart Biter

On my Bandcamp app this is appropriately tagged free jazz. On the non-mobile version it’s tagged noise/drone. Two great things that go great together but this, to my pretty ears, is very aggressive free jazz in the vein of the too infrequently praised Borbetomagus.

Brilliant
