New #review today: "For the second #Tryon release, composer Kellen Mills has further refined and expanded the scope of his work from Läuterung. Freaky Squash Baby features a large ensemble... some of the music is elaborately arranged with complex interactions between the parts very much in the mode of such 20th Century composers as Stravinsky, but informed by a significant dose of #FrankZappa’s more expansive work." #ExposeOnline #AvantRock #AvantJazz #RIO http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/tryon-freaky-squash-baby-2.html

New #review today: "#Leagus is the duo of Herborg Rundberg (piano, vocals) and Kristian Svalestad Olstad (guitar, vocals), formed in 2013 at the Tromsø Conservatory. Apparently their work came to the attention of the eight-member #jazz group, which commissioned Flora Eallin from them in 2021. This music for an extended group falls into the same realm as Jaga Jazzist, Beats & Pieces Big Band, Nick Bärtsch, and even Sigur Rós..." #ExposeOnline #AvantJazz http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/leagus-nordnorsk-jazzensemble-flor-eallin-2.html

New #review today: "The Danish group called #Svin has been around for a while now, starting as a quartet in 2011 and continuing as a trio since 2018. Henrik Pultz Melbye (saxes, keyboards, EWI), Lars Bech Pilgaard (guitar, keyboards), and Thomas Eiler (drums) produce music that is not observant of standard categories, infusing lots of electronics and power into something that crosses between jazz and rock." #ExposeOnline #AvantJazz #AvantRock http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/svin-introducing-svin-2.html

New #review today: "This is the third album by #Gadadu, a six-piece from New York City with an interesting sound that straddles the worlds of #jazz, chamber, symphonic, vocal pop, #experimental songcraft, and more, following earlier efforts in 2018 and 2020. By any measure, the band fuses all these elements seamlessly into a compact and easily likeable whole that is at once expressive and beautiful." #ExposeOnline #ArtPop #AvantJazz http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/gadadu-the-weatherman-is-wrong-3.html

New #review today: "After years of existing as a quartet, #KuhnFu nearly doubled for Tantalos, and now they present a double CD set called Jazz Is Expensive / Live in Saalfelden, with the two halves released as separate downloads. Starting with the live album, which was recorded at Jazzfestival Saalfelden on August 20, 2021, the group consists of six players." #ExposeOnline #jazz #AvantJazz http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/kuhn-fu-vii-jazz-is-expensive-live-in-saalfelden-2.html

Here's a review of Anime Mundi by #SanaNagano. "Sana Nagano’s regular Smashing Humans combo is still a going concern (and I hope to hear more from them sometime), but it’s great to hear a different side of her talent." #ExposeOnline #improvisation #jazz #AvantJazz #JazzViolin http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/sana-nagano-anime-mundi-2.html

Here's a new #review for two related releases, or one split release.

Here's a new #review for Ensemble Volcanic Ash by #JanelLeppin. "The seven-piece ensemble has been in the works for several years, and operates firmly in jazz territory, although it’s probably not like any jazz you’ve heard before, unless you’re on a steady diet of Alice Coltrane, which this does bear some similarities to..." #ExposeOnline #jazz #cello #AvantJazz http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/janel-leppin-ensemble-volcanic-ash-3.html
