New #review today: "We have seen master guitarist #FrédériclÉpée in a variety of settings, from the full-on #ProgressiveRock of his band Shylock in the 70s, to Philharmonie in the 90s, to the instrumental guitar rock of Yang in the post-2000 era, to the occasional solo album released along that same trajectory. His latest solo release Contre Courant is cut from a similar cloth as his 2019 album The Empty Room." #ExposeOnline #CuneiformRecords http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/frederic-lEpee-contre-courant-3.html

New #review today: "With #MikeJohnson’s solo debut, fans of #AvantProgressive rock have a lot to celebrate. Johnson is, of course, the driving force behind all those wonderful #ThinkingPlague albums, and The Gardens of Loss has many qualities in common with those, starting with #ElaineDiFalco’s vocals. Johnson’s compositional sense is entirely intact, only expanded with more diverse instrumentation." #ExposeOnline #CuneiformRecords #ProgressiveRock #ChamberRock http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/mike-johnson-the-gardens-of-loss-2.html

New #review today: "#BalloonsForTheDog was a band based in suburban Maryland that was active in the late 70s and early 80s. Their combination of #ArtRock, conceptual theater, humor, and social commentary drew them a cadre of loyal fans but was just too weird for mainstream audiences." #ExposeOnline #CuneiformRecords http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/balloons-for-the-dog-wicked-forms-of-old-snow-2.html

A Love Supreme & Meditations by A Love Supreme Electric, released on Cuneiform Records in 2020.

Some records tell you what’s what. That’s not a bad thing: there’s a place in music for reportage, for commentary, for what’s going on. But A Love Supreme Electric, the collaborative project between Vinny Golia, John Hanrahan, Henry Kaiser, Wayne Peet, Mike Watt, and John Coltrane’s immortal spirit, starts from a different place.
“What if?” it asks.

In fact, ALSE asks “What if?” over and over again, joyously interrogating the twin templates of Coltrane’s A Love Supreme and Meditations from a kaleidoscopic array of angles. All five performers weigh in with their solo perspective, but the magic is that the listener is invited to contribute, too. ...

New #review today: "It’s been a while since the last #RevolutionarySnakeEnsemble album, Live Snakes from 2014, but #KenField and company are back with Serpentine, which was also recorded live (mostly). But with music like this, live is probably the way to go." #ExposeOnline #jazz #CuneiformRecords http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/revolutionary-snake-ensemble-serpentine-2.html

New #review today: "Hotel Pupik continues the changes in #LedBib that we saw on It’s Morning. The group is now a quartet, with the dual-saxophone front line of #PeteGrogan and #ChrisWilliams that has defined them since the beginning fronting just bass and drums. With the departure of keyboards, the arrangements are a bit less dense, and they continue the focus on sparser and more atmospheric sounds." #ExposeOnline #CuneiformRecords #AvantJazz http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/led-bib-hotel-pupik-2.html

New #review today: "The first #ForgasBandPhenomenon album, Roue Libre, came out in 1997, and we’ve been covering them with each subsequent album. But before forming the Phenomenon, #PatrickForgas put out three albums under the name Forgas, and now #CuneiformRecords has brought us a reissue of the very first one, Cocktail, originally released in 1977." #ExposeOnline #ProgressiveRock #JazzRock #CanterburySound http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/forgas-cocktail-2.html

New #review today: "It might be easy to think of #Skullcap as #JanelAndAnthony plus one — that one being drummer / percussionist #MikeKuhl — but the personnel is where the similarities end, as this trio forms a complete group effort, from the bold compositions to the arrangements and execution." #ExposeOnline #AvantJazz #ProgressiveRock #JanelLeppin #AnthonyPirog #CuneiformRecords http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/skullcap-snakes-of-albuquerque-3.html

Interactivity by Tatsuya Nakatani & Shane Parish, released on Cuneiform Records in 2020.

"Tatsuya Nakatani is an avant-garde percussionist and composer...

Shane Parish is a guitarist from Asheville, North Carolina...

Interactivity is the second album by the duo. The master percussionist and guitarist have been collaborating for nearly a decade, performing improvised duets in Parish’s hometown of Asheville, North Carolina, whenever Nakatani’s annual world tour brought him through the Appalachian Mountain town...

Interactivity was recorded in performance at Static Age in late spring, 2018 and finds both players at the top of their game in a live setting, featuring telepathic communication, deep listening, texture, and explosive energy. "

New #review today: "Sweet. Two discs of vintage #JohnSurman, as the bandleader of a ten-piece ensemble, recorded live in April of ‘69 in Hamburg. Last year, Surman celebrated his 80h birthday, and what a long and varied career he has to show for it, but in 1969 he was just getting started as a bandleader after working as a sideman for the likes of Mike Westbrook, Peter Lemer, Ronnie Scott, John McLaughlin, Chris McGregor, and others." #ExposeOnline #CuneiformRecords #jazz http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/john-surman-flashpoints-and-undercurrents-3.html
