Craig Matsumoto Reviewed 2003-10-05 | ||
Snapshots of Chicago's avant-jazz scene. Focuses on structured jazz with creative composing and soloing (as opposed to totally free, abstract improv). Tracks 7 and 8 are already in the KZSU library; the others are new to us. 1- Mid/fast clunky rhythm, studious but playful. With sax and vibraphone 2*- Cool modern bebop, mid/fast. Fast blurry sax solo. 3*- Scrambly fast avant-jazz led by sax. 4- Calm bassline beneath spastic drums & quiet rambling guitar 5- Mid/slow carnival waltz, w/cranky guitar and effects 6*- Calm and pretty guitar/drum duet 7*- Midtempo, restrained trio led by fluid and expressive sax 8- Midtempo wandering, vaguely melodic 9- Slow clarinet and bass 10*- Fast big-band attack, includes calmer but fast guitar solo 11- Nervous chatter: rapid sax pulses and electronic blips 12- Soft, nearly romantic. Nice smoky sax 13- Mid/fast fluttery improv: sax/piano/drums |
