Acid-jazz, hiphop and all cut up. Polyrhythms and impressionistic lyrics about Jazz Age Paris and their fascination with negroes. Post-futurist Ladd continues to offer recombinant culture with Baudrillard's eye to globalism. Vijay Iyer With jazz drummer Guillermo Brown (Matthew Shipp, William Parker). A bit Gil_Scott Heron like. Excellent and engaging. 8 is catchy 1)* herky jerky replaced by boomthud & polyrhythm, free jazz horns 2)* juggernaut of horns and drums 3)* gentle samply drum n piano etc - 7mins 4) African rhythm drives a rap 5)** rap on the situation today 6) horn duet goes space afro prog 7) mash up 1minute 8)** Beyonce in gold lamme' 3mins 9) repeating piano figure, leisurely nightmare 10) minimal instrumental, chopped up 4 mins 11) a big mess of words and crashing - BANANA! 5mins | ||
