Annex: Beyond competition (eternally in space):
After quite a long time – sorry for that – a selection of recent releases and reissues that somehow were important to me the last month.
So let´s start with some new releases by We Jazz and International Anthem.
The first one is a lovely 7″ by a new quartet from southern finland called Oaagaada (We Jazz)
consisting of Tuure Tammi, trumpet / Sami Pekkola, sax / Tero Kemppainen, bass / Simo Laihonen, drums. Both tracks are quite wild and continue the typical postmodern freejazz / we jazz sound.
//
Another typical sound is created by chicago´s International Anthem, whose releases since their beginning a few years ago are already milestones in eclectic fresh jazz and club sounds. So here´s a new one by Aquiles Navarro & Tcheser Holmes with the 12″ Heritage of the Invisible II.
The label calles it “Telepathic Afro-Caribbean improvisational trumpet-and-percussion”. Nothing more to say than that.
//
Slightly older but still fresh is this little 12″ gem from Anteloper released on International Anthem, a collaboration by Jaimie Branch & Jason Nazary with guest vocals by Young Solé, a 2019 tour tape now available on vinyl.
//
Let´s continue with the amazing Nat Birchall from Manchester who meets for this record Al Breadwinner and they play some spiritual – nybinghi reggae – dub jazz.
Whatever you might call it, it´s a match made in Heaven.
//
Lets go to Gondwana records another thrilling “jazz” label whose releases are amazingly diverse and eclectic. So here´s Paradise Cinema.
The project consists of Jack Wyllie (Portico Quartet/Szun Waves) and the senegal based percussionists Khadim Mbaye and Toms Sambe. One track is called “Possible Futures” and I guess it´s a good title for these days desperate needed hope for future music and life. Hypnotic.
//
From Gondwana here´s a 2020 best of charity compilation for homeless people´s shelters, one track from Paradise Cinema is featured , too..
//
Going back to the legends of Jazz music is another way to understand what jazz is all about. So here´the third part of Planet Ilungas marvellous journey deep into the music of Franco´s and Vicky´s O.k. Jazz. Vol III focusses on the boleros of O.K. Jazz and is my personal favorite of the three wonderful designed records of congolese jazz.
//
At last for today here´s Horace Tapscott, another legend playing here with Michel Session 1989 in Avignon. Simply stunning.
