[ April the 11th, 2025 release on Pyroclastic: Ingrid Laubrock’s “Purposing the Air” ]

By grzech In All That Jazz /   No Comments

“The genius of Laubrock’s compositions lies in the way they balance compositional structure with improvisational freedom.” – Troy Dostert, All About Jazz

Purposing The Air, out April 11, 2025, sets to music 60 brief yet evocative koans for the pairings of Fay Victor/Mariel Roberts, Sara Serpa/Matt Mitchell, Theo Bleckmann/Ben Monder, and Rachel Calloway/Ari Streisfeld (Duo Cortona). Hailed as a “fully committed saxophonist and visionary” by The New Yorker, Ingrid Laubrock has evolved a distinctive, fascinatingly complex and richly layered sonic vocabulary that spans her efforts as an improviser, as leader of her own diverse ensembles or, as in the case of her captivating new album Purposing The Air, as composer and conceptualist for other musicians.

[ April the 4th, 2025 release on Barnyard Records stef.in – Icterus II ]

Miles Davis’ much-touted ‘electric’ period was widely credited with birthing so-called jazz fusion, and because of this, it can be easy for one to forget the true breadth of its influence. A crucial ingredient in Miles’ cauldron of styles during this time was Karlheinz Stockhausen, whom he first heard in 1972 (and later collaborated with in a yet-unpublished session). This fact provides an important reminder that the binding agent in Davis’ singular blend of jazz and rock was experimentation—with texture, electronics, form, and other parameters.

…Song over støv [Song over Dust] draws inspiration from the idea that we are, consciously or unconsciously, always relating to what came before, whether it’s childhood or traditions.”

The boundaries between contemporary art music and folk music are pushed as Apneseth and his all-star ensemble invite listeners into their very own musical universe.

The album can be seen as a continuation of Nattsongar from 2017, where associations with music from around the world strongly influenced the expression. Apneseth drew inspiration from his own childhood both during the creative

Satoko Fujii’s  Tokyo Trio  Dream a Dream to be released on March 28, 2025, via Libra Records

“Satoko Fujii’s Tokyo Trio isn’t even close to being a conventional jazz trio. . . . But it is a Satoko Fujii ensemble in every sense, with the grace, sophistication, surprise and ingenuity found in every other of her ensembles.” — S. Victor Aaron, Something Else!

“Ms. Fujii’s Tokyo Trio has all the requisites for a landmark avant Jazz Improv Trio.” — Grego Applegate Edwards, Gapplegate Music Review

The group has an innate chemistry that allows them to navigate Fujii’s compositions as well as improvise with telepathic unity. It’s an unbeatable combination of individual and collective expression that keeps the music always lively and surprising. The album will be released March 28, 2025 via Libra Records.
