Jeremy Pelt – “Sir Carter” (Stream)

February 9, 2018 By Anthony Dean-Harris

Every year, trumpeter Jeremy Pelt releases a new album, and every year it's an album that stays on folks' minds all year round. Typically, he releases his albums in January on the High Note label, but 2018's entry, Noir en Rouge - Live in Paris, needed just a touch more cooking and simmering, apparently, since it's set to release February 16th. Still, based on the first single … [Read more...]

Matthew Stevens – ‘Preverbal’

April 6, 2017 By Anthony Dean-Harris

What is the actual difference between adventurous, guitar-based contemporary jazz music and instrumental post-rock?

Corey King – “Ibaraki” (Stream)

August 12, 2016 By Sébastien Hélary

Corey King (Esperanza Spalding, Takuya Kuroda, ERIMAJ) is set to drop his highly anticipated Ropeadope debut Lashes September 9. The genre-defying record stems from exposure to Germany’s dance culture while on tour with Spalding in 2013. The end goal? Make music that will make people move. To accomplish this feat, King recruited two live bands made up of contemporary luminaries … [Read more...]
