Philip Catherine & Martin Wind – New Folks (2014) [Official Digital Download 24bit/44,1kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · January 10, 2018 · Comments off

Belgian jazz guitar legend Philip Catherine and German bassist Martin Wind come from different generations but share a common love for melodic jazz with swing roots. On this album, the two musicians complement each other perfectly: Catherine’s playing is technically unique and never seems to stop revealing new lyrical guitar sounds, but it is not merely his technique and dexterity that set him apart. What makes him unique is his acoustic guitar sound and an improvisational style based not on other guitarists, but on some of the great horn players in jazz. Wind’s bass is always strong yet elegant and lush on this collection of standards and originals.

The album was produced by the Hamburg hip-hop artist and rapper Samy Deluxe and features a duet with Nena’s eldest surviving son, Sakias. Although published on Nena’s own record label, The Laugh and Peas Company, distribution rights were agreed with Sony Music, 22 years after the company dropped Nena as a recording artist following the indifferent performance of her second solo album “Bongo Girl”.

Neil Young & Promise Of The Real – The Visitor (2017) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Studio Masters By admin · January 8, 2018 · Comments off

Neil Young’s first two collaborations with Promise of the Real, the band led by Willie Nelson’s son Lukas Nelson, sounded sorta like tethered Crazy Horse albums. But without the free-fall unpredictability of Young’s most reliable backing group of the past five decades, 2015’s The Monsanto Years and the following year’s embellished live record, Earth, came off like more structured attempts to capture Young at his most unhinged and plugged in. Their third record, The Visitor, is more of the same, and like The Monsanto Years and last year’s Peace Trail, it’s a political one, charged through a filter of recent news. (more…)

By the time Miles Davis recorded „The Musings Of Miles“ on June 7, 1955, he’d expanded and refined his approach to the bop idiom which had nurtured him, and the cool approach–which he’d championed. He learned to refine and edit his line, discovered what aspects of his style were derivative and which were truly his own, and, most importantly, zeroed in on his own signature sound and style of phrasing.
