| | Steve Kuhn Promises Kept CD (2004)
Iron Stone CD music
$15.55 The lineup on Promises Kept says it all: Steve Kuhn with strings. Kuhn is a jazz pianist whose recordings may have been out of the jazz mainstream for most of the five decades his career has spanned, but it hardly matters. Kuhn's style is signature, though his explorations have taken him to many different terrains in the world of jazz, from knotty post-bop to pointillism ...

| | Enrico Rava Tati CD (2005)
Iron Stone songs
$14.99 Enrico Rava's restrained trumpet playing has been regarded in modern times as perfectly reflective of the ECM sound. It is wrapped in European classical music while displaying a lyricism that goes beyond strict tonality, reaching for a soulful arena that only he can claim in the post-Miles Davis era. The emerging pianist Stefano Bollani joins Rava and veteran drummer ...
| | Nik Bartsch's Ronin Stoa CD (2006)
Iron Stone album
$13.79 He may call it "Zen Funk," but the real question is, what the hell is this? Swiss pianist and composer Nik Bartsch's Ronin have issued their ECM debut, Stoa, the label well-known for its icy sounding, spacious jazz. ECM has been pushing the envelope for nearly 40 years, but with Ronin, they've pushed it beyond the pale into God knows what. This is not a bad thing, however. Ronin was a group created with the idea of playing live. And over the course of three previous records issued only in Europe, the band -- birthed in 2001 when Bartsch was 30 -- plays a highly disciplined ...

Iron Stone album
$13.69 Jazz banjo virtuoso Alison Brown has carved out a unique musical niche for herself by combining a number of conventional elements in a personal way: her style of jazz is quite straight-ahead without sounding either old-fashioned or even really traditional, and her compositions are richly complex without ever sounding avant-garde or even self-consciously progressive. Perhaps most impressive of all, she ...
| | Bone Cave Ballet The Echo Of Entropy CD (2009)
Iron Stone CD music
$10.15 "Tremulous, wailing Sleater Kinney-esque vocals, pounding drums, and a metal sensibilityā -Seattle Weekly, 9-5-08With haunting vocals, penetrating lyrics and angular musical backing Bone Cave Ballet submerges their audiences into the tidal force of tense and eruptive waters that Joseph Conrad could write sharks into. With their freshman release āEcho of Entropyā, BCB has masterfully captured that musical experience while refusing to compromise a sound that is all their own...a sound which simultaneously contrasts and integrates the sweet and subtle, the eerie darkness and the rock hard.The Seattle band began as a reconnection between ex-band mates when following her solo release, "5 Handcreams for Sandy",vocalist/guitarist Jacqui Gilroy and fellow Detroit transplant drummer Kelly Mynes decided to rekindle the musical flame. In BCB, Jacqui Gilroy composes the sound skeletons; weaving the language, melody and pulses of the human experience from the womb to the tomb. This frame gets fleshed out by Mynes, bassist Chris Vena, ...
