The follow-up to I HAVE THE ROOM ABOVE HER, Paul Motian's lauded collaboration with guitarist Bill Frisell and saxophonist Joe Lovano, 2006's GARDEN OF EDEN finds the veteran jazz drummer leading a much larger ensemble through a remarkable set. As with the previous outing, Motian presents inventive covers of tunes by Jerome Kern (a light, gentle take on "Bill") and Thelonious Monk (the shuffling rendition of "Evidence"), but that's where obvious similarities between the two albums end. GARDEN features the unusual lineup of three guitarists, two saxophonists, and a bassist, all intuitively led by Motian's dynamic and dexterous rhythms. A graceful version of Charles Mingus's "Pithecanthropus Erectus" and the dreamy original "Etude" are but two highlights of this unique album, which reinforces Motian's status as one of the most vital figures in early 21st-century jazz.
Paul Motian Band: Steve Cardenas, Ben Monder, Jacob Bro (electric guitar); Chris Cheek, Tony Malaby (saxophone); Jerome Harris (bass instrument); Paul Motian (drums).
Recording information: Avatar, New York, New York (2004).Down Beat (p.74) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "With flotation devices that seem to hang in mid-air, Motian's drumming and arranging style brings new meaning to the musical term rubato."
JazzTimes (p.122) - "[T]he performances are propelled by simple, folklike melodies....As tenor saxophonists Chris Cheek and Tony Malaby lay down synchronous -- and vaguely accordion-toned -- lines, the rest of the music seems to float and drift behind them."

The delicate imbrication of parts lends these compositions the feel of fragile, shifting houses suspended in air. Motian's drumming is crucial to this aesthetic--light years beyond standard beat-keeping, his approach to time is all suggestion and evocative accent. Aside from the Hammerstein/Kern ...

| | Miles Davis Cellar Door Sessions 1970 CDs (2005) Remastered; Box Set; Special Edition
Garden Of Eden
$87.89
Contains previously unreleased material. Some of the recordings on the CELLAR DOOR SESSIONS were originally released in edited form on the 1971 double-LP LIVE EVIL.
There is an entire universe contained in this box. Sumptuously packaged and scrupulously annotated, CELLAR DOOR SESSIONS 1970 is a six-disc set that documents Miles Davis's extended residency at the Washington, D.C., club. Davis is backed by a group of genius musicians: keyboardist Keith Jarrett, drummer Jack DeJohnette, bassist Michael Henderson, saxophonist Gary Bartz, percussionist Airto Moreira and guitarist John McLaughlin (who appears only on the last two discs). Together they pioneered an ecstatic fusion of jazz, rock, funk, and abstract sound-painting that established the blueprint for the future of progressive music.
Each disc contains a different live set, and while songs are often repeated across the set lists, no two tracks sound the same. The players improvise at a fever-pitch, pushing themselves to endless invention, and the ensemble's interplay--expressionistic, ...

Its a hiphop band called Dirty Cannibal Peasants (D.C.P). Dirty beats and lurky lyrics smashed togehter into a gravy larger than life! Hardcore hiphop straight outta Sweden. Members: Nikodeamus, Scumboy, DJ Technical & Burlin.Three MC's and one DJ rippin the heart out on the so often rotten music business and everyone else we come across. "Can you say hiphop?" "Tonight I went off the grid again to hear my good friend Nik aka DJ Technical and his group that he backs up called DCP @ Mosebacke in soder. It was great to hear hip hop in its raw stage. These cats were just killing it. Giving it that sound from the 90's and no electro beats. Just rapers with thier DJ. It was great to hear them and the flow and beats. Think Young Black Teenagers and House of Pain when they were both hungry for the music! I will keep my eyes and ears open for thes guys again! Well its back to the grid tomorrow! See you all at RAW and then Village!" -Baby J "For extremely high levels of self awerness in thier texts, truly proffesional showmanship on stage and brilliant beats, the first prize in this years "Worldclass" music competition is awarded to Dirty Cannibal Peasants." - Danny Stacy, jury in Worldclass 2008. "A very proffesional band on many levels, on stage it is an delight to watch. D.C.P has an extremely original sound, something that should vouch for further sucess!" Kristian Hermansson, jury in Worldclass 2008. "With a presence on ...
