Nine Rain - Nine Rain

This collaboration, between one of the founders of the famous San Francisco avant-garde group Tuxedomoon, Steven Brown, and his Mexican friends has produced a very interesting result. Although, perhaps not perfect, this somewhat raw mix of rhythms, with melancholic saxophone and occasional bursts of unbridled energy, above all reminds me of Mexico because it's wide palette. If we look, e.g. pictures of Frida Khalo or a plate of Mexican food we will see one thing: an assembly of bright colors and intense flavors, all in one place. We have the same situation here. Full Flavor.
And what to say about all that, except, enjoy your meal :)

African Head Charge - Song of Praise

    Stepping out of the more hermetic sound that this strange band made with this album may make it more receptive and modern, but it also brings some ancient sound forms, archaic tunes and tribal chants. Now, how are this two going together? Well, let's put it this way: If the welder is the master of his job, the weld is barely noticeable. Only so much to feel fine texture under our fingers when we touch it :)

Naked City - Naked City

For Zorn admirers this is an inevitable part of a large and varied career, but for those who don't know who Zorn is, it will be an excursion into something that they could not even imagine :) This powerful blend of rock, jazz, metal and noise, linked with violent strikes of Zorn's saxophone, as well with fantastic assembled team of New York musicians (Fred Frith, Bill Frisell, Wayne Horvitz, Yamatsuka Eye), makes that music here resists all borders and genre limitations and give to us something completely unique.
Just the way I like :)

Jim White - Drill a Hole in That Substrate and Tell Me What You See

A strange beast is this Jim White. Starting to make music in the forties, already formed as an author, with a vision of merging traditional and modern, he gave to us a few great, emotionally high and very advanced recorded country - rock albums. Old and new, on Jim White records are connected in one, while the quality of the melody and lyrics always heating up our senses, guaranteeing satisfaction :)

After all, listen to yourself :)

Cabaret Voltaire - The Crackdown

Although somehow sounds tamed, and for some fans it is a selling of their favorite band, this is really just another logical step in the development of the band, in accordance with the then music flows. After all, a million years away from commercial sound, this excellent album, with its twisted logic, constantly make my brain pulsing in rhythm :)
