If you are here, hear this!
You have found the secret cauldron where the next season's issue of jes' grew gets stirred up & out into cupcake molds. Sometimes there is (the) resistance.
Maria Schneider's Data Lords falls into that category.
Whereas Wagner once said “don’t look at the trombones, it only encourages them", I had the sense that Maria Schneider must keep looking at the trombones a lot. And they certainly deliver here.[1]

More memorable titles
- The Sorcerers, In Search of the Lost City of the Monkey God, 2020.
A well-spent hour at Banzzaï (France Musique) led me to this memorable title,[2] which is apparently the soundtrack to a documentary about the (re)discovery of ancient ruins in Mosquitia.[3]
With unexpected citations and funny deformations throughout—wait! what are you doing to Antônio & Luiz in the trunk, there ?!—this made for a doubly smooth tour.
- Sons of Kemet, Your Queen is a Reptile, 2018.
- Shabaka Hutchings (tenor sax) Theon Cross (tuba), Joshua Idehen (poetry), five drummers. Congo Natty (jongleur)
- Arve Henriksen, "Patient Zero", 2017.

- From Towards Language. This Norwegian trumpeter's sound is remarkable. It got me to look back to 1997, when Steve Turre brought sanctified shells to Jazz à Vienne. (Actually, I was originally just looking for big, brassy Rhythm within)
