(crimsonic / cd, 2010)
This is the third release by the duo of Roger Ebner (sax, wind synth) and William Kopecky (basses, φωνητικά) but in III there is also Craig Walkner who contributes acoustic and electronic cymbals. To those of you familiar with the music of Yeti Rain the dark ambient and prograssive rock elements are still evident. All the musicians are amazingly skilled either when...

Heart Land - Heart Land
(Tequila Sunrise Records, Cream Of Turner Productions / Vynil, cdr, 2010)
I feel really blessed, when I receive releases that their labels pay great attention to their cd packages, layouts e.t.c. And this has a point for the listeners, I guess, because before the music starts to play they have already certain information about what is going to follow. DIY aesthetics is a part of...

Fun with nuns – what can spur us on
(wax / cd, 2010)
My first encounter with the music of the mighty Fun with nuns was via their myspace page. Some information and a couple of videos were documenting the more or less aleatory identity of the band either in terms of line up or sporadic performances. The big line up though was an element that differentiated them to anything else happening in Greece where bands are almost...

The JazzFakers – JazzFakers
(PAS records / cd, 2011)
Τhis cd was probably selfreleased by the band from New York in 2010 mixed by Martin Bisi and mastered by Bartek Jaworski. As the cd starts the straight forward drums (Steve Orbach) and bass (Isaac Taylor) sounds coming from the speakers sound like they comprise a parallel universe to that of Tamura’s saxophone and Robert L. Pepper’s violin. These...

Yellow Crystal Star – Rainbow Bridge To...
(Oms-b / lp, tape, 2010)
“Yellow Crystal Star” is Mark Billings from United States. His project is not designed to express only his musical concerns, but I would rather say that this is music originally conceived as a vehicle for experience. He believes that his music ” … is not intended to be a personal or emotional expression”. Essentially, this is music that...

This cd was released in 2009 in a limited number of copies by the laboratory of “1ος Όροφος”, based in...
