“Over the years our sound has evolved from loop-based improvisations and dreamy, layered soundscapes to more tightly constructed and focused compositions. And now we’re trying to find a balance between the two approaches... the goal being...music that the listener can enjoy on a casual level...but it also reveals... layers of complexity through more focused, active listening."
 
Chicago’s A Light Sleeper initially emerged in the summer of 2005 as a duo consisting of Matthew Jung (drums, keyboard) and Dheeru Pennepalli (guitar, vocals). Having come up in the DIY post-punk/hardcore/noise scene, they were both eager to do something drastically different — a quieter band, exploring minimalism and improvisation built around Pennepalli’s experiments live-looping his atypically tuned guitar and voice.
 
The duo prepared a 20-minute set, and made their decidedly inauspicious debut at The Mutiny, a now defunct dive bar known for showcasing hard rock and metal bands (as well as for being home to the largest urinal in Chicago). Many of those in attendance didn’t realize the band was actually performing and assumed Pennepalli was still sound checking or troubleshooting a faulty amp. Despite such early hiccups, the band soon began gigging regularly in the city, with notable early performances opening for Jeff Parker’s Cushicle Trio, Azita, and Geoff Farina.
 
In 2007, Pennepalli met Maria Elena Hernandez (alto/tenor sax, voice) and invited her to sit in on a rehearsal. A recent transplant from Indiana, Hernandez had studied music education and the classical saxophone repertoire at Indiana University South Bend. Having little formal training themselves, Jung and Pennepalli were quite impressed with her smooth and polished sound. Hernandez agreed to join the band, and as she composed sax parts for the duo’s existing songs, she began influencing the writing process overall — giving more structure and form to the compositions while still leaving plenty of space for improvisation. The new trio released their first EP Amicability on Another New Calligraphy, an independent art/music/literature imprint, in 2009.
 
From 2010 to 2011, multi-instrumentalist Chandler Evans (bass, guitar, percussion) joined the trio during his brief time living in Chicago. Though his tenure was short, Evans had become an integral part of the band, contributing to their followup EP Brevity (recorded in early 2011 but not released until the following year), as well as the band’s original score for Life as Lincoln, a feature-length documentary about an annual convention for Abraham Lincoln impersonators.
 
Following Evans’ departure, the band recruited David Keller (cello) after Pennepalli saw him performing with a jazz-pop group. A busy working musician juggling several projects, it took some convincing for him to finally attend a rehearsal. But within minutes, Keller was hooked. He immediately invited close friend and frequent collaborator Traci Huff (viola), an idiosyncratic player known in Chicago’s classical and new music communities for her unique phrasing and use of extended techniques.
 
With Keller and Huff on board, 2011 would prove to be a momentous year for the band. They began functioning more like a true composers collective, with Keller and Huff favoring a more structured approach to songwriting. For the first time, the band was charting out sections on a whiteboard and notating music. This more rigorous process quickly yielded the band’s first EP as a quintet, Concision, their final release for Another New Calligraphy.

listen to the track "Chrysanthemums" on Soundcloud:

On another note, 2011 also marked the beginning of Hernandez and Pennepalli’s romantic involvement — much to their bandmates’ relief, who by then had endured months of sitcom-ish ‘will they/won’t they’ melodrama from the two. “Jung sat us down and made us both promise we wouldn’t let it impact the band, and that if things went bad we’d handle it like adults,” recalls Hernandez. Fortunately, things didn’t go bad, and the couple were married in 2018.

Finally hitting their stride as an ensemble, the band began writing their most ambitious album to date, Distinction (a Ballet in Six Parts). “That was our attempt at creating something in the tradition of the classic prog-rock concept album,” Pennepalli recalls. “Dheeru and I had become obsessed with this Pina Bausch documentary, which inspired a lot of discussion between us about the creative process and how an artist is forced to confront their ego and insecurities. So, the lyrics and music were written to convey cyclical and interweaving emotions experienced during a creative process,” adds Hernandez. 

Shortly after recording the album, the band embarked on a short tour in the fall of 2016 with dates in New York, Washington D.C. and Boston. Shortly after returning, Keller informed the band he’d be stepping down. Soon to become a father, Keller made the difficult decision to scale back his creative pursuits to focus on teaching. The band would eventually self-release Distinction in 2019.

Keller’s departure left the remaining four members in a bit of a predicament. Attempts to rearrange the songs on Distinction for quartet were unsatisfactory, as were attempts to find a suitable fifth member. They soon decided to start fresh, and took the next couple of years off from performing to focus on writing an entirely new set of songs as a quartet. In November 2018 they debuted the new material to an enthralled audience at an art gallery in Chicago. The new songs were leaner, tighter, and had a more buoyant energy — almost as if it were an entirely new band.

Looking back, Pennepalli marvels at the band’s growth from that scrappy little duo opening a metal show at a dive bar. “Over the years our sound has evolved from loop-based improvisations and dreamy, layered soundscapes to more tightly constructed and focused compositions. And now we’re trying to find a balance between the two approaches,” Pennepalli says of the band’s music. He continues, “what we’re trying to do is write just a bit beyond our technical capabilities — the goal being to challenge ourselves with difficult music, but presenting it in a way that’s accessible and flexible. By ‘flexible’, I mean music that the listener can enjoy on a casual level — like background music at a social gathering, or passively listening on headphones while working — but it also reveals subtleties and layers of complexity through more focused, active listening. So in other words, music that’s both easy and difficult at the same time.”

MILLER TWINS


EARLY COMPOSITIONS 1973-1976

Bio information: MILLER TWINS
Title: : EARLY COMPOSITIONS (Cuneiform Rune 3368)
Format: DIGITAL
Label: CUNEIFORM RECORDS
Release date: JULY 28, 2023
FILE UNDER: CHAMBER ROCK / AVANT PROGRESSIVE /  POST CLASSICAL
 
New recordings of previously unrecorded and unheard early compositions by
Michigan twins Ben and Laurence Miller,  
the multi-instrumentalists and composers of
Fourth World Quartet and Destroy All Monsters.


The Miller Twins recall their early musical travels:

British Invasion and Psychedelic Rock unwound itself in a tizzy as The Beatles began to break up. Hendrix and others died and Syd Barrett evaporated quickly. Local inspirations MC-5, SRC, and other promising bands were also coming to an end. Rock as ‘new music’ became progressive at best, leaving little left but Classic Rock to soon melt into the coming dread of Disco. The tail end of Don Van Vliet was still percolating, but most of our attention now turned towards Bitches Brew, Out to Lunch, Escalator Over the Hill, Erik Satie, Charles Ives, Waiting For Godot, Henry Cow, Sun Ra, Ayler, Ornette, and various expressions of aleatory music.

MARSH CRABBITTS and his CLAPFORD PLATUNE was a horn-based band Laurence Miller formed in late summer 1972 with a focus on clarinets and saxophones. Its cock-eyed marching band sensibilities took hold rapidly. Homemade compositions were drawn up with hallucinogenic free-form notation applied. The Miller twins - Laurence and Ben - were 18 at the time with no training as to how one should go about composing. Although some band members were schooled in music, none were particularly proficient on their instruments. They were known to exclude ‘learned’ musicians, choosing to play with best friends instead. They may not have had the ‘chops’ but were clearly willing to openly explore.

Good friend David Swain had formed his own free form jazz collective ‘The Cruzonics’ earlier that year which amazingly managed to make the 2nd round at Saline Battle of the Bands. Though David’s entourage and The Clapfold did intermingle from time to time, The Cruzonics as a separate entity was loose and always had a rhythm section, where as The Clapfold Platune focused solely on original compositions written out on staff paper with pockets of ‘illustrated’ free-form areas.

The Clapfold Platune managed a few gigs at Earthworks Pioneer II Free School and a couple random outdoor performances on Ann Arbor’s Diag. They were also part of a pack that lead Ann Arbor’s 1st Ozone Parade with David Swain with their photograph making the front page on The Michigan Daily. Best of all was a triple bill show at Ann Arbor’s The People’s Ballroom (along with The Cruzonics) and finally Ann Arbor Community Television’s first ever video production ever, converging with The Cruzonics renamed for the occasion as The Psychic Research Jazz Ensemble - ESP through Drugs – in August of 1973.

Laurence & Ben then moved to Boston (with David Swain) where the two attended The School of Contemporary Music in the fall of 1973. They continued composing, rehearsing with open-eared musical friends they met, soon discovering the school experience was not what they had hoped it would be. Contemporary? Nope.

~ ~ ~

THE CRUZONIC MUSIC ENSEMBLE slowly formed and in February 1974 performed at Berklee College of Music. Disbanding shortly thereafter, Laurence and Ben formed THE NOVA MOB with Donnie Davis and Johnny Ellis – yet another group named after one of William S. Burroughs’ novels.
 
As Donnie Davis recalls:
 "I was a student at the Berklee College of Music 1972-74. While learning a lot there I found myself gravitating towards some extracurricular, off-campus musical activities which led me to find the Miller brothers. (perhaps at the encouragement of David Swain?) This homegrown music hit the sweet spot for me. I loved Laurence’s and Ben’s unique writing / playing style within their naturally derived musical system. We spent many hours working on these wonderful melodies and outlines, hence “The NOVA MOB”. Also, we listened to many recordings of past and forward sounding jazz styles along with modern classical/electronic music. This inspired me to later move to Woodstock NY to study at the Creative Music Studio and then NYC to keep discovering new sounds and eventually be a part of the Microscopic Septet playing alto sax. Happy to be included here on a couple tunes that we covered back then and now NOW. Note: Michael Hashim has been with the Microscopic Septet for many years, and was in fact involved jamming with us some back then!”
– Donnie Davis – 2023
 
THE NOVA MOB’s drummer – the late Johnny Ellis – later performed, recorded, and arranged for THE WIDESPREAD DEPRESSION ORCHESTRA. He also formed his own band, the NYC-based sextet PLANET JAZZ, which released In Orbit. Tower Records praised Ellis' writing in a CD review, noting that "Ellis' tunes, while reflective of his dark humor, combine true originality with plenty of swing and provide a rich harmonic underpinning for the band's tremendous soloists to stretch out...”
 
 
THE NOVA MOB did manage one bar gig. The group walked down to the bar wearing funny clothes all set to perform. The club owner took one look at us and shook his head. We were not allowed to play. Such were the times.
 

We did manage to record a fair amount of casual sessions over the summer, which may find the light of day, someday. Note: Some of the compositions in this Cuneiform collection were composed at that time.


listen to the track "Looking Down at the Ground at This and That" on Soundcloud:

Moving back to Michigan in fall 1974, we attended Thomas Jefferson College; a part of the Grand Valley State Colleges in the Grand Rapids area. There we formed the short-lived FOURTH WORLD QUARTET with brother Roger Miller in 1975. Compositions began to take on a more sophisticated tone. Roger soon left and was replaced by composition teacher Denman Maroney.
 
As Denman Maroney recalls:
“Fresh from getting an MFA at Cal. Inst. of the Arts, I spent the academic year 1974-75 teaching at Thomas Jefferson College in Allendale MI. Among my students were Roger, Ben, and Laurence Miller. We made a lot of music together, especially after Roger quit the Fourth World Quartet, and I took his place. We even went to New York together for a week to see the New York Philharmonic under Pierre Boulez celebrate Charles Ives' hundredth birthday. Cushion concerts, they were called, because the first twenty or so rows of seats had been replaced with cushions in an effort to attract young people to classical music concerts. I haven't seen Laurence since then, but have worked with Ben several times in New York, most notably on our duo album Exophilia – available on both our Bandcamp sites.”
– Denman Maroney – 2023
 
CD collections from both incarnations of THE FOURTH WORLD QUARTET were released nearly five decades later on Cuneiform Records in 2021/22 respectively, meeting rave reviews.

~ ~ ~
 
Laurence continued school on his own in the fall of 1975 with hopes of forming yet another creative music band but nothing substantial came of it. By early 1976 Laurence threw in the towel and moved back home to Ann Arbor. There he hooked up with his two brothers again, this time on a creative journey with musical friends forming the dada-noise-rock of EMPOOL. This mad concoction dissolved spring 1977 into Cary & Niagara’s DESTROY ALL MONSTERS and the rest is history.
 
 
Always pushing the envelope, the music of our youth veered far from the mainstream. The last echoing cries of the '60's Revolution had long since died, and what little counter culture was left had now became nothing short of a disturbing fashion. The Bee Gees soon took center stage, now as the Kings of Disco, and even Hillbillies were smoking pot and dropping acid.
 
 
We Miller brothers wrote, recorded, and performed original music, regardless of what the future may hold. No one put a gun to our head nor were these class projects or commissioned works. The priority was to document and catalog on analogue tape, with fingers always hovering just above the record button begging to be pushed. “Is it on....?" was our catch phrase of the 70's.
 
 
Many of these compositions were written out and can still be performed today. Others are comprised simply of ‘heads’, short bits of angular melody with areas of improvisation illustrated only with hallucinogenic pictographs to help the player along in their interpretation.
 
This year Laurence and Ben have both formed new groups. THE 11th HOUR QUARTET and SENSORIUM SAXOPHONE ORCHESTRA with Ben at the helm for both, and Laurence’s TINN PARROW and his CLAPFOLD PLATUNE sporting many of his compositions on this collection.

listen to “Pugni Chiusi" from In Camporella on Soundcloud:


Picchio dal Pozzo's Paolo Griguolo relays the origins of this release, In Camporella:

"A few months before the COVID-19 2020 lockdown I received a CD labelled ‘Valdapozzo 05/30/2004’, from an unknown sender. Thinking it over, it came to me..., yes! On that day we had performed a unique gig at Valdapozzo, the location where we had recorded the [studio] CD ‘Pic_nic@Valdapozzo’ just two years before.

My first impression had been that of a great performance, though, actually, it sounded like a total mess.

The rules of engagement for this gig were total improvisation based on the audio samples of Demetrio Stratos’ voice and some sequences of the album.

For musicians, and not only for them, two years of lockdown meant the smoke of hundreds of cigarettes blown inside empty pockets.

So, instead of playing Tetris, I resolved to edit the sound of the stereo tracks by fragmenting them into frequency bands, and remixing the whole lot to a new sound.

This is the result, perhaps not a masterpiece, but passionately reworked."

RASCAL REPORTERS

THE STRAINGE CASE OF STEVE


Bio information: RASCAL REPORTERS
Title: : THE STRAINGE CASE OF STEVE (Cuneiform Rune 3367)
Format: DIGITAL
Label: CUNEIFORM RECORDS
Release date: JULY 28, 2023
FILE UNDER: AVANT PROGRESSIVE /  POST ROCK
 
The StraInge Case of Steve is the eighth recording - and first Cuneiform Records release - from the avant-garde progressive rock group Rascal Reporters. The album's title is a play on the names of the two musicians now behind the Rascal Reporters: Steve Kretzmer and James Strain 

listen to the track “I Cry Crimes” on Soundcloud:

The Strainge Case of Steve is the latest offering from the avant-garde progressive rock duo Rascal Reporters, currently comprised of Steve Kretzmer and James Strain. The album features 16 tracks of eclectic, inventive and adventurous music that showcases the Reporters’ compositional dexterity and idiosyncratic creativity.

The album heralds a new chapter of the Rascal Reporters' long and prolific career, which spans over four decades and (now) eight studio albums. The band was founded in 1974 by high-school friends Steve Gore and Steve Kretzmer in Oak Park, Michigan. Inspired by progressive rock giants like Frank Zappa, Gentle Giant, Henry Cow and King Crimson - along with the then-burgeoning Rock-In-Opposition & Canterbury scenes in prog - they recorded hundreds of songs in their basement studio throughout the 70s and 80s using an array of instruments, tape recorders and synthesizers.

The Rascal Reporters developed a unique style that combined complex compositions, quirky melodies, odd time signatures, humorous lyrics and experimental sounds. They gained a cult following among deep-diving crate-digging progressive rock fans around the world for their originality and eccentricity.

The Strainge Case of Steve is their eighth studio album and heralds the full return of group founder Steve Kretzmer who had taken a step back from composition after 1995’s Purple Entrapment. It is also their first to feature James Strain as a full-time member. Strain joined the band in 2019 and completed the group’s first new release in some years: Redux Vol. 1, followed by Vol. 2 in 2021, a semi-archival series which featured up-cycled versions of lost compositions with new arrangements and overdubs from Strain. The album was well-received by critics and fans alike for its fresh spin on the classic Reporters DNA. Strain shares writing, performing and production duties with Kretzmer on this new album.

The album was recorded between 2017 and 2023 at Kretzmer & Strain's home studios in Michigan, USA & Carlow, Ireland respectively. It features guest appearances from returning favourites and members of classic avant prog groups such as long time collaborator Dave Newhouse (The Muffins, Manna/Mirage) and Guy Segers (Univers Zero), along with members of some of today’s most exciting new groups such as Jessica Martin Maresco (Pili Coit, Le Grand Sbam) and Dario D'Allessando (Homunculus Res).

Title: : DAMAGED GOODS (Cuneiform Rune 518)
Format: CD / DIGITAL
Release Date: June 30, 2023
Label: CUNEIFORM RECORDS
FILE UNDER: JAZZ


Listening to Location Location Location’s debut, “Damaged Goods”,
it would be so easy to get the wrong impression of where Anthony Pirog, Michael Formanek and Mike Pride's session was born ...





listen/share on Soundcloud: "Verdigris" from
LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION'S DAMAGED GOODS


Listen to Location, Location, Location’s debut, Damaged Goods, and it’s easy to visualize the three musicians sweating it out in the recording studio, locking in on a groove and just jamming. With, it should be noted, occasional breaks to contemplate the basics, then add subtle overdubs: some bit-crunched guitar here, a marimba there, perhaps a harmonized line or a spacey reverb effect. But essentially live, essentially just three guys in a room, giving their all.
 
But that’s not how it went down at all.
 
Recorded during the darkest days of Covid-19, Damaged Goods is actually the ultimate pandemic project. Not only were guitarist Anthony Pirog, bassist Michael Formanek, and drummer Mike Pride safely socially distant during the recording project, two of them have not yet met in the flesh.
 
Nonetheless, Location, Location, Location is a band.
 
“I think that’s probably just our personalities, the way that we work, and the way that we wanted to hear it,” explains the Virginia-raised Pirog, who was living in Monterey, California during the sessions. With Pride and Formanek on the East Coast, and getting together not in the cards, the three made Damaged Goods by sending sound files and audio notes back and forth while trusting the others to do their best.
 
“The whole thing was pretty new,” Pirog continues. “I was really excited because I’m a fan of both of their work, both composing and playing. So that was a big thing to deal with in terms of ‘What are you getting from the piece to react to? Are you initiating the piece? How do you supply that and have it be something that people can add sound to?’ 
 
“But when I sat down to record, it wasn’t like I composed my parts. I’d press ‘play’, and I’d react to things as I heard them. So it wasn’t that hard, actually, as long as I didn’t get into pop-overdubbing mode and hyper-fixate on things under the microscope.”
 
It’s obvious that both Formanek and Pride were on the same page. “Improvising like this definitely presents a set of potential challenges,” says the bassist. “But I’ve got to say that in this project I never felt that anything was stifled at all, or disconnected. When I would hear something from Mike or Anthony it just immediately gave me thoughts about what to do. In most cases I’d just dive in there pretty fast. The initial ideas were mostly pretty quick, pretty immediate. So in a weird way it didn’t feel like we weren’t improvising in real time, if that makes any sense. Which was a little surprising to me!”
 
“Everybody listened really deeply, and nobody tried to put a certain personality on it,” Pride says. “We were just experimenting, and then at the end we liked what we had, and we had a record.”
 
A very fine record, it should be mentioned.

CHEER–ACCIDENT

"...one of the most impressive concerts I saw was the Dragon Drop/Cheer Accident/Free Salamander Exhibit show in Indianapolis. ...Cheer Accident blew me away... The music was innovative and powerful and brave and everything I’d hoped it would be."Proglodytes

"Cheer-Accident are the quintessential Chicago post-rock band... They've been exploring head-scratching, creatively fucked-up time signatures and sideways guitar shenanigans for 20 years now, leaving a pronounced influence on the Windy City's art-rock scene. Their playful musical approach is a ripe aesthetic of absurdist humor."
– Pitchfork

"Tons of weird rock records have streamed out of Chicago over the past two decades, but none have blended pop smarts and avant-garde impulses as skillfully as this marvelous brainteaser..."
– Time Out New York

THE FOURTH WORLD QUARTET

"The resulting...sessions, collected here for the first time, reveal how the amalgam of volatile styles the brothers ingested during their varous sonic encounters fused together and caught fire...Although The Fourth World Quartet was a short-lived project, this remarkable discovery reveals a group who were knocking over some serious creative barriers."
– Edwin Pouncey / Jazzwise

GHOST RHYTHMS

"The music here walks a wide loop around Soft Machine and Magma, Univers Zero and Henry Cow, Miles Davis and Miriodor, Van Der Graaf Generator and Art Zoyd. It's impeccably assembled and played, while freely indulging the more insane aspects of progressive rock, avant-garde chamber music, and electric jazz....Despite the musical sophistication and adventure on Live at Yoshiwara, this music is extremely accessible to a wide swathe of listeners. Its release signals the magnificent arrival of Ghost Rhythms on American shores. Get it now." – AllMusic

HENRY KAISER

Grammy winner Henry Kaiser is widely recognized as one of the most creative and innovative guitarists, improvisers, and producers in the fields of rock, jazz, world, and contemporary experimental musics.
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

THE HENRY KAISER MONTHLY SOLO SERIES, presented exclusively on the CUNEIFORM RECORDS YouTube Channel

 When Covid pandemic lockdowns began in 2020, Henry Kaiser began curating & presenting a weekly series of pre-recorded music videos exclusively on Cuneiform's YouTube Channel for music lovers isolating at home. These "live" concerts are taped beforehand and not streamed - Henry discusses the process in a Guitar Moderne interview, "The New "Live"".  Many videos in the series depict duets and larger bands, despite the program being called the "Henry Kaiser Weekly Solo Series".  While many depict new or recent performances, other videos in this series are vintage footage of performances not available elsewhere (The Valentines' 1994 concert in the Fukuoka Dome).

The series converted to a monthly format after lockdowns began to lift in April 2021, and two years later, converted to a quarterly release schedule.  All 52 videos from the Henry Kaiser's Weekly Series, the entire two year Monthly Series and all current quarterly videos are archived & available on Cuneiform's YouTube Channel.  In June 2023, the video series will convert to a quarterly format.

We invite you to visit and follow Cuneiform Record's YouTube Channel to see the videos that Henry regularly presents. The March 1, 2023 video is HENRY KAISER SHOW #24 - T
he final monthly before the HK series went quarterly. It covers music by Alan Holdsworth, Randy Newman, Robert Hunter, Obray Ramsey. Plus Improvs. Guests: Anthony Pirog, Andy West, Ed Pettersen, Ramon Goose, Bob Bralove, Jody Stecher, & Bill Walker.


Most recently, in addition to his video series, Kaiser occasionally presents special videos:  some focusing on current events and guitar legends, and some providing free guitar lessons, focusing on tunes associated with legendary guitarists. His September 2022 guitar lesson video, focusing on the whole tone scale and Sonny Sharrock, is titled The Whole Tone Scale! Sonny Sharrock’s DICK DOGS lesson with Henry Kaiser.

Besides his work as a musician, Kaiser is also a scientific diver and underwater videographer in the U.S. Antarctic program. Several of his Solo Series videos on the Cuneiform channel feature Henry's stunning underwater videography in addition to his guitar playing, as in this stunning video from May 2020:  HENRY KAISER : Cuneiform Weekly Solo #2 : Under The Ice Again .

Because all videos are archived on the Cuneiform Records' YouTube Channel, you can watch anything in the series at any time.

ROGER CLARK MILLER

Roger Clark Miller is a guitarist, pianist, bassist, composer, singer, percussionist and occasional cornet player. His career officially began in 1979 when he co-founded the influential post-punk band Mission of Burma on guitar and vocals. He formed Birdsongs of the Mesozoic on piano in 1981, and from 1983-1989 he began his Maximum Electric Piano work. Miller joined the Alloy Orchestra in 1998 - "the best [orchestra] in the world at accompanying silent film" says Roger Ebert – which continues today as The Anvil Orchestra. He recently released new solo looping-based music on Cuneiform - Dream Interpretations for Solo Electric Guitar Ensemble..

Boston Globe: "Less a recital than a musical minefield... Miller is a man in constant motion, a one-man symphony."

THE ED PALERMO BIG BAND

"Twenty-first century big-band music doesn’t get more exciting
and impressive than this."
– Jazz Times

An astounding 18 piece jazz ensemble of five woodwind players, four trumpeters, three trombonists, two keyboardists, guitar, violin, bass and drums, led by arranger, composer & saxophonist Ed Palermo, one of America's most singular arrangers who draws on jazz, pop and rock tunes for his top-notch band. There are a number of ensembles performing the music of Frank Zappa, one of the greatest American composers of the 20th century, but no one does it with the ease, skill and originality that Ed and his band do!

RAY RUSSELL

“Russell isn’t merely a fine jazz player, but a truly original music thinker and an improvisational force to be reckoned with.” 
– AllMusic Guide

SCHNELLERTOLLERMEIER

"The Best Music of 2015: A Banner Year for the Bold: …here are a dozen albums released in 2015 that I savored repeatedly for their musicality, clarity of statement and courage. …“X” by Schnellertollermeier marries brutality to avant-garde rock and jazz. A classic power trio from Switzerland, the band plays with punk fury and dazzling technical dexterity to create booming, bone-rattling music that stalks, confronts and astonishes.”
The Wall Street Journal

Schnellertollermeier's clear-cut approach burns itself into one's memory; audiences who have seen the trio (bassist Andi Schnellmann/ guitarist ManuelTroller / 
percussionist David Meier) live describe their music as “stunning”, “minimalist”, “brutal”, “decisive”, “monumental”, “angry”, “controlled”, “captivating” or “radical”.  Simply fantastic.
