Part two of this trio collaboration of jazz legend Roscoe Mitchell (on reeds),
modern superstar Craig Taborn (on piano), and newcomer Kikanju Baku (on drums &
percussion). As I stated on the Part 1 release… “It’s a concoction that
threatens to cause tangled wires amongst the senses and create eerily
unfamiliar stimuli, as if sitting alone in a large room, ear pressed to a
late-night radio broadcast of alien transmissions. The trio paint an
avant-garde tapestry overwhelming to take in all at once, challenging from one
moment to the next. And ridiculously thrilling. So over-the-top expressive as
to be accessible to the masses, impenetrable to all. As a creative endeavor,
outstanding. As a musical listening piece, I suggest everyone give it a try.”
Part 2? Sames, though I’m leaning toward the opinion that Part 2 is a little
less maniacal. That, however, could be a case of acclimation to the insanity.
