Review: Original Gravity strides into 2025 with this electrifying debut release from I Ragazzi. The limited 45 rpm has been crafted by the talented Neil Anderson and the title cut 'Terremoto' on the A-side bursts with funky, soulful energy that promises to keep floors moving and grooving all night long. It has big drums, crashing hits and driving Hammond organ stabs that never let up. On the flip, things get a little more laid back with 'Via Appia' which is led by more great organs, this time with swirling horn sounds and an inviting rhythm.

The Ancients (2xLP)
Cat: ZORN 112. Rel: 13 Feb 25
Review: The debut recording from The Ancients, an intergenerational trio featuring Isaiah Collier, William Hooker and William Parker initially formed to play Milford Graves' Mind Body Deal exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. This double LP captures the raw energy and improvisational brilliance of their live performances, showcasing the enduring legacy of free jazz. Collier's tenor saxophone soars and wails, drawing on influences from John Coltrane to Charles Gayle, while grounding his explorations in a deep understanding of structure and form. Hooker's drumming is a force of nature, a whirlwind of polyrhythms and explosive energy that pushes the music to its limits. And Parker, a true legend of the avant-garde, anchors the music with his virtuosic bass playing, creating a foundation for the trio's improvisational flights. The music is both a celebration of the rich history of free jazz and a bold exploration of new sonic territory. The Ancients tap into the spirit of their predecessors, channeling the energy of the Cecil Taylor Unit and the Ornette Coleman Trio, while forging their own unique path, the power of collective improvisation looming large throughout.

Review: The Ethiopian Ibex Band's 1976 album Stereo Instrumental Music is being re-released as a cornerstone of Ethiopian music. This record is credited with shaping the modern sound of Ethiopian music and the band's enduring influence can be felt in the works of legends like Aster Aweke, Girma Beyene and Mulatu Astatke. Created by Giovanni Rico and Selam Woldemariam, Stereo Instrumental Music is part of a significant legacy that challenges the idea of a "golden age" of Ethiopian music and highlights the constant evolution of the sound. The Ibex Band, later known as The Roha Band, has remained central to that and Ethiopia's wider scene.

Head Rock (reissue) (gatefold translucent blue vinyl LP + insert with obi strip)
Cat: COJY 9515. Rel: 04 Nov 24
Review: Head Rock by Jiro Inagaki & His Soul Media offers a nostalgic journey into the Japanese jazz scene of 1970. Reminiscent of the film library albums from Italy, this album blends jazzy instrumentation with psychedelic rock elements, creating a unique sonic tapestry. While not a widely known Japanese album from the era, Head Rock provides pleasant grooves and moments of headphone bobbing enjoyment. The 2018 reissue on Columbia/Takt Jazz comes in a brilliant gatefold cover, making it a worthy addition to any collection. With original copies demanding steep prices, the reissue offers a more affordable option without compromising on quality. Head Rock is a worthwhile exploration of vintage Japanese jazz-rock fusion.

Drum Method (reissue) (gatefold translucent yellow vinyl LP + insert with obi-strip)
Cat: HMJY 218. Rel: 29 Jan 25
Review: Takeshi Inomata's Drum Method reissue is jazz-rock at its fiercest, transforming a drum instructional into a relentless groove machine. Inomata's legendary, boundary-pushing stick work shines, leading Sound Limited through a heady mix of originals and covers like 'Runaway Child' and 'Smack Water Jack.' The album, filled with dizzying solos and Norio Maeda's standout arrangements, is a masterclass in rhythm and energy, showing Inomata's unstoppable drive to reshape the genre. This reissue is pure, high-octane funk and groove at its finest.

Blue City (remastered) (limited 180 gram vinyl LP with obi-strip)
Cat: MHJL 403. Rel: 12 Mar 25
Review: Isao Suzuki's follow-up to his breakthrough album captures the essence of Japanese jazz in the 1970s, a period where the traditional swing style was redefined with a unique, more restrained approach. This album features exceptional interplay between Suzuki and saxophonist Kazumi Watanabe, with an added depth from pianist Kunihiko Sugano and drummer Tetsujiroh Obara. Notably, bassist Nobuyoshi Ino joins on two tracks, including a stirring rendition of 'Body and Soul', bringing a fuller sound to the ensemble and highlighting Suzuki's innovative use of the cello within the small group context. The music, originally released in 1974, avoids the dated, overly rigid patterns of some American jazz of the time, instead opting for more fluid and expressive forms. Reissued now, this album stands as an essential masterpiece in the Japanese jazz canon, showcasing Suzuki's ability to create timeless, intricate and captivating jazz that continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.

Orang Utan (remastered) (limited 180 gram vinyl LP with obi-strip)
Cat: MHJL 358. Rel: 30 Oct 24
Review: The 1975 album Orang-Utan by renowned bassist and cellist Isao Suzuki is a standout in Japanese jazz, now reissued globally by Le Tres Jazz Club, a label dedicated to unearthing rare jazz gems. Originally released on the Three Blind Mice label, this album showcases Suzuki's innovative approach to jazz, blending free jazz and jazz fusion with remarkable fluidity. The album features an exceptional lineup, including saxophonist Kenji Mori, whose versatile playing on alto sax, bass clarinet, and flute evokes the spirit of Eric Dolphy, and the legendary guitarist Kazumi Watanabe, who delivers nuanced, captivating solos throughout. The band also includes bassist Samu Kawakami and drummer Shinji Mori, with a guest appearance by vocalist Mari Nakamoto, who adds a sublime touch on 'Where Are You Going?'ia cover of Shirley Horn's classic. Orang-Utan is bookended by two energetic, extended tracks, with the funk-infused opener 'Blue Road' setting the tone. The title track, a complex fusion piece, stands as the album's centerpiece. In between, more laid-back compositions highlight Watanabe's masterful guitar work. This reissue brings Suzuki's fourth album, a once highly sought-after collector's item, to a broader audience, reaffirming its status as a vital piece of jazz history.

Orang Utan (remastered) (SACD with obi-strip)
Cat: MHCL 10168. Rel: 06 Nov 24
Review: Those with expert knowledge of Japanese jazz have long regarded Orang Utan, a 1975 set spearheaded by renowned bassist and cellist Isao Suzuki, as a hard-to-find classic. It's thought of as one of Suzuki's most successful explorations of his innovative sound, which fluidly fused elements of jazz fusion and free-jazz. Suzuki was joined on the record by a who's who of Japanese jazz, including saxophonist Kenji Mori, guitarist Kazumi Watanabe, bassist Samu Kawalami and drummer Sjinji Mori. As this remastered reissue proves, it remains a sparkling and mood-enhancing affair, with highlights including the loose-limbed fusion excellence of 'Blue Road' and 'Where Are You Going', a sublime cover of the Shriley Horn song of the same name featuring guest vocals by Mari Nakamoto.

Review: Eiko Ishibashi, best known for her acclaimed soundtrack work, returns to original composition with this album named in honour of the feminist-facing, heroine from ancient Greek tragedelian Sophocles' Oedipus Trilogy. It's a world of shimmering jazz harmonies, pulsating electronica and ghostly musique concrete, 'October' opening with a haunting, alluring melody and the disjointed rhythms of 'Coma' creating a sense of disorientation. 'Antigone', the centerpiece, builds to a powerful and unsettling climax, but there's more than chilling soundscapes as Ishibashi injects moments of surprising warmth and beauty, like the delicate interplay between acoustic and electronic elements in 'Nothing As'. Comparisons with her soundtrack work will be made, but - not unlike Antigone herself - this stands alone as a work of bravery and strength.

Review: In 1997, You Ishihara - a key figure in the of history of Japanese underground music, mainly thanks to his output as the leader of the band White Heaven - released this beauty. It's his debut solo album and in terms of the attention it received at the time, you might describe it as nothing more than a damp squib. Subsequently, it's only been availble on CD. However, for the first time on vinyl and to coincide with growing recognition that this is an album that's been unfairly lost in the cultural zeitgeist, it's now getting its flowers. Ishihara has a voice that lets those 60s melodies unfurl with the majesty of a flower opening its petals after a long winter. But he can also ramp it up to 13th Floor Elevator-esque psychedelic scuzz brilliance: 'Crevice' is all flailing hair, drum fills and beer spills. A lot of fun to balance out his Lou Reed-esque downtempo stuff.

Electrum (reissue) (gatefold orange vinyl LP with obi-strip)
Cat: NJS 800. Rel: 28 Oct 24
Review: In 1970, Akira Ishikawa, a key figure in the jazz rock movement, ventured into bold new territory with his album Electrum. This ambitious project shows his innovative spirit, pushing jazz boundaries with its intense, precise grooves and the musicians' quest for new heights. The album features standout tracks like the tempestuous 'Electrum,' the complexly layered 'Revulsion,' and the tranquil 'Speak Under My Breath,' which captures the serene clarity of dawn. The presence of distinguished pianists and arrangers Masahiko Sato and Hiromasa Suzuki adds further depth and brilliance to this already vibrant work. Electrum is celebrated as a major achievement in Ishikawa's career and is a notable highlight within the Victor "Japanese Jazz" series. Its revival brings renewed attention to Ishikawa's groundbreaking exploration of jazz fusion.

Review: Ysla, the latest album by Swiss-Polish-Japanese singer, composer and improviser Yumi Ito, is a breathtaking journey into the depths of personal storytelling and expansive, genre-blending soundscapes. Moving between art-pop, jazz and neoclassical, the album dives into themes of solitude, renewal and the end of worlds, beautifully woven with nature, psychology and societal reflections. For the first time, Ito recorded all piano parts herself, layering her vocals with remarkable grace over intricate compositions. In these seven original pieces, Ito has refined her vocal improvisation into a universal language that resonates effortlessly, transcending linguistic borders. Her voice glides seamlessly through varying rhythms and keys. Supporting her are Kuba Dworak on double bass and Iago Fernandez on drums, creating a fluid, versatile rhythm section that explores vast musical terrains. With contributions from guests like Chris Hyson on synths and Szymon Mika on guitar, Ysla feels both intimate and grand. Recorded with Daniel Dettwiler at Studio Idee und Klang on the legendary mixing console used by Queen and Supertramp, the album is a resonant island of artistryiundaunted, timeless and surrounded by vast oceans of sound. Ysla is Ito's boldest, most profound work yet.

Review: The second album from Vijay Iyer and Wadada Leo Smith on ECM is a meditation on resilience, sorrow and the human condition. Across four expansive tracks on Defiant Life, Iyer's piano and Fender Rhodes intertwine with Smith's haunting trumpet to create a soundscape that's both urgent and serene. From the solemn depth of 'Sumud' to the shimmering melancholy of 'Floating River Requiem' and the radiant close of 'Procession: Defiant Life' notions of suffering, resistance and hope are explored. The record was recorded in Lugano and produced by Manfred Eicher. It's a deeply reflective work of emotional and spiritual resonance.

Review: This release feels like a collision of worlds, where abstract textures and rhythmic intricacies are forced into a dialogue with more accessible forms of electronic music. The opening track sets a tone of strange, mysterious propulsion, yet never fully gives in to any familiar conventions. Instead, it hints at a narrative unfoldingia journey, almost, where sound and intention coalesce but never fully resolve. It's a slow burn that rewards those who stick around, offering complex layers that reveal themselves gradually. Far from merely experimental, it finds a rare balance between artifice and soul, making each sonic twist feel purposeful and immersive.
