Adam Bałdych & The Baltic Gang -][- IMAGINARY ROOM –Mp3– [ACT Music + Vision, 2012] –

After a much celebrated appearance by Adam Bałdych at the 2011 Berlin Jazzfest, critic Ulrich Olshausen raved in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper: “He has, without doubt, the greatest technique of any jazz violinist alive today. We can expect everything of him”.

High praise for a musician of just 26 years of age, and at the same time only fitting for a man who has been considered a prodigy in his native Poland for many years already. He discovered the violin at the age of 11, and jazz at 13; the music gave him the freedom of expression he was looking for, and at 16 he started his international career.

Marius Neset -[]- GOLDEN XPLOSION -(MP3)- [Edition Records, 2011]

Marius Neset? This is a name you are going to hear a whole lot more. This astonishingly gifted 25 year old saxophonist/composer is releasing his second album on Edition Records and it will simply blow you away. Golden Xplosion, also the title of Marius’ band, features one of the hottest quartets anywhere. Pianist Django Bates needs no introduction – the names Human Chain, Loose Tubes and Storm Chaser, his latest project, will suffice.

His playing here lends the music an orchestral quality and the textures he adds even on acoustic piano are just gorgeous. Bassist Jasper Hoiby’s own Edition CD Phronesis Live was one of the jazz hits of 2010. Swedish drummer Anton Eger is another astonishing young musician with great time and explosive power yet capable of great subtlety too.
