“"The Flow Trio do that. Flow. They flow in a free manner. They flow because each player sets up the other players with what he does, allowing them to invent fertile extended collective improvisations." – All About Jazz”
The Rempis Percussion Quartet
Sud Des Alpes
Aerophonic Records
“Only a band with a history this long – that of a family – can get into some wrangling like this live onstage, and still produce something that’s both coherent and compelling. This is a straight up circus feat – a train engineer who reconstructs the locomotive as the train rockets down the line.

Satoko Fujii, Wadada Leo Smith, Natsuki Tamura & Ikue Mori
Aspiration
Libra Records
“"The group chemistry is magical on pianist-composer Satoko Fujii's Aspiration, featuring an all-star quartet with trumpeters Wadada Leo Smith and Natsuki Tamura, and laptop player Ikue Mori. The nearly telepathic link among them takes the music into places where it grows ever deeper and more intuitive." - Brathwaite & Katz”
Ivo Perelman / Matthew Shipp / Joe Morris
Shamanism
Mahakala Music
“"What is noticeable is that every gap - even the tiniest half bar is immediately filled, as if it was a sin to leave any space un-played. At times the strings of piano and guitar meld and form a base upon which Perelman's sax builds and ricochets from but mostly this is three musicians improvising as they should, composing on the spot and producing something quite special." - Sammy Stein

“"This LP is a little bit of a strange beast because the two sides are split between two bands. On the first side, you ca nhear "Throw Down Your Hammer And Sing", the trio consisting of Nate Wooley, Fred Lonberg-Holm and Jason Roebke, while the second side is performed by Sheldon Siegel, a trio with Erik Heestermans on percussion, Gerard Herman on sax and Gino Coomans on cello, and all on several other instruments." - Stef, Free Jazz Blog”
