...Hassell. Who sails away on 'Blues Nile.' A gag I could not resist. I'm all for cheap and easy laughs... Opens on a drone then shadowy trumpet, breathy and bending. Trumpet doubled up, a muezzin-like call across a misty landscape. The influence of his voice teacher Pandit Pran Nath comes through strongly here, it seems a vocalised line of...

SYLVIAN, DAVID - Brilliant Trees (1984) [rated 4/5 by Ghost Rider]

2008-01-22 10:48:21 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
 
...Hassell, and Japanese multi-instrumentalist Ryuichi Sakamoto (a frequent Sylvian collaborator), in order to produce a beautiful, intriguing album, full of diverse soundscapes and world music suggestions. In comparison with Japans sparse, nervous sound, Brilliant Trees is richer and more rounded enhanced by the array of ethnic and traditional...

...Hassell, 23 Skidoo and African Headcharge, and not unfairly. This music takes Hassell's Fourth World gauntlet very seriously indeed, creating a fetid, tropical musical Interzone from the fragments ironically recorded in London. It rocks, as well, rarely letting go of the dark grooves that underpin it A year later Last Night Remixes, Vol. 1...

...Hassell, David Rosenbloom, Terry Riley, Jon Gibson, and Lee Konitz. Much of their music is now available in compilations like this disc , but some of their music never survived past the original, super-limited LP releases. I can't find reliable information about the original LPs, or any track listings, but here I've collected 6 tracks from...

Nils Petter Molvaer - Solid Ether

2007-12-20 20:09:00 by Andreé in Tuchinsky
...Hassell, and Ben Neill, but his original approach to electronica groove creation, including mixing live rhythm sections with programmed beats, keeps it fresh. Molvaer orchestrates some effective grooves on the menacing "Dead Indeed" and the doomsday song of "Ligotage," but his improvisations rarely appear on the same page. His rhythms are hot...

Nils Petter Molvaer - Er

...Hassell. In fact, if Miles were still alive today there's a good chance he'd dig Molvaer immensely -- he expands the repertoire of the trumpet and challenges listeners to "get with it." Very Miles. Nils Petter Molvaer has made some good music over the years. His trumpetplaying is very moody and he can set an atmosphere that not a lot of...
