The Source: The Source

Read "The Source" reviewed by Budd Kopman


The music that makes up this most delightful and peculiar album is both paradoxical and enigmatic.

After experiencing the album, you might ask yourself what just happened. What is it about this music that kept my total attention and yet slipped right through my fingers? The ...

The Source: The Source

Read "The Source" reviewed by John Kelman

Or does it? The Source, the group's followup to The Source and ...

The Source: The Source

Read "The Source" reviewed by Nic Jones


There were days when albums customarily started with the proverbial flagwaver or something evocative of barns being stormed, but The Source is a radically different proposition. Trombonist Oyvind Braekke's “Caballero" is built around a simple, plodding figure played on bowed bass in tandem with faintly martial drumming. Within the scope of its soundscape, the flags only flap disconsolately, and it's probably best not to think about what might be lurking in the barn.

In the course of its existence, this ...

Drummer Kendrick Scott Releases Debut CD "The Source" on April 10

Source: DL Media

Kendrick “KADS" Scott is not your average drummer. Yes, he went to Berklee. Yes, he endorses many of the same drums and accessories as the next guy. And of course his influences include Tony Williams, Elvin Jones, Jack DeJohnette, Roy Haynes, and Philly Joe Jones. But Scott distinguishes himself from his peers with unrestrained energy, acute sensitivity to his fellow players and a sense of rhythmic personality that is genuinely lacking among so many drummers, young and old. Scott releases ...
