Hyper.object: inter.independence

Read "inter.independence" reviewed by Mark Corroto


The premise defined for this recording session was clear; each member of the quintet was “to develop their ideas individually and to not immediately react or engage in direct dialog with the other musicians from the group."

Read "Vento" reviewed by Mark Corroto


It would be interesting to learn the order in which the six tracks on this recording were laid down. Not so much that it would make for a better listening experience, because this is a thrilling debut, but it would give us clues into the organization and presentation of music by this new label, Phonogram Unit. Saxophonist José Lencastre's trio includes Hernâni Faustino, a first-call bassist for musicians such as Luís Lopes, Rodrigo Amado and a member of ...
