View DJ Peter's profile |
Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

I did see the Webber/Morris Big Band last year, they were terriffic (atr Roulette). The arranging of that band is similar to Shimmer Wince, layering, arpeggiating, shifting textures.
