"uncut & lo-fi" by Reform (Jazz Artist from Sweden)

"uncut & lo-fi" is the 5th and latest release from the Swedish group of 9 musicians known as Reform. They have been described as "Swedish psychedelic jazz-rock for the open minded." But what this album really sounds like is excited instrumental psychedelic garage-rock that takes cues from jazz in its improvisation and sense of order. The opener, "Lion Bar," is a wild track with boisterous and echo-laced drums, plus a plethora of instruments and sounds that makes for an energetic clamor skillfully placed somewhere between music and noise. In "Uncle Urri 2" they slow things down with a more reserved blues beat overlaid with soulful, yet highly spacey, harmonica and guitar playing. For "Spooky" they give us a song that sounds like a blend of jazz and jam-band styled rock, recorded loudly in their unique "lo-fi" manner. If you are a fan of experimental instrumental music, or intrigued by garage-rock that dares to employ the methods of jazz jams, then Reform's CD, "uncut & lo-fi," is an album you would certainly be interested in hearing.

"Reformed" by Reform (Jazz/Rock Artist from Sweden)

Equal parts jazz and instrumental psychedelic / progressive rock, Reform's debut CD, "Reformed," charts a middle ground that ably fuses classic styles and influences - with an unusual twist. With a stellar 6-piece ensemble behind him, harmonica player Àlvaro Fernandez Gavíria's full, lower-octave playing serves as a primary lead instrument for much of the album. With studied restraint, Gaviria's tone – which recalls that of accomplished blues harp-stylist, Corky Siegel, approaches his instrument like a fusion-oriented Miles Davis, drawing out found harmonics within the framework of the band's rich and melodic songscapes. Guitarists Johan Glasson and Peter Åkerberg create the underpinning for Reform's – at times, Steely Dan-like jazz-rock sound, while drummers Anders Bergman and Åke Eriksson provide the forward thrust, effectively filling passages with deft and meticulous hits and textures. Not to go unmentioned, bassist Jesper Bergman and keyboard player, Magnus Ramel's contributions are no less vital - and noteworthy, to Reform's decidedly adventurous leanings. Regardless of whether it's fusion jazz or spacey art rock, Reform's CD is a terrific set of original music by unique players with unbounded skills.

Hola!


Tack för en fin spelning i lördags på Sjöhästen. De nya låtarna lämnade verligen utrymme för alla musikanternas kreativitet. De bildade på något sätt en plattform för ett jam vilket ni kollektivt utnyttjade. Vilket drag det blev!!!

Gratulerar!





Ha det bra!

Ja du verkar ju vara något mer taggad som går från ord till handling:^)



Backstagefestivalen har jag dock aldrig hört talas om. Blir det inte
lite trångt där backstage?  Jag gissar att ni var festivalens stora
dragplåster så jag behöver väl inte ens fråga om det gick bra!

Sommaren har varit bra och hektisk:)

Hoppas även du har haft det skönt!


hälsar

Hey - Thanks for the friendship! Music links us all together. There are wars taking place in every country in the world. Some are just more obvious. Check out my new video "Simpler Time". Reach out and make a difference and the ripple will be felt around the world. It has to come from within each of us. The alternative is unacceptable. Music can make a difference. Keep reaching out.
