Brazilian-born bassist Marcelo Bonfim is relatively new on the scene. This is his debut recording, and it is a good one. Based in Chicago, Bonfin entitles one of his compositions "When I First Met You." One thinks it must have been some first date, because the tune is a bit more frantic than most on this recording. It is the atmosphere rather than striking melodies that come through. Whether or not the harmonies and time evoke John Coltrane and McCoy Tyner is a matter of a listener's vintage, although the piano comping of Casey Dahl certainly suggests resonances. At all odds, this is a surprisingly mature first recording. One expects to hear good things in the future about Bonfim. Nevertheless, Bonfim appears to have the usual mixed feelings about any really distant foreign home: some up, some down. Major to minor.

For composer, author and saxophonist Anders Svanoe place is the space. That last part needs no correction as the proud Wisconsinite creates an abundance of sound 150 miles north of Chicago. He has been releasing his State Of The Baritone series, and Astro Eclipse is volume 6. Previously, he has investigated Latin jazz with El Dragón: State Of The Baritone Volume 5 (Irrabagast Records, 2022), Solo Flight: State Of The Baritone Volume 4 ((Irrabagast Records, 2019), plus a couple of State of The Baritone trio recordings, and a sextet.

Jazz music has proliferated through generations traditionally by means of the oral tradition—meaning that knowledge is passed on by mentors, some by personal connection and others by more casual means. In modern times, this tradition lives alongside the jazz school phenomenon, where classrooms and studios incubate talent, while students inescapably still must pay their dues on the bandstand, playing with musicians that are more accomplished and more experienced.

Most of us who engage in heavy alcohol use do so to self-medicate. And we self-medicate because we don’t know how to feel, process, and sit with our uncomfortable emotions. There are many ways to avoid uncomfortable feelings; heavy alcohol use is just one way (among many) to numb out, avoid, or escape. A lot of us who have abused alcohol, myself included, do so to regulate our emotions, or we think we are regulating our emotions through self-medication.

Daniel Bennett has carved out a unique jazz sound, recognized via numerous reviews and awards for the Daniel Bennett Group. Compositions change keys and meter quickly, sometimes from bar-to-bar-to-bar, yet the melody and improvisations follow a smooth, logical path. The arrangements are compact, with instrumentations that can hint at folk or soundtrack music. Bennett's tone across woodwinds is consistently sweet. Although the supporting musicians have changed over the years, the band is always perfectly locked in. A great point from which to start your journey exploring this music is "The Hills of Beijing." The piece combines all these elements into a pulsing, enigmatic meditation. For more insights, see the album review of Mr. Bennett's Mind.
