Mondo Jazz

Show Notes

One of our favorite albums of the year, music born on the Chicago-LA express, a rediscovery of Bill Lee and a joyride with Isaiah Colleri, tributes to Herbie Hancock and Gilberto Gil, and a healthy dose of quantum mechanics... Sounds like a strange equation? Tune in to the wonderfully unpredictable world of Mondo Jazz and see if the pieces add up.

The playlist features Emma Dayhuff; The Descendands of Mike and Phoebe; Isaiah Collier; Helen Sung [pictured]; Gaia Wilmer, Mônica Salmaso; Heisenberg Uncertainty Players

Happy listening!

After a few weeks during which we’ve delved into the legacies of Cassandra Wilson, Stevie Wonder and Dave Holland, a huge pile of new releases has built up on our virtual desks and hard drives. And so we’re back to our usual format: plentiful of new releases, where the borders between jazz, global music, electronics and improvisation from all over the world become pleasantly blurry—and the only real requirement is curiosity.
