Review: Shay Hazan - When It Rains It Pours (Batov Records)

Bassist, composer and producer Shay Hazan returns with his third solo album, ‘When It Rains It Pours’ on Batov Records where we find a shift away from previous global, jazz, funk and spiritual sounds to different global, jazz, funk and spiritual sounds!

If you can image Shay Hazan's last album 'Wusul' (Arabic for 'arrival' - see review HERE) being remixed and re-produced by Carlos Niño, Flying Lotus, Tinariwen all at the same time as this multi-instrumentalist works his magical synths and percussion into 11 new tracks. 

With the key players of the last album Eyal Netzer (tenor sax) on three tracks and Shahar Haziza (drums) on 'Embrace', Ziv Taubenfeld (bass clarinet) on another three tracks plus Roy Zuzovsky (trumpet) and Abate Berihum (vocals) both on the opener 'Kolot' the sound is similar whilst There seems to have been a move away from the Mulatu afro-jazz groove and less show-off twangy guitar ('Move On') but there's more than one stand-out track here as '4-8' lights up the jazz-dance and the global-hip-hop-rock of 'It Pours' and 'Haziza Has Got The Juice'.

It'll be a harsh critic to say the move from double bass to electric bass and no guimbri due Shay's developing joint issues has been a happy accident and you'll remember that the last album drew comparisions with Rejoicer and Nitai Hershkovits' 'Cinema Royal' (see review HERE) and you know what they say, "When It Rains It Pours" and in terms of this album, it sounds like its all for the good rather than bad.

Interview: Coco Chatru Quartet's 'Lost Christmas' Part 1 (with leader Håkan Trygger of Trygger Music)

Coco Chatru Quartet's 'Lost Christmas' is our 4th encounter with the group led by Håkan Trygger so we thought it was about time we had a chat about the new album, Ballin' The Jack Orchestra and "raising your jazz spirits with not the obvious seasonal fayre"!

If you're new to the Trygger Music "family', we know that the Coco Chatru Quartet have just released their third album, 'Lost Christmas' (see review HERE) that was preceeded by the album 'Future' (see review HERE) and 'Limbokolia' (see review HERE) but it was only recently we learnt of the Ballin' The Jack Orchestra that's fronted by trumpet player, Thomas Driving (an original member of Gugge Hendrenius Big Blues Band that started in the early 70s) and included trombonist Dicken Hedrenius (son of Gugge) and Ture Trygger (son of Håkan); not forgetting Charlie Malmberg as member of both BTJO and CCQ).

So it seemed a good time to investigate what's going on with modern Swedish jazz and Christmas at a recent reheasal:- 

Gerry Hectic (YATM): Can you tell me something about Coco Chatru Quartet, and the thoughts behind the album 'Lost Christmas'? 

Håkan Trygger: Coco Chatru Quartet is a jazz project that originated as a collaboration between the members of the band and the Swedish artist John Andersson. The plan was to make three albums with covers by Andersson.

Charlie Malmberg (member of Gugge Hendrenius Big Blues Band, BallinTheJackOrchestra, baritone sax and saxophonist in CCQ): 'Future' had to be the first, obviously.

Linus Kåse (alto sax): When I saw John’s artwork »En syn – Tiden« (»A Vision – The Time« I knew instantly that the trilogy had to culminate in a Christmas album.

Daniel Kåse (drums/vibe): When we got deeper into the Coco Chatru project, new things were made clear to us.

HT: Yes, while thinking about Christmas song to record, we found new information about Coco Chatru.

CM: When we heard the rumours that Coco Chatru had starred in a Christmas movie, it was made clear that Linus was right all along. We had to do a Christmas album.

YATM: How did the new record evolve from the previous two albums?

DK: The trilogy of albums fit together musically through the sound, familiar style…

CM: … the way we play. Even though we’ve broadened the palette of sound by adding more instruments on the later records.

LK: Sleighbells!

HT: No Christmas music is possible without sleighbells.

DK: The music on the first two albums evolved when we played them on gigs.

HT:  We also have more music, several recorded songs that did not fit into the albums musically and thematically. So the trilogy is not a finished project.

LK: Rather it is the beginning.

HT: The first trilogy in the Coco Chatru Saga.

DK: Yes. More albums are coming!

CM: … We have also produced music with CCQ for other projects; for example, we have done concerts together with poets and actors.

LK: Yes, we then added synthesizers and electronic devises. Big beats.

YATM:  Ok. What do we need to know about a Swedish Christmas traditions that we don't know about (especially related to the track titles)?

DK: We couldn’t record traditional Christmas music, not with this band. Even if we all like the Christmas Classics, both the jazz Christmas classics and the Swedish traditional music.

LK: There are lots of Swedish traditional Christmas songs.

HT: Several of them are drinking songs, like Hej tomtegubbar slå I glasen (»Hello Tomte Jubbas / Gnome-lads, raise your glasses«).

DK: Or songs that people used to sing and play while they danced around the Christmas Tree. Like Räven raskar över isen (»The Fox rushes over the ice«). Several of these songs are also sung at Midsommar, Midsummer’s Eve, in Sweden.

LK: Yes and we eat the same food at Christmas and at Midsummer parties. The song »Coco raskar över isen« on Lost Christmas is a playful shoutout to Räven raskar, combining folk rythms and melodies with jazz.

HT: And your songs, Linus, »Gästerna kommer« and »Prosten«…

LK: What about them?

HT: I think you said you were inspired by Ingmar Bergman, and his big scenes with dramatic dark undertones?

LK: Did I say that? … yes they have a sinister intent.

DK: Regarding Christmas, the word for Christmas in Swedish is »Jul«. A very old word going back to medieval heathen ages.

HT:  Yes, probably Jul was originally used for heathen midwinter celebrations, »midvinterblotet«, the sacrifice-party of winter.

LK: And also Jultomten – Father Christmas or the Christmas Gnome – has a special form in Sweden. He appears on the 24^th of December, suddenly knocking on the door…

DK: Pounding on the door.

LK: Yes, very loud. And giving presents to the kids.

CM: And before Jultomten, back in the old days, it was Julbocken (the Christmas-Goat) who pounded on the door.

HT: Julbocken!

DK: But Julbocken, I think, did not give presents to the kids. Rather it was some sort of public mischief…

LK: Yes, a Carnival! Julbockens karneval.

YATM: Any future gigs/radio appearances lined up?

DK: We have a series of gigs in the Stockholm area in December.

LK: Promoting 'Lost Christmas'.

CM: And we’re doing a Christmas show on a theatre in Södermalm, Stockholm, called Ö2scenkonst, together with an actor portraying Coco Chatru as the teller of horror stories.

HT: We are presently booking gigs for 2026. We would really love to come and play in England, Gerry!

YATM:  We'll certainly be looking forward to that but is there anything else about the band/you that you want to tell us?

DK: More music is coming. And more albums!

HT: We are also planning for a major film music project in cooperation with a movie theatre in Stockholm. The plan is that we are going to compose and perform music to Frits Lang’s classic Metropolis, during late fall 2026.

LK: We will continue to record new music and perform live, further exploring the adventures of Coco Chatru.

Well, as we thank the band for their time and insight on all things CCQ, (Ed. how exciting to hear news of a soundtrack as music inspired by Fritz Lang's classic futuristic silent film 'Metropolis' from 1927 for a 100 anniversary!)  we definitely going raise a glass to 'Lost Christmas' this month and check out some Swedish traditions (musically at least?)

Review: Yako Trio, Harris Lambrakis & James Wylie - Woven (Fair Weather Friends Records)

Blue Note in Greece?, Well it could be as Yako Trio presents thier new album 'Woven' with special guests Harris Lambrakis and James Wylie.

Well, we're having quite a 'Greek Week' at YATM after the experimental / improvisational Victor Tsilimparis, George Palamiotis, Sotiris Tsolis album, 'The Persistence Of Doubt' (see review HERE) compared to this 'straight' jazz by the impeccable Yako Trio (so good that this could have been recorded at the Van Gelder Studios in the 60s or released on Impulse!) with James Wylie (alto and tenor saxophones) and ethnomusicolgy doctorate, Harris Lambrakis (on ney).

There's something of Horace Silver Trio about this when Leandros Pasias is on piano and then on electric keys ('Klountzoa') we drift into a fusion, not fully 'Lonnie Liston Smith', but it leans that way with the excellent Vangelis Vrachnos (double bass) and Giorgos Klountzos Chrysidis (drums) who are make the trio tight bop-post bop unit

Perhaps it's because the addition of Lambrakis you'd think we'd be fully on Yussef Lateef with Lambrakis playing the ney (an end-blown flute that figures prominently in traditional Persian, Turkish, Jewish, Arab and Egyptian Music) but it's definitely close at times, 'Sweet Lotus' at one extreme and 'Speaking Voice' at the other with 'Impromptu' in the middle.

Then, perhaps it's the additon of Wylie that weaves this album into something special? He's certainly a bit part of the seven tracks of "East meets West" jazz connection as a proper jazz quintet that play as one.

Very limited vinyl release on this one and great artwork to go alongside the LP so get on it quick.

Review: Unknown Artist - Trentsetter (Shadow Pressings)

This 12" is slated to be 'Sold Out' very soon like the rest of the limited vinyl releases on the label so act now to get these four tracks so you too can be a 'Trentsetter'!

With previous releases on Shadow Pressings entitled, 'It Started In Chicago', 'In The House Club' and 'My Soul', you get the idea as to where this is going, hence 'Trentsetter'; as in Ron Trent, his latet album 'Lift Off' came out earlier this year -  see review HERE)

So you'll get the vibe of the shadowy figure of 'Unknown Artist' on white labels in deep "Chicago basements" and night time "Detroit lofts" as 'Am I' goes under a 90s organ with chopped up stabs of synth to spoken word, "I am the only one, that makes you lose your mind?"

Well, it's not the only track here that make you lose your mind.  The title track is heavy of the vocal repitition that could have been some sort of early Wetheral mix before the synth gettng pumpin' - rave party efficient is high. And taking of which, 'Unreleased Slices' take in that even earlier sound of the 'Pinky 'n Perky' period with raw technics that's sounds like been polished with modern equipment but with losing that energy - more organ again.

The other track, 'Dreamed Up Ecstasy' sound like a combination of the best bits of other three with some chimes on the synth leading the way as if it was ready for a seasonal rave (although it's not even close to 'Hark! The Heral Angels Sing).

If you're into classic house and beatdown Detroit, with the likes of DJ Split and Detroit's  Mike 'Agent X' Clark having released on Shadow Pressings previously, this is just one of the reasons releases from Shadow Pressing's 12s fetch the big bucks on the re-sale sites so get in quick and order now - see link below.

P.S. Did I ever tell you about the time Agent X was my 'warm-up' DJ on a radio station! Another time.

Review: Ilhan Ersahin's Istanbul Sessions - Yeditepe / Asmalı (Nublu Records)

Ilhan Ersahin's Istanbul Sessions is world's away again, "guiding listeners through a sonic exploration of Istanbul's diverse neighborhoods where tradition meets innovation and the ancient pulse of the city merges with contemporary rhythms" -this is the latest release on New York’s legendary Nublu Records!

We know from the last single, 'Galata' / 'Karaköy' (see review HERE) that Istanbul's Sessions' by Ilhan Erashin is building up to the sixth studio album, 'Mahalle' that's due out mid-January next year which finds itself next to the recent avant-garde label release, JMMR's 'Resistance Is Fertile' (see review HERE).

Swedish born-Turkish heritage-NYC living saxophonist-club owner Ilhan has managed to merge the jazz-rock-fusion of Acoustic Ladyland with Thundercat funk on 'Asmali' which is advanced jazz funk on anyone's menu.  And talking cross-genre influences, is that some sophisticated punk a la Joy Division on 'Yeditepe' with some insane percussion: there's a lot going on here.

Once more, NY jazz reinforces my suggest that these guys at Nublu are the embodiment of, "We must get closer to the essence of life" and this 'Jazz Chronicles' for 2025/6 and beyond

Love the cover photo, reminds me of camping out at Cheltenham racecourse many moons ago.

Review: Devra - On the Way EP (Root Records)

Whilst the name Devra might sound like a staid office of government, this Devra is anything but and he's definitely 'On The Way' with his second EP out this week.

I've said it before of The Offline that there's an added sense of Italian OST/Bob James cool a la Calibro 35/Malcolm Catto and a host of your favourites from the Melbourne area (Surpriseth Chef, Robohands, Karate Boogaloo etc) and Devra (aka Fabio De Angelis) has got this jazzed up on this new EP.

In fact, it's no coincidence that the "Hamburg-based cinematic hip-hop producer" known as The Offline springs to mind as he features on the single, 'RSB Variations' (Ed. that's not Reinforced Steel Beams' then?) and with Jackson Mathod (trumpet) featuring on 'Vondelpark Bop' (named after the famous park in Amsterdam) that is full of the spirit of Roy Hargrove/RH Factor/Robert Glasper this EP is going to be selling fast. 

'Mill Street Samba' features the keys of Paul Grant, known for his "brand of sun-soaked Californian beats" which chills with "Devra's Mediterranean jazz flair" which belongs in the summer.

We're told, 'Monday Tune' was "inspired by the spontaneous energy of jam sessions at Nublu in New York City. “I spent about a month in NYC in winter 2023, and heard a lot of great music, but those nights at Nublu really stuck with me — raw, honest, vibrant energy.” And just in case you don't know, check out these recent releases on Nublu and this months', JMMR album 'Resitance Is Fertile' - see review HERE). 

The title track slips in some ChatGPT with some meticulous drum beats which means this Italian drummer, producer and composer is going to be on a lot of guest lists this coming season as you know all the DJs will be playing this, like fans as varied as Craig Charles, Jamie Cullen and Huey Morgan on BBC Radio, Tom Ravenscroft and Tim Garcia on Rinse FM, John Osborne and Tony Minvielle on Jazz FM, and more.

Review: Victor Tsilimparis, George Palamiotis, Sotiris Tsolis - The Persistence Of Doubt (Byrd Out)

If you didn't know already, the team at YATM have a taste for the strange and the visionary and that's exactly what 'The Persistence of Doubt' is: "a 30-minute album built from a live improvisation—Rhodes, synths, bass, and drums that was then pulled apart, looped, layered, and stitched back together".

Who could resist?  We're also told, "with flashes of electric-era Miles and a bit of that experimental energy you here coming out of Athens" and we know from Kolida Babo (see review HERE) and 'Athos: Echoes from the Holy Mountain' (see review HERE) that there's no shortage of mesmerising, hypnotic and experimental sounds to be found.

From the opening of 'What Was Has Become' that these guys aren't far behind the Monday night "jam sessions at Nublu in New York City [filled with] raw, onest, vibrant energy.” such as the recent JMMR album, 'Resitance Is Fertile' - see review HERE. 

'In Current' is electricfied gentle flowing Ilissos with some short wave interference, 'Saturn' is like a rock version (not very Sun Ra), 'Heat' is goes higher up the radiant ring as they head up the radio frequency levels before they hit their 'Miles' period with 'Off'. 

The DJs will be playing this are likely to range of BBC Radio 3's 'New Music Show' (who have recently featured Leo Chadburn - 'Sleep In The Shadow of The Alternator' - see review HERE) and BBC 6 Music Deb "explosive jazz" Grant and her ex-side kick, Tom Ravenscrot; not so much Tony Minvielle on Jazz FM?

I could do with more 'Off' than the other tracks but for a mere £2.50 for the digital album - it's definitely worth the price of the download.

Review: Pat Lok & Megan Vice - Spectrum Remixes w/ Sebb Junior & JIALING (toucan sounds)

We know that "Girls on the Spectrum just wanna dance" from a couple of months ago but this is the 'Spectrum' remixes which is all toucan sounds positive too!

Even so, this is not exactly like the last release we featured on YATM, Disko Cowboy (with Brandon Markell Holmes) on vocals - see review HERE - as Brooklyn, NYC hosts Vancouver’s Pat Lok and Berlin-based Megan Vice meet "at the crossroads of R&B, House, and electronic club culture" now with added jazz-funk!

We loved the single that came out with 'Waste My Time' and instrumental versions (see review HERE) but here's a couple of remixes that you're bound to hear at the release party this Friday, 5th December, at 'Dead Letter No. 9', 63 Grand St, New York, NY 11249-4110.

Seb 'Sound Of Life' Junior (see review HERE) pumps even more dance/life the first remix and then does some more clever stuff to the jazz with a dub element.

Brooklyn 'local' JIALING gets on the breaks focusing on the 'spectrum' and 90s keys to rave about with a speed percussion lesson - kicks in the nuts this one.

Talking of kicks and balls, it's a bit of a bummer if you've been on a press junkit to FIFA's World Cup draw yesterday and have had to come back to the office before Friday; but at least you can now get this on vinyl.

Review: Declan McDermott - Doin' It All 4 U (inc Tom Trago & Lovetempo Remixes) (Delusions Of Grandeur)

I'd normally say, "In typical Delusions Of Grandeur style", but the Jimpster et al team have excelled themselves with Declan McDermott's debut by getting a couple of remix big guns on the case, after all, they're 'Doin' It All 4 U'! 

It's strange to think that there's a couple of recent releases that got us thinking of about Gilles Peterson's "St. Germain" period and along comes Declan McDermott's track 'Dani' with some deep house jazz featuring Luxonous (aka Omri Abramov) on soprano sax and EWI (that's electronic wind instrumet to you) that does echo some français about it with its waterfall of the seine wading with the sax in the wind.

Now, you'd say that was enough to get you excited about one EP, but wait, what is this all about?  Whilst there's no obvious link to Peterson with 'Doin' It All 4 U', (apart from his Level 42 obsession) I bet you can guess that where lovetempo comes in (see review HERE) you immediately fall in love(tempo) with it as it's as if Jaco does a Ritchie Rome in the house.

Not only that, there's a remix by Holland's Tom Trago, the DJ/Producer (most associated with the Rush Hour label for the best part of 20 years) and our favourite bass player/singer/band member, lovetempo (with both vocal and instrumental versions); an amazing agile twist into electro/disco/boogie of New York origins both re-works stand out like a night at Studio 54! 

Australian Declan McDermott is now based in Berlin and his energence as a musician and producer, with this debut EP for Delusions Of Grandeur, is much like the impact of lovetempo and his emergence from The Rapture a couple of years ago.  What with other soul-funk-house-boogie monsters, this is the groove for party season 2025. .

Review: MAde, Storken, KAPPEKOFF - Et Helvete's Rabalder (Paper Recordings)

Paper Recordings are cutting deep with this one as it just goes to show that if you're locked up in Norway fed on a diet of Todd Terje, Lindrøm and all things Prins Thomas and Full Plupp before the party season starts you get 4 tracks on an EP, 'Et Helvete's Rabalder; which roughly translates as, "Party On"!

Well, that's not strickly true as a translation but if you took a bit of Lakeshouse's disco, (check out their album that came out earlier this year, 'On Verda Mi' see review HERE) and put up some fuzzed out samples in an early Razor-N-Tape style, you've got some New Yor(kt)hern Light disco winner that Ian D would be proud of (Ed. the former pupil of the Essex School of Art, Walthamstow campus) with 'Tylen Fra Sande'.  

Not only that, there's a remix by Storken (Sweden) that's a bit more gitch/bass/percussion centric with less strings; but that's not to say it's 'raw' as there's the healthy 'keep warm' vocal to keep it as a dancefloor winner like the orginal.  And wait for them synths to wobble.

And that's not all, of the other track, MAde and Keppekoff have caught some more zeitgeist with Grace Jones being the office 'album of the week' a couple of weeks' back, Kruder & Dorfmeister's K & D Sessions being referenced more as influences and echoes of Erykah that's filtered into 'Spillopper I By'n'.  Whilst on the remix, Keppekoff fires up all the synths to fly out to the Norweigen space lab to have a disco in the stars.

 

I hope this is coming out on vinyl in time for the annual Essex exodus summer party that's held in Dorset but we'll have to enjoy the downloads for the time being - stay tuned, this is great!
