"don Ellis" "new Ideas"

The world is remarkable in that people from far off places and different walks of life can have an immediate, dramatic impact on each other after meeting just once. The notion of meeting a newcomer who embraces new people and ideas but also freely puts forth his own ideas is the theme of guitarist Davy Mooney and drummer Ko Omura’s new recording, Benign Strangers. Originally from New Orleans, Mooney is a longtime regular on the New York scene and, for the past year, he has been teaching at his alma mater, the University of North Texas in Denton. Mooney’s two Sunnyside releases, Perrier Street and Hope of Home, highlight his fantastic playing and composing with an incredible cast of musicians graced with the New Orleans magic, including saxophonist John Ellis, pianist Jon Cowherd and drummer Brian Blade.

Goose Announce New Drummer Cotter Ellis and Upcoming Album ‘Ted Tapes 2024’.Goose has announced that Vermont-based drummer Cotter Ellis has been officially selected to fill the band’s empty seat. Ellis is a familiar face to Burlington, Vt. concertgoers, known for his work with Zach Nugent’s Dead Set and several other jam cover outfits that have taken the stage at Nectar’s. Fortunately for fans eager to hear the new drummer’s fit with the quartet, this news is complimented by the revelation of a new full-length project to be released tomorrow and Ellis’ 30-minute audition tape with the band, which is available on YouTube now.

A series of near-riots on campuses aimed at silencing guest speakers has exposed the fact that our universities are no longer devoted to the free exchange of ideas in pursuit of truth. But this hostility to free speech is only a symptom of a deeper problem, writes John Ellis.

Twelve years after their last album Toward the Low Sun, Australia's improvisational, alt-everything instrumental trio Dirty Three return with their most ambitious undertaking; pianist/violinist Warren Ellis (who's been busy with Nick Cave projects), drummer Jim White and guitarist Mick Turner have created a symphony for the new century. The threesome returned to their now time-honored way of making music on the six-movement suite, Love Changes Everything: exploring textures; darting in and out sounds; working ideas until they are exhausted of possibility. The first movement opens with the band turning up before Ellis enters with dramatic string chords as White keeps time on toms and Turner grinds out a fuzzy line. Eventually they fall into a groove which comes to an abrupt end. It's a method—unchanged since its debut in 1994 with Sad & Dangerous—that's been fashioned into an intermittent but always rewarding career for the band.

3 of the best songwriters, arrangers and musicians of the New York music scene have united for this record. Listen carefully, there are so many splendid ideas hidden in the arrangements of these songs. Excellent sound from a mint record, with the frequency analyzer you can even see (and your dog can hear) the 22 kHz signal used to synchronize the tape machines – even in the 16Bit/48kHz mp3 files.
