Dismantling conventional instrumentation roles, the band unleashes each members’ bend toward the extemporaneous on this debut statement. Uniting four corners of the United States at the cusp of a lockdown period, Esthesis Quartet features Denver-based pianist Dawn Clement, Swedish-born and New York-based flutist Elsa Nilsson, Chicago-based bassist Emma Dayhuff and LA-based drummer Tina Raymond. The assembly is characterized by an innate fascination with risk, uniting four players who continually re-evaluate their roles as soloists, performers and explorers. With original compositions molded by tactile sensitivity and exploratory improvising, Esthesis Quartet captures the meticulous spirit of collaboration integral to the group’s foundations. The reckless abandon with which the quartet approaches the discovery of new musical landscapes lends an intriguing journey, particularly when flutes and vocals come to the fore.

Heavy avant-garde improvisers Dan Rosenboom, Jake Vossler, and Tina Raymond evoke the spirit Butoh and the scale of Kaiju with enormous sound and fiery invention on their second album as Trio Subliminal. Recorded in 3 live, uncut takes at Rosenboom's BoomHill Studio, this album will shake your walls with unusual and exciting music!

Composer, sound artist, and flutist Rachel Beetz presents Unofficial, her first full-length album of improvisations exploring the electroacoustic flute with texture and noise.

Harpist Jacqueline Kerrod delves boldly into new territory on her debut solo release. 17 Days in December features an expansive set of solo harp improvisations culled from daily explorations Kerrod’s diverse credits include work with Anthony Braxton, serving as principal harpist with NY City Opera, and performances with Anohni, Rufus Wainwright and Kanye West.

Towers, the 2nd full-length record from drummer/composer Atticus Reynolds, presents a rich collection of original music written after relocating to Los Angeles in 2017 and joining LA’s new vanguard of emerging jazz improvisers. A collection of disparate musical ideas written since his move, the album was recorded over a two-day period in September 2019 and features some of Reynolds’ close friends and common musical collaborators in Los Angeles, including Devin Daniels on alto saxophone, Aidan Lombard on trumpet, Jon Hatamiya on trombone, Max Beck on bass, and Jordan Reifkind on guitar.
