about
Intakt CD 220
La Planète Quartet is one of Aki Takase's newest ensembles, arising from her partnership with the French clarinettist Louis Sclavis. Right from the start Aki Takase envisaged realising Flying Soul with an instrumental palette comprised of strings and Louis Sclavis recommended two of his long-term colleagues to her, the violinist Dominique Pifarély and the cellist Vincent Courtois.
"On Flying Soul Aki Takase manages to shape the proportions in her music – of time, space and sound – with impressive ingenuity, without restraining the sounds", writes Julia Neupert in the Liner notes. "Defying gravity, breathing freely, transforming yourself constantly: this aim has undoubtedly been achieved."

Old Locks and Irregular Verbs
by Henry Threadgill's Ensemble Double Upsupported by 11 fans who also own “Flying Soul”
So,so pleased and gratified to see Henry's Pi Recordings on BC! He is, without exception, one of the most visionary and extraordinary composers of the 20th/21st Century, in my humble view...I have listened to him for decades (the Mosaic Box Set is an essential experience) and his current band, Zooid is very important, I think (but then, he doesn't need my approbation; I listen with old ears)...if you don't know his work then listen to anything/everything you can get your hands on... His musical acumen astounds me...this new album is no exception...recommended; body and soul...

It is wonderful news to finally have the Swiss Intakt label catalogue available on BC...these terrific European labels (Intakt,Hat Art,FMP,Clean Feed et al) are really heroic; they have been putting out brilliant music for years and they endure because they really love the music and want to make it available...it is a mission. The Intakt catalogue is full of treasure for the serious listener and I will be revisiting old favourites and new releases for sure...download the pdf catalogue for free and start checking it out! The combination of Takase, von Schlippenbach and the brilliant music of Eric Dolphy (another Hero) was just too good to ignore! This music (and the entire catalogue) will stretch you,intrigue you and enrich you,I think.

Seconds
by Bloodcount & Tim Bernesupported by 11 fans who also own “Flying Soul”
Free Jazz at its best. Only discovered Tim Berne recently. I love the tension between structure and improvisation on this live album. You get extended really crazy improvisations out of which a structured driving riff will appear. Its really thrilling! Like tension exploding! So yeah, I love Bloodcount but I realise this wont be for everyone 😁.
