"Like last year's brilliant
Wings Dipped in Fire
(FTR 398CS, 2023), this new album was recorded by
Taylor Hales
at Chicago's Electrical Audio. But this time, the duo (once known at
Mako Sica
) is joined not just by keyboard/trumpet master
Thymme Jones
, but also percussionist
Hamid Drake
, bassist
Tatsu Aoki
(on shamisen) and bassist
Joshua Abrams
. A total post-form all-star line-up, with more combined chops than a breakfast table crammed with lumberjacks. The mood on
june 22
is weird and simmering. Blasts of heat alternate with spaced-out jam abstractions with
Brent Fuscaldo
's vocals and
Przemyslaw Krys Drazek
's guitar and trumpet dodging in and out of available crevices. As with all of this combo's recent music, exactly what genre they occupy is not easy to say. This is something they share with this generation of Chicago improvisers, who often seem to begin in jazz, but evolve into something much more intangible, mysterious and beautiful. Just as Abrams'
Natural Information Society
is making sounds requiring multi-hyphonic descriptives, so
Drazek Fuscaldo
have dissolved categorical confines, although their journey to this point began in a rock (or post-rock) formulation. By now the music contains multitudes -- jazz, folk, world music, avant-garde experimentalism and beyond. It defies being called anything other than MUSIC. Great music. And to quote the Captain once again, 'If you got ears, you gotta listen.' Don't know what else to say, except
june 22
is a killer." --
