about

On August 22/23, 2015 the Kingston Jazz Composers Collective (KJCC) gathered together at Newcourt Studio to record new music.

We decided to record using a combination of old and new techniques: utilize the latest digital technology but also use some recording techniques from a bygone era.

The studio itself is one room with no isolation booths or baffles. We set up facing each other and adjusted our playing volume until we could all hear each other. No headphones were used, no overdubbing was done, no editing was done. We recorded multiple takes of each tune then picked the take we were all happy with. What you hear is what we played.

This is the second volume of tunes from the recording session.

ILL CONSIDERED - LIVE AT THE CRYPT
by Ill Considered

supported by 7 fans who also own “Newcourt Sessions, Vol. 2”

Had everyone had warning of what to expect? "Opener" set the scene for those unsure newcomers. "Long Way Home" - an apt title: what a break. Idris wanders off leaving Leon, Emre and Satin to find the way... with a joyful reunion at the end. The journeys continue through the rest of the show - Leon constantly providing that anchor around which the wonder this world - and, of course, Other Worlds - fly at their own pace. You may know of Janek Gwizdala - if not Hidden Treasures gives hints. Peter Jones

Sheer Tyranny Of Will
by Peripheral Vision

supported by 6 fans who also own “Newcourt Sessions, Vol. 2”

As critics say this is determined as a fusion approach of "Canterbury-style" of jazz-rock with contemporary elements. Let's believe them. Every track has a gift for listeners: an unexpected appearance of well-done culmination, a change of mood or music style, a beautiful harmony, the great guitar solo (in P.Metheny style or rock oriented), the gorgeous sound of sax or electronics, suddenly appeared out of nowhere and disappears into nowhere. They are nominated for JUNO 2016. I wish them to win)) Olga Kivius
