dEN Records is more than excited to announce two new releases out on MARCH / 16.
It’s a big pleasure to welcome two musicians of such a high level like Claudio Guida (saxophones) and Marcello Testa (double bass) in the dEN family.
“Platform One” is a neverending discovery of great ideas and a fine taste on music. There’s 11 unique compositions that mix different musical genres but it never sounds missy with a high sense of focus. But what’s more impressive is the SOUND developed.
Inside also some liner notes by the italian contemporary composer and musician Claudio Lugo.
Almost any human endeavor carries some risk, but some are much more risky than others.
This is the brand new Stefano Ferrian project and actually one of the most “risky” to date.
7 original compositions between modern jazz, radical improvisation, jazz-rock, strongly influenced by legends like Steve Lacy, Thelonious Monk, Eric Dolphy and also some contemporary musicians like Ellery Eskelin, Mats Gustafsson and Ken Vandermark.
It features great musicians like Luca Pissavini on double bass (Demetrio Stratos Prize and Porsche Jazz Contest Winner), Vito Emanuele Galante on trumpet (Porsche Jazz Contest winner), Simone Quatrana on piano and Fabrizio Carriero on drums.
dEN Records is proud to announce a wonderful new release featuring some talented italian musicians.
Raw Frame are going to perform live at UMBRIA JAZZ 2012 on Sunday / 08 their brand new album “Krakovia” to be released on July / 15.
Raw Frame are Andrea Bolzoni (guitar), Salvatore Satta (bass) and Daniele Frati(drums).
The result is an elegant and melancholy kind of impro/jazz. The title-track is already available for a listen in the “Releases” section player.
Stefano Ferrian is an Italian multi-instrumentalist, involved in several projects in his home country. In 2011, he released a solo album, called Lophophora, one which I recently investigated and one which certainly made a big impression on me.
The occasional screeching guitar note aside, this album does well in presenting difficult avant-garde music with relatively “socially acceptable” patterns. Ferrian tackles the guitar in the same way that Fred Frith or Robert Fripp would, meaning that strange sequences are acceptable and in fact welcome, while at the same time keeping a cool control over the proceedings as well. The guitar and the rest of the music never gets away from him, as he never wanders too far into the obscure, but manages to present quite a multitude of crazy and bizarre ideas. The trick is in the way he does it – totally free while seemingly reserved and under control.
In terms of styles, we get just about the whole range of musical tastes here – from improvised jazz, metal, avant-garde rock, chamber music, world music, ambient,… you name it. The genres all mesh into this nice gooey collage of sounds from all over the musical map, yet keeping in the same spirit.
Ferrian gives us quite a chunk to digest. He tackles so many instruments on this album and manages to sound uniform and convincing on just about all of them. It is clear, however, that the guitar is where he is most at home at and he opens the window wide, so we may witness his skills on both the acoustic and electric. His saxophone skills are also extremely impressive and just like the guitar never stray too far, never being too self-important and annoying. Ferrian also occasionally uses vocals, but it’s more speak-singing than actual singing. If you are aware of the band Devil Doll, you’ll know what I mean.
Lophophora is a strangely beautiful album from an obviously extremely talented musician, one whom I definitely want to hear more from in the future. A thoroughly satisfying listen!
It’s a great honour to welcome in the dEN Records family the DOUBLE TANDEMfeaturing Ken Vandermark, Ab Baars and Paal Nilssen-Love.
Their brand new album “OX”, which has been recorded live in concert during their powerful performance at Novara Jazz Winter Session on April/20, will be released onOctober/15.
Simply worthless to go on with long descriptions regarding this brand new recording. It’s simply killer!!!

His brand new album “Lost Copyright” includes some of the best italian musicians in the likes of Dimitri Grechi Espinoza (saxophone, voice, piano), Luca Calabrese (trumpet),Stefano Solani (doublebass) and Filippo Monico (drums).
RARA AVIS is a brand new project born from the collaboration between Stefano Ferrian, Ken Vandermark and a pool of italian talented and emerging musicians.
The European Tour will take place from April/26 to May/09.
The quintet’s musical spectrum is pretty wide and covers almost all the possible influences of the improvisation scene.

dEN Records proudly announces three new releases to be out on APRIL/05 with a total re-designed awesome packaging!

No doubt about the fact that he’s one of the most important active trombonist on the scene.
“Eastuaries” is a wonderful example of how great improvisers can shape the music and reveals that the only way to reach freedom is a total control of the music.
It features the argentinian composer and improviser Andrew Raffo Dewar on soprano saxophone and the great Garrison Fewell on guitar.
RARA AVIS was born on 2012 from a collaboration between Ken Vandermark (reeds) andStefano Ferrian (saxophones).
It features some of the best and most active italian emerging musicians like Luca Pissavini (double bass), Simone Quatrana (piano) and SEC_ (revox, instant sound treatment).
It includes a bonus disc “Multicellulars Mutations” which features duo/trio recording.
“Nuhk” is born and believe us . . . it’s such a great thing!
it’s the result of the artistical marriage between Dalila Kayros and Antonio Zitarelli(Mombu/Neo) who helped Dalila to explores the gloomy depths of her beloved homeland – Sardinia.
The result is simply superb and unique. She can gently weep, sing or shout unearthly laments keeping everything coherent with the musical effort which is pretty wide since it includes compositions and improvisation as well. Not less important the Antonio’s contribution on the arrangements.
The lyrics are written in the Sardinian dialect which gives to this work of art a unique touch.
Obscure traditions meets modern potions – memories of an old time that still smells of matriarchy.
Dalila Kayros will present the new effort “Nuhk” live in concert on April / 05 at theNolebol Festival IV that will be held at the CSOA “La Strada” in Rome alongside acts in the likes of Fuzz Orchestra and Gronge.
Nicola Lancerotti is an italian double bass player based in Bruxelles. The brand new album “Skin” is a perfect example of balance between improvisation, structures and a wonderful thematic taste.

WhyOakTreeOh is a monster trio featuring Lawrence Williams (saxophones, voice), Hock Erno (double bass, bass guitar) and Sàrvàri Kovàcs Zsolt (drums).

Wonderfully played and composed it’s the perfect choice for the open minded.

“After the Chicago jazz icon Ken Vandermark learned he would be getting a $25,000 stipend for serving as this year’s artist in residence at the city’s annual Jazz Festival, his first thought wasn’t about the shiny new sax he could buy. Instead, he calculated how many European musicians he could bring to town to entertain the late-summer crowds that would gather at the Petrillo Music Shell in Grant Park.
