Herring-Watson-Bartz: BIRD AT 100, Smoke Sessions
If Bird lives, this is the album! Three of the best mainstream saxophonists backed by a stellar rhythm section for Bird’s tunes, standards as well as originals.
Henning Bolte, Written in Music
Lumen Drones: UMBRA, Hubro
Magnus Nygren, OrkesterJournalen
Oya Sextett: LIVE, Signal and Sound
Swedish pianist Sebastian Bergström in a spirit rejoice. Joyful and brilliant executed, he and his band bring new life to the songs of South Africans like Dudu Pukwana, Chris McGregor and Louis Moholo.
Cim Meyer, Jazz Special
Maluba Orchestra: MALUBA, Stunt
A strong contender for the Danish Release of 2019 with great compositions by Mazur, Lundin and Bai and great soloists pointing towards a bright future without dropping the jazz tradition. The YouTube video is from one of their first public performances (if not the first).
Lars Mossefinn, Dag og tid
Reolô: ANDRE SIDA, ta:lik

Signe Emmeluth's Amoeba: CHIMAERA, Øra Fonogram
The Danish alto saxophonist and composer Signe Emmeluth is a great musician who has a strong sense of collective, narrative and whose energetic colors are generous. This second record contains all that. Well, it contains... let’s say it explodes instead!
Axel Stinshoff, Jazz thing

Paweł Brodowski, Jazz Forum
High Definition Quartet: DZIADY, Anaklasis
A fascinating new album by the young Polish pianist and visionary composer Piotr “Pianohooligan” Orzechowski. A musical re-imagining of the second part of the messianic drama FOREFATHERS (an ancient feast summoning the ghosts) by the great Polish romantic poet Adam Mickiewicz (1798-1855). It is a sort of suite, in which jazzy parts of the quartet – Mateusz Śliwa (ts / ss), Piotr Orzechowski (p), Alan Wykpisz (b), Grzegorz Pałka (d) – are juxtaposed with electronic sets offered by ambient masters William Basinski and Robert Rich (USA), Christian Fennesz (Austria) and Polish Krzysztof Knittel and Igor Boxx (from the duet Skalpel). A spiritual journey into the human soul.

Lumen Drones: UMBRA, Hubro
Norwegian folk music accessible to all the people of the world, and something better and more modern than what this trio is doing to further develop Norwegian folk music, is almost impossible to do. And they not even play the traditional songs – everything is written by the trio! A gem of a recording!
