Congratulations JD! The first of many great reviews!!!

"The G Thing from JD Allen's new album TOYS / Die Dreaming.

“The G Thing” is an evocative tone painting which could serve as an appropriate soundtrack for a gritty, film noir detective movie. A free tempo opening sets the feel of the entire track, which somehow manages to be sultrily hot and minor-key cool at the same time. Once Allen establishes the tone, Ian Kenselaar sets a walking bass line into motion that accompanies the saxophonist’s series of improvisations. This is Allen’s tune all the way with no solos from his colleagues and JD makes the most of his rarely taken time alone in the spotlight. The free tempo from the opening returns and then leaves the bass and drums to finish the remarkable track playing the walking bass as a lonely duet, almost as if Allen himself has walked off into the distance, having said all he needed to say.

The album will be available tomorrow, 8/27/2020."

Jeff Cosgrove, with John Medeski + Jeff Lederer - 'History Gets Ahead of the Story' (2020) | Something Else!

Congratulations on the release Jeff! I really enjoyed working on this project. Great job!

Repost:This album by drummer Jeff Cosgrove featuring myself and John Medeski releases today - Mostly William Parker compositions, and a couple of mine and Jeff's too; wonderfully recorded at Applehead Studio in Woodstock and expertly mixed/mastered by Mike Marciano i think it's one of the best sounds on my tenor, clarinet and flute that I have ever gotten (soundcloud link in review). I really like this music, available everywhere today.

Being around William Parker has left a deep impression on drummer Jeff Cosgrove, and some of Parker's creative flair has apparently rubbed off on him, too.

Congratulations Alan Kwan on your 3 nominations!!!!

The Systems Two family is so saddened to hear of the news of Gerry Teekens' passing. Gerry was responsible for giving so many musicians the opportunity to express and establish themselves. It was such an honor for Systems Two to have worked so closely with him for so many wonderful years. He will be greatly missed.

Champian Fulton

Spent the day in the studio making my 12th album as a leader. This one was a bit tricky logistically (I flew in from Europe 12 hours before, Scott was only in town a short time, and Hide left for Japan 12 hours after we were done), but I was so glad the stars aligned and helped me get this record.

The record has a theme (I’ll be making you guess over the next few months!) And it’ll be out sometime in spring 2020.

I couldn’t have done this without my wonderful band or without Mike Marciano (of Systems Two) and this cool studio Samurai Hotel.

Love you guys a lot. (Hide Tanaka on bass, Fukushi Tainaka on drums, Stephen Fulton on flugelhorn and Scott Hamilton on tenor)

BTW - for those keeping score at home, my new album (#11) “Dream a Little...” is out October 11! Want to support all my recording efforts (lord I do love to make a record), please stream my music or order a physical copy for yourself or a friend. 🥰🥰🥰

My birthday present to myself (bday is September 12) is a NEW RECORD!!! “Live from Lockdown” hits all the digital platforms this FRIDAY! Featuring Stephen Fulton, Recorded by Systems Two Recording Studio, with liner notes by Charles Taylor, artwork by Takao Fujioka, and beautiful design by Ian Hendrickson Smith. I cannot wait to share this with you!! Reviews are already coming in —>>
Checking out the test pressings of “Live from Lockdown” and wowwww it sounds soooo amazing on vinyl. TBH the CD sounds pretty great too because they were all recorded, mixed and mastered by my favorite Mike Marciano at Systems Two Recording Studio!! CD & streaming comes out September 10!! 🤩 VINYL WILL BE AVAILABLE AROUND THE HOLIDAYS🤩
Last night after the Hopkins Jazz Jam, I received a DM from a fan in Spain (see photo) telling me she heard “Sometimes It Snows…” because V (Kim Taehyung) of BTS (currently the No. 14 artist in the entire world according to Billboard) added it to his “V’s Favorite Tracks” playlist on Spotify. His playlist has over 1M followers, so he’s soley responsible for potentially exposing my music to over a million people. Maybe he added my song because he’s a fellow saxophonist who began taking saxophone lessons in early middle school. Or, maybe it’s the Prince factor; after all, V coined the phrase “I purple you” during a fan meeting in 2016. He’s a big fan of jazz and classical music, apparently. At any rate, V is a mega star. “V” has been the most searched keyword in South Korea for the past five years. ☔️❄️ I would like to profusely thank V for sharing my music, and I would again like to thank Prince for the inspiration he’s given me to pursue my musical dreams for almost my entire life. ☔️❄️ And many thanks again to the amazing musicians on my new record: At the Systems Two Recording Studio session in Brooklyn (where we recorded “Sometimes It Snows...” Kris Johnson 🎺 Julian "J3PO" Pollack 🎹 Christopher Tordini 🔊 Nioshi Jackson 🥁 ☔️❄️ At the Funk Studios Utah session in North Salt Lake: Josh Francis 🎺 Tony Elison 🎹 Alex Rowe 🔊 Parker Swenson 🥁 ☔️❄️ Autographed vinyl and CDs are available for pre-order now at lonepeaksound.com
I’m humbled by the response that my new record, “Sometimes It Snows in April” (Lone Peak Sound) is receiving! Six days in, we’re approaching 60K Spotify streams - beyond my wildest expectations! ☔️❄️ Today I’m shouting out my NorCal homie turned Nashville powerhouse drummer, Nioshi Jackson. I’ve known this incredibly funny and talented cat, who proudly hails from Suisun City, CA, since the early ‘90s when we played with Delbert Bump together at Solano Community College. Since then, Nioshi has worked with a who’s who of icons, including: Trisha Yearwood, Michael McDonald, Dr Lonnie Smith, Steve Cropper, and Regi Wooten, to name but a few. ☔️❄️ It was a true thrill for me to bring such talented friends of mine together to record at Systems Two Recording Studio in Brooklyn, NY, back in May of 2016. My newest friend of the bunch, Detroit’s Grammy-nominated trumpeter 🎺 and arranger, Kris Johnson, just happened to be in NY while we were recording and fell by the studio. Julian "J3PO" Pollack 🎹 and Christopher Tordini 🔊 joined me for the first time since we recorded “Dreamsville” (Lone Peak Sound) together in 2011. And to top it off, one of my dearest friends from my old stomping grounds, Nioshi, joined us on drums 🥁. ☔️❄️ “Sometimes...” was the first song we recorded. I vividly remember Kris taking the second verse: “Springtime was always my favorite time of year; a time for lovers holding hands in the rain 🌧 “ and marveling at just how good everyone sounded without me doing a thing except playing Prince's beautiful melody and thinking of his universal message about how special our limited time on earth 🌎 is. I am beyond blessed. ☔️❄️ Pre-order vinyl and CDs at lonepeaksound.com! ☔️❄️ Cannonball Musical Instruments Silverstein Works Key Leaves ReedGeek
This handsome gent playing his bass at Systems Two Recording Studio in Brooklyn, NY is Christopher Tordini He’s the bassist on the title track of my new record, Prince’s lovely ballad, “Sometimes It Snows in April” on Lone Peak Sound which drops digitally on Friday. I first met Christopher when I produced Chase Baird’s debut, “Crosscurrent” in 2010. He’s a lovely human being, warm, friendly, and funny, and oh man, can he play the bass. He’s worked with many of New York’s finest musicians: Andy Milne, Becca Stevens, Ari Hoenig, Greg Osby... and in many of New York’s finest jazz venues. I feel incredibly blessed to have him on this new record. ☔️❄️ VINYL GIVEAWAY: Pre-save my new record using the link in my bio. I will choose a winner at random on Friday (release day) from all the pre-saves who will receive an autographed copy on vinyl!
One of the things that makes my new record, "Sometimes It Snows in April," special to me is the fact that I love all of the musicians on it dearly. Julian Pollack aka J3PO is no exception. We became fast friends when I produced Chase Baird's debut, "Crosscurrent," in 2010, and then recorded my "Dreamsville" record together in 2011. On May 16, 2016, less than a month after Prince left for the afterworld, Julian and I recorded together again, this time at Systems Two Recording Studio in Brooklyn, NY with Detroit's Grammy-nominated trumpeter and arranger, Kris Johnson, NYC bassist Christopher Tordini, and my Northern California homie, now Nashville's Nioshi Jackson. The title track of my new record is from this session. Shortly after we recorded at Systems Two, Julian began releasing music and videos as J3PO. "The '90s EP" was on repeat at my house for weeks if not months and "Small Plates" is still a perennial favorite of mine. Check those out if you haven't already! Simply put, Julian is a genius. No one has a touch like his on the piano and no one produces music with the clarity, intent, grace, and nasty grooves like he does as J3PO. Best of all, Julian is the sweetest guy with the biggest heart and the best sense of humor. I am beyond thrilled to have him on this new record and very excited to collaborate lots more with him in the future! "Sometimes It Snows in April" (Lone Peak Sound) drops digitally on April 30, 2021! Click the link in the first comment below to listen on your favorite streaming platform! Vinyl and CDs are coming soon as well!

I’ve had the pleasure to work with Jacelyn for the past couple of months doing PR for her upcoming debut album Dovetailing. JACELYN is honestly a powerhouse of a woman, a true artist, and what she has been able to accomplish is inspiring. In 2019 she was able to raise 60K on Kickstarter (which was nearly 200% over her asking amount!) to fund the production of her album. This put her in the top 5 campaigns in the world in the jazz category next to icons like Quincy Jones and QuestLove, which is almost unheard of for an emerging artist. She was able to bring in some of the best minds in music like pianist and composer Amina Figarova an acclaimed musician in her own right, two-time Grammy award winning engineer Max Ross of Systems Two Recording Studio, and a roster of amazing songwriters and collaborators from all over North America. The album is a really beautiful mix of jazz, pop, and blue-eyed soul, and it’s got something for everyone. Dovetailing comes out this Friday and you can pre-save it here: http://www.smarturl.it/dovetailing/ . #newmusic #newmusicfriday #torontojazz #jazzpop #jazzfusion #viralpost #jazzdance #jazzy #emergingartist #soulful #dovetailing #contemporaryartist #newartist #torontomusic #torontomusician
#beforecorona #musicmonday #concertmemories 2017 I released my first Album ,long distance' ❣️It was a special experience, we recorded in New York at Systems Two Recording Studio with many of my favorite New York friends and musicians 💜 Everything was recorded in a one day session, many of the songs that I wrote in my studying time at MSM and even before. It was a spontaneous idea to record as we were in NYC anyhow for a different project. My original pianist Giorgi Mikadze was unable to play, preparing for a tour in China. So over Caleb Mason I got to know Orange Julius who generously joined us. It was an exciting and special time Kaisa Mäensivu Oskar Stenmark Jeroen Truyen: Thank you everybody for the music, your support, inspiration and passion 😇
