This morning's #workout #music is from Roscoe Mitchell & Moor Mother performing in 2019. It was The Art Ensemble of Chicago's "We Are On The Edge" that introduced me to Moor Mother, so I was excited to see this concert come across my feed. A must-see collaboration.

Saba Alizadeh & Farzané (NL/IRN) + Vehicle/Passenger (US/CW/DE)
OCCII, Friday, October 23 at 08:30 PM GMT+2
Saba Alizadeh
Architect of Power Ambient
Saba Alizadeh occupies a singular space in contemporary music ,a sonic language so distinct it seems to exist outside comparison.
Coming from a distinguished musical lineage and shaped by more than two decades as a composer, producer, and performer, he has developed an artistic voice that merges deep cultural memory with fearless sonic experimentation.
Across four critically acclaimed albums, he has continuously expanded the boundaries between contemporary composition, electronic music, and Persian sonic heritage.
Having lived through defining social and political ruptures – from witnessing the fall of the Berlin Wall as a child to experiencing the Green Movement and the Woman, Life, Freedom uprising in Iran – his work carries the emotional residue of history not as commentary, but as lived memory transformed into sound.
Emerging from Tehran’s underground electronic scene, Alizadeh forged a deeply personal language where Persian classical music, experimental electronics, archival recordings, and cinematic tension dissolve into what critics have called “Power Ambient.”
At the center of his performances stands the Kamancheh: the ancient Persian bowed instrument whose raw, human cry he reshapes through live processing and sonic experimentation into something both ancestral and radically contemporary.
His live sets unfold like fragments of forgotten cinema – dense, haunting, and physical. Continuously reimagining how history, memory, and resistance can breathe through modern sound.
”A bridge between the ancient and the contemporary” — The Wire
”A fresh, compelling soundscape” — Pitchfork
”Hope as an act of resistance” — Frankfurter Rundschau
”Music that feels like a cinematic unfolding of history” — Chain D.L.K.
”The stringed Kamancheh is a living soul and primal voice” — Veil of Sound

Farzané
(Farzaneh Nouri), an Iranian sound artist, creative coder, and researcher based in the Netherlands, works at the intersection of experimental music and computer science. Her ongoing practice-based research focuses on embodied knowledge in improvisational settings with machines. Embracing AI’s fundamental otherness while establishing relational connections, her practice aims at creating conditions of genuine encounter and collaborative destabilization between the artist and the machine. This speculative approach moves beyond technological determinism and cultural essentialism, exploring how human and machine intelligences might co-evolve through creative tension and collaborative aesthetic discovery.

VEHICLE/PASSENGER
Ethereal yet full of raw power. A tour-de-force of artistic expression combined with an urgent message on the state of our world.
In VEHICLE/PASSENGER we gather around thoughtful, radical poetry, as it weaves through energetically improvised pieces and delicate soundscapes. Exploring a queer perspective on body, society and improvisation. The trio reveals a unified, futuristic sound, repositioning the past, present and future of experimental music, free jazz, hip-hop, live electronics and poetry.
“An energy and urgency without simple slogans.” – WDR, Odilo Clausnitzer
“Vehicle/Passenger has created one of the most honest and unique recordings of 2024.” – All About Jazz, Maurice Hoge
The Ballad of a Never-ending Elevator Accident – VEHICLE/PASSENGER – Live in AmsterdamM Alberto (NL/AN) – poetry , saxophones and electronics
Lesley Mok (US) – drums and percussion
Florian Herzog (DE) – double bass and electronicsM. ALBERTO (they/them), is a Euro-Carribean improviser, award-winning poet and composer. Born in Curacao and currently based in the Netherlands. M.’s work is explicitly political, and always critical of colonial structures. They are one of the driving forces behind theatre collectives Boys won’t be Boys, as well as a steady collaborator in other critical productions. They have performed internationally on diverse stages and theatres from The Royal Concertgebouw and the Dutch National Opera to pop-festivalslike Sziget, Rock Werchter and Pinkpop.
FLORIAN HERZOG, bassist and composer, is a pioneer of the German and international jazz and avant-garde scenes whose bass playing has been described by the press as “emancipated, spirited and sensitive.”
He has worked with established greats like Theo Bleckmann, Jim Black and Nils Wogram, but also with the new generation and musicians like Anna Webber, Elias Stemeseder and Nick Dunston.
LESLEY MOK (they/them) is a percussionist and interdisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn, NY, who works in sound, installation, film, and theater. Interested in the ways social conditions shape our beings, Lesley’s work focuses on overacting humanness to explore ideas about alienness and privilege. Their work draws from queer and feminist art practices, Chinese philosophy, Caribbean folkloric musical traditions, futurist perspectives, and ancestral knowledge. Their critically acclaimed debut album ‘The Living Collection’ was awarded with a prestigious Deutscher Jazz Preis in 2024.

Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear a free jazz pioneer. born in Poplar Bluff, Arkansas, play a Sidney Bechet tune.
Joseph Jarman, born in Poplar Bluff, was a founding member of the Art Ensemble of Chicago. He played sax ... and you have probably seen photos of him on stage, in costume, with his face striped with white grease paint.

Moor Mother w/ Aquiles Navarro & Olof Melander + James McClure & Joao Guerra
OCCII, Thursday, June 4 at 08:30 PM GMT+2
SPACEIS THE PLACE:: “Moor Mother live at OCCII” Moor Mother w/ Aquiles Navarro & Olof Melander + James McClure / Joao Guerra Duo
Surprise gig! Moor Mother plays live at OCCII (Amsterdam), backed up by her musical soulmates Aquiles Navarro and Olof Melander! Expect the unexpected: new work, improv, and a selection from Moor Mother’s rich oeuvre.
Opening: James McClure & João Guerra
Vocalist and poet Camae Ayewa aka Moor Mother describes her music as “low fi/dark rap/blk girl blues/witch rap/coffee shop riot gurl songs/black ghost songs”. Her vast discography meanders adventurously between jazz, hip hop, and noise, with records under her own name, under the moniker 700 Bliss (with DJ Haram), or in collaborations with Irreversible Entanglements, the avant-metal band SUMAC, and many more.
“Moor Mother might be the most radical Afrofuturist artist to emerge for years” – The Wire
https://moormother.bandcamp.com/
Recently, Moor Mother has moved toward a more melodic and song-oriented approach, while still blending spoken word, experimental jazz, electronics, and radical poetry. Her album Jazz Codes (2023) draws from her poetry project and pays tribute to jazz visionaries such as Woody Shaw and Mary Lou Williams, combining layered vocals, atmospheric production, and free-form improvisation in collaboration with Swedish producer Olof Melander. On her latest full length album The Great Bailout (2024), she expands this cinematic and haunting sound into a powerful meditation on colonial history, displacement, and collective memory, moving between tenderness, noise, jazz abstraction, and poetic storytelling.
Internationally renowned trumpeter Aquiles Navarro — also her bandmate in Irreversible Entanglements and multi-faceted artist in his own right— contributed to Jazz Codes as well as Circuit City and Analog Fluids Of Sonic Black Holes, and later collaborated with Melander on the album Tangles (2024).
Moor Mother – "DEATH BY LONGITUDE"This event is present by Space is the Place
Since its founding in 2017, SITP has organized improvised music concerts that encourage creativity across genres and disciplines. Over the years, it has expanded through collaborations with venues and festivals in the Netherlands and abroad, including BIMHUIS, Paradiso, and WORM. -

Los Sara Fontan
Nell’antica Grecia la musica strumentale incuteva timore per la sua capacità di spingere l’ascoltatore verso voli senza freni né controllo della fantasia. Aggrappandosi a questa massima, Los Sara Fontan scelgono di esplorare l’irrazionale, di non usare la parola e di rompere con le forme classiche di produzione e riproduzione.
Il violino classico e contemporaneo di Sara Fontán, unito all’energia poliritmica di Edi Pou, dà vita a Los Sara Fontan. Hanno sviluppato una parte della loro carriera artistica senza incidere dischi, per scelta militante, fuggendo dalle routine produttive dell’industria musicale. Il loro terreno è il live: sempre fisico, appassionato, punk, in costante trasformazione e permeabile all’ambiente.
Insieme sono capaci di creare oasi minimaliste, garage pieni di rumore e odore d’olio, spiagge dove il tempo si dilata, muri sonori invalicabili, basi per il rapper che vive dentro di te, precipizi romantici, acrobazie subacquee, discoteche edoniste, giardini di fiori profumati… concedendo allo spettatore la libertà di dare libero sfogo alla propria immaginazione.
Sara utilizza il violino e la tastiera come punto di partenza, applicando processi elettroacustici per ottenere una palette sonora varia e invocare molteplici nature. Al suo fianco, Edi Pou (metà dei ZA!, punto di riferimento dell’underground europeo) raccoglie la sfida di trasformare la percussione in melodia e di tendere la dinamica dal minuscolo all’epico, rompendo con i modelli occidentali della batteria classica.
La loro musica è open source. Il prolifico duo compone con altri artisti e ricompone le proprie creazioni per aprirle a pratiche collettive e interdisciplinari.
Esibizioni in duo
Hanno girato in Spagna, Portogallo, Francia, Finlandia, Svizzera, Regno Unito, Polonia, Italia e Germania, partecipando a festival come Eurosonic, ArcTangent, Fusion Festival, One Of A Million, BAM, AMFest, Norpas, Eufònic, Alhambra Jazz e a numerosi templi della cultura Do It Yourself.

Insieme sono capaci di creare oasi minimaliste, garage pieni di rumore e odore d’olio, spiagge dove il tempo si dilata, muri sonori invalicabili, basi per il rapper che vive dentro di te, precipizi romantici, acrobazie subacquee, discoteche edoniste, giardini di fiori profumati… concedendo allo spettatore la libertà di dare libero sfogo alla propria immaginazione.
Sara utilizza il violino e la tastiera come punto di partenza, applicando processi elettroacustici per ottenere una palette sonora varia e invocare molteplici nature. Al suo fianco, Edi Pou (metà dei ZA!, punto di riferimento dell’underground europeo) raccoglie la sfida di trasformare la percussione in melodia e di tendere la dinamica dal minuscolo all’epico, rompendo con i modelli occidentali della batteria classica.
La loro musica è open source. Il prolifico duo compone con altri artisti e ricompone le proprie creazioni per aprirle a pratiche collettive e interdisciplinari.
Esibizioni in duo
Hanno girato in Spagna, Portogallo, Francia, Finlandia, Svizzera, Regno Unito, Polonia, Italia e Germania, partecipando a festival come Eurosonic, ArcTangent, Fusion Festival, One Of A Million, BAM, AMFest, Norpas, Eufònic, Alhambra Jazz e a numerosi templi della cultura Do It Yourself.

When I'm 68 I wonder if I'll have lost interest in music completely or if will listen to 350+ new experimental underground releases a year and get enthusiastic about every single one of them, as #ThurstonMoore does: https://substack.com/home/post/p-182787111

Drť (SK) + Donikąd + Szwindel | free jazz, avant rock, alt/indie rock grunge punk | koncert w Postoju, 23.01.2026, 20:00, 30 PLN
https://event.nemo.earth/event/drt-sk-donikad-or-free-jazz-avant-rock-altindie-rock
Muzyczny start nowego roku w postoju, już 4 razem, zaczynamy od wielkiego słowackiego wpierdolu feministyczno math rockowo free jazowo popierdolonego, czyli DRT. Do tego lokalne "donikąd" oraz "szwindel", czyli kolejne nowe wrocławskie zespoły które rosną szybciej niż inflacja, wpadajcie zobaczyć bo zaraz nam wyjdą z undengroundu, a nie ma lepszej piwnicy niż nasz salon, tak nam się przynajmniej wydaje.
Drť (free jazz, avant rock | Słowacja)
Zespół Drť powstał w 2019 roku z inicjatywy Miroslava Tótha. Od tego czasu wydał cztery albumy studyjne. Na żywo grupa wystąpi w nowym składzie, prezentując materiał z aktualnej płyty Drôtenky (Lowbottomy Records) – intensywny, skondensowany dźwięk czteroosobowego zespołu. Obok wokalu Zuzany Husárovej i barytonowego saksofonu Miroslava Tótha usłyszymy Jana Faixa na klawiszach oraz perkusistę Mariána Leskovskiego, znanego również z zespołu Shibuya Motors. Album Drôtenky wykorzystuje motyw błędnych ogników – świateł pojawiających się w ludowych przesądach, które nocą wabią ludzi na bagna – jako metaforę mierzenia się z kłamcami i manipulatorami:
„Kłamcy potrafią patrzeć prosto w oczy – tak długo, aż oszukany spuści wzrok, aż odwróci spojrzenie”.
https://drtband.bandcamp.com/album/ep-o-i-bez-bielok
Donikąd (alt rock, indie rock | Wrocław)
Donikąd to wrocławska grupa rockowa łącząca agresywne gitarowe riffy z chwytliwymi melodiami. Ich brzmienie czerpie zarówno z alternatywnego rocka lat 90., jak i ze współczesnego indie rocka. Teksty zespołu opowiadają o zmaganiach z trudnościami, które stawia życie, inni ludzie, a czasem my sami. W lipcu 2025 roku ukazała się ich debiutancka EP-ka „Rozmowy o Godzinie Trzeciej”.

Szwindel (punk, grunge | Wrocław)
To nowa, wrocławska formacja, która zaskoczyła energicznym połączeniem grunguu i punku. Grają prawdziwe tsunami dźwięku oraz emocji, które na pewno porwie was w POGO! Warto dodać, że swoją demówkę nagrali mikrofalą, co na pewno ich wyróżnia, no to przyjdź na ten koncert i dołącz do takich pasjonatów.

Musical start of the New Year in Postoj, already 4th times together, we start with the great Slovak feminist math rock free jazz - DRT. In addition, the local "donikąd", the new Wrocław's band that is growing faster than inflation, come and see because they are about to leave the underground in a moment, and there is no better basement than our living room, at least it seems to us.
Drt (free jazz, avant rock | Slovakia)
The Drť team was founded in 2019 on the initiative of Miroslav Tóth. He has since released four studio albums. The group will perform live in a new line – up, presenting material from the current album Drôtenky (Lowbottomy Records) - the intense, condensed sound of a four-piece band. Alongside the vocals of Zuzana Husárová and the baritone saxophone of Miroslav Tóth, we will hear Jan Faix on keyboards and the drummer Marián Leskovski, also known from the band Shibuya Motors. Drôtenky's Album uses the theme of false lights – lights appearing in folk superstitions that lure people to the swamp at night – as a metaphor for confronting liars and manipulators: "Liars can look straight into the eyes – as long as the deceived look down, until he looks away."
https://drtband.bandcamp.com/album/ep-o-i-bez-bielokDonikąd (alt rock, indie rock | Wroclaw)
It is a rock band from Wrocław, combining aggressive guitar riffs with catchy melodies. Their sound draws both from the alternative rock of the 90s. as in modern indie rock. The band's lyrics tell about the struggles of life, other people, and sometimes ourselves. In July 2025, they released their debut EP "conversations at three o'clock".

New #review today: "#Spinifex is an #AvantJazz group based in Amsterdam, though its members come from various countries. Led by artistic director and chief composer #TobiasKlein on alto sax, the membership has changed somewhat over the years. Undrilling the Hole features seven energetic tracks of unpredictable music that ranges between tightly coordinated arrangements and free-blowing chaos." #ExposeOnline #FreeJazz #PunkJazz http://expose.org/index.php/articles/display/spinifex-undrilling-the-hole-maxximus-2.html
