#Listening to RED Trio's debut CD on Clean Feed



Red is an extreme tone, the chromatic colour resembling the hue of blood. Extreme, because our eyes capture red on the longest wavelengths of light discernible by the human vision. For longer wavelengths we are below red and our naked eyes are unable to see anything.
The music played by the portuguese RED trio can have this dual behavior. Organic, like the vital fluid running on our veins, it can supply substance for a wide range of sensations. At the same time it's extremely free. Free improvisation, as free music and all art forms should be. Free ideas, free speech. From near silence to full noise, a wide spectrum of aural emotions.

Rodrigo Pinheiro (piano), Hernani Faustino (double bass), Gabriel Ferrandini (drums) will play live at Jazz em Agosto festival, next Saturday 14th of August.

RED Trio's debut CD is out now on Clean Feed.

Iain McKell, "New Gypsies"

"Historically despised the new Gypsies are there by choice, not heritage. Unrelated to the Roma, the movement began in 1986 when a group of Post-Punk Anti-Thatcher protesters headed out of London into the English countryside. McKell followed these New Age Travellers to the West Country and over the years he watched them become a hybrid tribe - the new gypsies - present-day rural anarchists, living the subversive lifestyle in elaborately decorated horse-drawn caravans."

New Order - Video 5-8-6 [Extended 22:23 version]

“Video 5 8 6” is a song originally composed as “pap” (as Tony Wilson put it) for the opening night of the Haçienda on May 21, 1982. Parts of this pearl would become the basis for the Power, Corruption & Lies tracks “5 8 6” and “Ultraviolence”, as well as the associated 12-inch single “Blue Monday”.
