Description
We may regret not having been around when some of our idols were writing the pages that have now become foundations of the music we love. There is not much we can do about that, other than fantasizing about those times and those musicians. What we can do however is feeling lucky to live at a time when there is a number of modern masters in action. One of them is trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire [pictured], for whom 2023 was a remarkable year. Here we focus on the wide range of releases he has worked on, as well as on those of other adventurous musicians.
The playlist also features ; Michael Yezerski; Cautious Clay; Dhafer Youssef; Bill Frisell, Herlin Riley; ladyybirdd; Enji; Joseph Branciforte, Theo Bleckmann [from "Brickdrop Mashup" onwards].
