Andrew Hill R.I.P

* My new favourite jazz mp3blog called Destination Out. They’ve recently done a huge retrospective called the Best of 90’s Jazz with lists from jazz afficionados. A wealth of knowledge found here if you’re into jazz. Also a testimonial anectode by Vijay Iyer for the late Andrew Hill (who died from lung cancer in April but in May became the first person ever to receive a posthumous honorary doctorate from Berklee College of Music. ) and a 1 hour good quality streaming live concert from his last concert at Trinity Church. Instant add to blogroll!.

* 3 hours of Drexciya special show on Bleep 43, a terrific podcast. Download and listen to other shows as well. Thanks to Yhancik’s LJ.

* Eclectic Spanish ska-punk-polka clarinet band Polka Madre y La Comezon on either/or. Listen to Funeral del tio Perverso after 1:30 a cover of Brahms’ Hungarian Dance No. 5, one of the best songs ever!.

* Needing to be has a track from the recent Fennesz / Sakamoto collaboration, and one from clarinettist Don Byron.

* Cinematic Hiphop compilation from Bricolage Fantasy incl. My Brightest Diamond & Socalled & Macromantics.

* Exclusive high quality live videos from Low, Akron / Family / Tapes’n'Tapes on Schedule Two.

Otemoyan performed by The Sakura Ensemble

* I’ve also found a way to incorporate youtube to undomondo without clogging up the RSS feed. That’s by using the tumblr service. Now the button on top (or this one) that appropriately says youtube takes you too a page with nothing but videos. You can add it to your readers or just remember to click once in a while because I update it almost daily now with videos found on youtube.

Latest additions : world renowned classical violinist Itzhak Perlman plays Klezmer , pianist Keith Jarrett on Improvisation, a b&w Nurse With Wound video, Fennesz “Caecilia”, Fred Firth & Camel Zekri improvising, Sunburned hand of the man – Live and a traditional Japanese dance version of Otemoyan which was covered by Andrew & Emiko.
