If you a wearing a Roel Funcken Balaklavskiy Prospex’ t-shirt right now! Picture: my very own in all senses of the word.
I Went Looking For Avishai Cohen?
And I found two? The one I was looking for is a bassist and the other a trumpeter. I mean how strange is that? 24 hours ago I did not know anything about either of their existence. And yet no more than two hours ago I got to know that there are two… “Will the… Continue reading I Went Looking For Avishai Cohen?

A part of one day? 15:00 – 20:00? A part of one day for a friend or the brotherhood? Not even that part of one day. That is… a great party. Not even that part of one day. That is so depressing.

What You Get For Being Young
Is it the referee, reference or the relevance that stirs my soul? I don’t know. I wish that I would have reversed the listening order tonight. No, that is not true. I would have been totally fu***d up, no matter how the tables were turned. Exceptionally good music. Jazz references? Ambience? Suzanne Kraft? Naturally, it… Continue reading What You Get For Being Young
Pessimist
I am sorry, you were saying? The album is called “Pessimist” by “Pessimist” (that is really amusing by the way) released on the Blacker Than Black label. Do you have questions? Good. I have some too.

The music being produced now is very far from what the general public will ever hear. They would understand… Continue reading Unbalance
