    The Indian American jazz pianist’s first release since his Grammy-nominated Historicity reached the top of the charts in 2009 hits stores and on line retailers with a crush of new praise. Add this writer to that number. When I first listened to Accelerando, its denseness and the deeply complicit interplay between Iyer, his bassist Stephen [...]

  • Vijay Iyer Trio - Accelerando
    by Dan Ruccia Jazz records aren't supposed to send you frantically hunting for deep cuts you've never heard of. The Bad Plus or Brad Mehldau never do that; they perform Rush's Tom Sawyer, Bowie's Life on Mars, any number of Radiohead tunes, or Nirvana's Lithium, say. When I started listening to this...

  • Vijay Iyer Trio – Accelerando
    Jazz hasn’t been getting enough attention lately. Yes, riffs and loops are cut into hip-hop and house. Straddling the worlds of electronica and jazz are excellent musicians like Flying Lotus, Thundercat, Bonobo, and RJD2. But unadulterated jazz rarely noses its way into the mainstream. Especially after listening to contemporary jazz troupes like the Vijay Iyer [...]

  • Vijay Iyer Trio – Accelerando (2012)
    After a diversion into a piano alone venture Solo (2010), Vijay Iyer returns to his trio for Accelerando. While we might once again have a Iyer record with Stephan Crump (bass) and Marcus Gilmore (drums), Iyer isn’t staying put in pursuing musical strategies. Accelerando marks a progression from that excellent 2010 trio date Historicity. Like the incisive, articulate and even-tempered [...]

    Link: http://dosahunt.tumblr.com/ I just watched this trailer for 'Dosa Hunt', and thought it was going to be one of those weird music videos where an artist like M.I.A./ Diplo /etc exploits a foreign ethnic culture just 2 have an 'angle' for an album's 'sound.' It turned out to be some sort of documentary where some relevant ethnic alt celebs went on some search for some sort of bread. I don't really know what Dosa is, I've only heard of 'naan' and 'pita' and 'hot pocket' bread. Also Panera has chill bread. Not ...

    Accelerando , the Vijay Iyer Trio ’s latest album, is now confirmed for a 5 March release in the UK on CD and vinyl. The follow up to the widely acclaimed Historicity the album release comes ahead of UK dates in May, the first by the US-based trio in nearly two years. The material on Accelerando steers an epic course from Ellington, through 1970s funk and disco, to the avant garde, and on to contemporary psychedelic-electronica navigated by Iyer’s distinctive post-MBASE filter that also draws in five of the pianist's original compositions. Iyer, 40, who this year released Tirtha ...
