Flatbed Buggy

So much fun and joy and swing, and the instrumentation allows for some super-fresh sounds as well as some old-timey goodness. And simply great tunes too! Giles

Fabliaux
by Dave Douglas & Monash Art Ensemble

supported by 4 fans who also own “Homing Patterns”

This is a great record! It reminds me a little of Gunther Schuller's 'Third Wave' experiments. I admire Dave for his consistent involvement in moving the music forward ...as complex, involving and articulate as anything he has done. John Cratchley

Desertion
by Nick Millevoi

"Desertion and the Arsonist's Match" has one of the the most memorable, creative guitar solos I've heard in ages. Can listen to it on an infinite loop. Marco Esquandolas

Touch My Beloved's Thought
by Greg Ward

supported by 4 fans who also own “Homing Patterns”

Released on Dave Douglas' influential Greenleaf Music...DD has exemplary antenna! Ascendent ensemble playing. This is a great listen...intrinsically linked to Mingus' 'The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady', listen separately or in conjunction but embrace both. Think of them as call and response, perhaps.
