One thought on “Martin Küchen | Jon Rune Strøm | Tollef Østvang | Melted Snow | No Business Records

  1. Not Quite All Included or Some Included might be suitable names for the trio of Swedish saxophonist Martin Küchen, and Norwegian bassist Jon Rune Strøm and drummer Tollef Østvang. Reason being that the repertoire on Melted Snow partially replicates that on Satan in Plain Clothes (Clean Feed, 2015) by All Included. Unsurprisingly the seven cuts on this limited edition LP boast the same mixture of boisterous free jazz and touching minor key tunes, with if anything even looser arrangements. Typically Küchen’s raw, emotion drenched tenor saxophone rails against roiling bass and drums in an outstanding recital.
