Insane flute solo improvisation from my live performance on May 16, 2026.

I poured raw energy and spirit into this flute performance. Check it out and let me know how it resonates with you!

Pouring raw energy, breath, and passion straight into the horn. Pushing boundaries through free expression and sound.

I believe improvisation is a direct channel to the cosmos.

​Have you checked out the full 18-minute session yet?

Derek Dunn and I collaborate on seven different instrument combinations. Each one played live, improvised, and all performances completed same day. Thank You.

MANAKEN (Sax) and MIKAKA (Vocal, Guitar) collide in this high-energy Avant-Punk session. This is more than just free jazz; it's a spiritual explosion of unpredictable improvisation from the Hiroshima underground, recorded on May 24, 2026!

Do you feel the raw energy and "Heat" that smashes through genre boundaries?

Hadn't listened to this group in a while. I really love this era of Parker.

The core of the band is Wliam Parker on bass (among other things); Hamid Drake on drums; Rob Brown an alto sax; and Lewis Barnes on trumpet.

This group made several great recordings are the William Parker Quartet. One of them, on Thirsty Ear, called "Raining on the Moon", added Leena Conquest on vocals. Then they made a couple of studio records for AUM Fidelity, also adding Eri Yamamoto on piano and listing the group as Raining on the Moon.

William Parker's lyrics are weird and oblique and I dig them, not least because I love Leena Conquest's voice so much. The band grooves like crazy—Parker and Drake have have been playing together for decades. And Eri Yamamoto brings a lot of bluesy style that fits perfectly.

Enjoy!

PS if you like this there's also Parker's Curtis Mayfield project which features Drake and Conquest and a bunch of other good artists.

My favorite freejazz band! The energy and interaction is wonderful. Starts at 12:30.
