“A singularly creative voice whose unique aesthetic encompasses an array of idiosyncratic influences...a lyrical virtuoso with a commanding tone, whose expansive trumpet technique is saliently paralleled in his diverse writing.”

— Troy Collins, All About Jazz

The Daniel Rosenboom Quintet

"There are few jazz records that seem suitable for a pyrotechnics show, but trumpeter-composer-producer Daniel Rosenboom has accomplished such a feat with the debut of his new album...a wholly modern and frequently intimidating assault brimming with ferocity...The quintet has a grinding meticulousness...and the band is extremely tight in their execution of Rosenboom's ideas. This is not background music. It's a panoramic assault soaked in aggression and fuzz, flinging jagged machismo in every direction.The listener has two options: Put down what they're doing and soak it up, or run screaming for the hills."
— Sean J. O'Connell, DownBeat Magazine

Burning Ghosts

"Progressive anger can blast down some ugly walls, and Burning Ghosts' new recording shows how to do it without saying a word (or firing a shot)... This hard-jammin' quartet has jelled. Last year's debut raged with energy, but a span of seasoning and an appropriate alignment with John Zorn's avantist Tzadik label (Naked City, Secret Chiefs 3) have left the Ghosts focused and ready to dominate... If you're wishing for this decade's most potent way of declaring "We're not gonna take it," look no further." —MetalJazz

DR. MiNT

“[DR. MiNT] presents a wow factor on its fifth release… The band generates high-heat and integrates memorable melodies into several pieces, so it's not all about wielding a path of destruction…jazz that generates thrills a minute as some might say. Play it Loud!” —Glenn Astarita, All About Jazz
