Brass Monkey Brass Band: The Highest Good
Relentless drums, rumbling tuba, and wailing horns - this is New Orleans-style brass band for the 21st century. San Francisco's BMBB gives it that Bay Area twist with their covers (Zeppelin, Roger & Rapp), and top-notch writing and arranging.

Michael Lowenstern: Fade
The evolution of Lowenstern's "transparent-tecnnology" jazz, but this time the technology is, well, less transparent. This groove-rich, jazz-funk CD is less restrained, and full of unbelievable bass clarinet playing, lush textures and (in)human percussion
