The music is what I usually refer to as post-contemporary jazz, but van Trikt preferred the terms “post-modern jazz and improvised music.” Sadly, this is the only tape I made of the show during one of my visits home from school, but I played the heck out of it for years afterwards.

Artists featured include the James Carter Quartet, Cecil Taylor, Cassandra Wilson, spoken word artist Daz (from the group Daz Tempo, Black Rock Coalition member, and co-owner of Green Skunk Records), Muhal Richard Abrams, and plenty more.

Enjoy.
