Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

"In this four-part musikbook series by Nandor Nevai, each hardcover book combines an intensely curated musical experience with an autobiographical narrative, blending sound, text, and imagery to offer an immersive look into the evolution of unique sub-genres. Each musikbook includes four CDs-nearly five hours of well mastered music per set-encompassing diverse musical idioms: folk, industrial, jazz, and hard rock, each in its own book. With text that combines personal storytelling and expansive liner notes, Nevai's writing parallels the thematic focus of each book's music, allowing listeners to experience a sweeping journey through four distinct musical landscapes. Bound like CDs yet resembling a book with a spine, the series is accessible as both individual volumes and a unified collection of music and narrative. Beyond entertainment, Nevai's work resonates as a therapeutic offering for individuals dealing with PTSD, celebrating the resilience and breadth of United States musical culture."

(Psykomanteum)

An unusual quintet of prominent New York improvisers--Peter Evans on trumpet, Tim Dahl on bass violin, Matt Nelson on tenor saxophone, and Ron Stabinsky on bass--performing Nandor Nevai's compositions: two Quintets and the two part "Sap Gloves"--Nevai performing on tenor sax, voice and conducting, blurring modern improv, chamber jazz and bizarre spoken word moments; outstanding and unsettling.

NORTH ov GOD
(Psykomanteum)

An album of ecstatic noise improv with an experimental edge from the trio of Ulrich Krieger on tenor saxophone & contrabass clarinet, Nandor Nevai on "throats" & drums, and Wolcott on oscillator & electronics, viciously assertive music in seven track of mostly succinct statements composed or conceived by each of the band members; cathartic.

No Mor Musik
No Mor Musik
(ugEXPLODE)

This puzzling display of punk/jazz surrealism is masterminded by Nondor Nevai on drums and vocals, featuring Weasel Walter on bass and legendary journeyman Kenny Millions (aka Keshavan Maslak) on guitar and reeds, a sort of unholy fusion between extreme metal, bludgeoning noise rock, free jazz, black humor and true stream-of-consciousness improvisation.

Nevai, Nandor
The Wooden Machine Music / 2001
(ugEXPLODE)

Mark Mothersbaugh records five compositions for the Player Piano Forte composed by Nandor Nevai, each an impossible performance for a human being, with each piece named for the number of hands theoretically performing, from "1 Hand" to "5 Hands", driving the Pianoforte into extreme territory of rapidity and complexity in a fascinating set of compositions.

Energetic trio interplay from saxophonist James McKain with Damon Smith and Weasel Walter, recorded in Collinsville, Illinois, where taut lines, volatile textures, and razor-cut dynamics sketch "free jazz by way of the European tradition," six concise pieces whose titles nod to Thomas Bernhard and whose restless momentum — anchored by springy bass and splintered drums — turns spontaneity into vividly shaped form.
