This set was recorded on our Jazz Services tour in the Vortex Jazz Club. All of the songs are totally improvised; they don't really have names.

Some nice comments:

"In The Vortex[...]is a valuable document [...]The spontaneity of group improvisation gives it a wonderful freshness..." Manchester Evening News

"Joined from time to time by trumpeter Alex Bonney, who slotted his alternately strident and flaring sound perfectly into the rich mix, Mwamba / Kane / Blackmore provided nearly two hours of absorbing, intriguing and at times downright exhilarating music." Chris Parker

Corey Mwamba, Dave Kane and Joshua Blackmore improvise collectively to create an open, living music.

The music is a free-wheeling, spontaneous mixture of styles.

How it all works is not always clear; but the process is always fascinating to hear, and the results can be truly moving. ... more

Songs for the New Folk
by Corey Mwamba

supported by 13 fans who also own “In the Vortex”

A teeming world of sound created with minimal means. With just a few instruments and some looping and processing, Corey Mwamba makes what feels like an epic travelogue through deep instrumental tones, circling themes and half-remembered melodies. Quite a journey that scratches the same itch for me as Natural Information Society or some of Don Cherry's pieces Derek Walmsley
