In early December the folks behind Uncanned Music—which over the last few years has programmed jazz and improvised music concerts and DJ sets at loads of venues around town, including the Bedford, Trencherman, Plein Air Cafe, Bar DeVille, and Sportsman’s Club, among others—will release Alternate Moon Cycles by cornetist Rob Mazurek, the first title on its newly formed International Anthem label. The show promoters have been actively recording most of the concerts they’ve presented recently, and now they’re putting that music out there. The label’s second release, due early next year (January 20, to be precise), is In the Moment by drummer Makaya McCraven, a 19-track album culled from almost 48 hours of material recorded as part of a weekly residence at the Bedford.
