Mellow, mighty groover of a return from Tortoise, with a sting in the tail - a band who erase all notions of genre. A word in your shell-like: there's nothing off the shelf about what they do

On the After the Last Sky title track new from Anouar Brahem, cellist Anja Lechner explores some pitch black, tonal dimensions wrapped within a poetically inspired theme of displacement.

''Though the ear choose not to hear, In the heart I echo, clear: Savage power I exercise, Transformed I am, to mortal eyes'' (Goethe). Fierce, unbridled passion from the Michael Wollny trio in a miracle making folded together extended meditational full of Zärtlichkeit.

From The Gleaming World (577 Records) dramatic sax, free-ish bass lines and a rain of rhythm from Northern Irish drummer Stephen Davis.
