أحمد [Ahmed] « Play Monk » (France, Sweden, UK)

أحمد [Ahmed] has made some of the most thrilling music of the last decade, powerfully propulsive group improvisations animating the music and activating the philosophy of an unsung master, Ahmed Abdul-Malik. On their new record, Play Monk –– and at FIMAV –– they turn to material by Abdul-Malik’s one-time employer, the incomparable Thelonious Monk.
