Live @ Jedermann Kavezo, Budapest

Nice moment from the second set with Gyárfás Attila starting things off on the drums and we wind up with a really nice intense vibe toward the end.

Cox.Salmaso.Ajtai.Hock.Gyarfas. Live @ Jedermann Kavezo

This improvisation begins with me playing with split-tones and lip-produced harmonics, something that is unpredictable, but really cool in the right situations.

Live @ Jedermann Kavezo - Budapest

On a very hot afternoon in Budapest, three musicians got together for an impromptu session. With the hope that some nice moments might get caught, they recorded the session with a very simple handheld stereo recorder. What you hear on this recording is that pure, unadulterated sound. The only alterations made are those to prevent audio peaking. Everything else is just the raw sound of the instruments and the wonderful sound of the small black box theater room run by Lumen Kávézó. The musicians thank the owners and employees at Lumen for allowing them to use the room.

First Dance, his debut recording as a leader, featured John-Carlos’ original musical compositions and performances on electric bass, cedar flute, and pow-wow singing. Reviewer Thom Jurek noted that First Dance “feels like the late Jim Pepper’s Comin’ and Goin’” (http://tinyurl.com/82b8sod). 

John-Carlos has recorded on over eighteen albums and, in 2007, he won a GRAMMY® (Best New Age Album [Vocal or Instrumental]) as a member of the Paul Winter Consort for pow-wow and cedar flute songs contributed to "Crestone" (http://tinyurl.com/7dn58vj). His most recent release is "Cedar Flute Songs" (2023, Aerep Music), available from johncarlosperea.bandcamp.com.
