Relative Pitch Records

Full results for Relative Pitch Records >>

Relative Pitch Records is a labor of love from Kevin Reilly, a true fan of jazz and improvised music and a constant and critical presence on the New York downtown scene. After years of listening to concerts with open ears and an active mind, he started a label to document some of the underappreciate heroes of jazz and improvised music from around the world.

Alongside more familiar names like Matthew Shipp and Mary Halvorson, Relative Pitch puts an emphasis on musicians like Jim Hobbs, Connie Crothers, and Torsten Muller, who have been woefully underrecognized by the international community while building unassailable reputations in their own scenes. This is wonderful music that should be heard by everyone.
