...Chamberlin's playing encouraged the softer, subtler side of Catalano's music, the drummer crafting taut swing rhythm via thoroughly economical means. Chamberlin's less-is-more approach eminently suited the somewhat more controlled, more measured facets of Catalano's playing and showed a real sensitivity to jazz aesthetics... The soulfulness and blues-based phrase-making of Catalano's solos stood out, Chamberlin's delicate brush work enriching the music...

Jimmy Chamberlin News (Weekly Round-Up)
As promised - here's some stuff >
1. Frank Catalano says that the shows him and Jimmy played in Chicago earlier this year have been filmed and not only that but him Jimmy are going back to the studio (doink) to record even more new music.
2. As part of CIMMFEST - Jimmy will be appearing on a panel entitled "Live Streaming: From Consumption to Cache" on Saturday, May 3rd at 1:30 - 3:00PM (murica Time). One presumes the panel itself will be live-streamed somewhere, though I can't see mention of it on the festival page. Anyway, this is in addition to Chamberlin's performance in his new band "Mary Shelly" and their scoring of the classic Battleship Potempkin.
3. In contrast Jimmy gives Tyson Meade's track Dusty Come Up for Air some old school bombast. Chamberlin features on 3 of the forthcoming album's 10 tracks.
4. The day you have all been waiting for is here; Jimmy will be heading down to Vic's Drum Shop on the 23rd of April to celebrate REMO-DAY!
And lastly, following the disappointment that the most recent Smashing Pumpkins' announcement wasn't the triumphant return of Jimmy to his throne - in a series of rambling and vague posts, it has become apparent that Billy Corgan is using drum machines to write the parts for the next "Smashing Pumpkins" album. Here's hoping this 'new' (re: old) approach to demoing yields more interesting results than those of Oceania- "Hey Mike, try and play like Jimmy might ok?"

Jimmy Chamberlin NEWS
We actually have some actual news
1: Chamberlin will playing some more shows with Frank Catalano, in support of their forthcoming album
2: We asked Tyson Meade for an update on his album (feat Jimmy) and he delivered. Intriguingly, the most recent* addition to Belly Corgan's persona non grata list, Bongo-Master and 'studiodog' Kerry Brown, is producing the record;
*no official word that the current hiatus of the Smashing Pumpkins represents the addition to the list we're all hoping for. But here we remain eternally optimistic that it's indicative that Corgan has finally come to his senses and fired Byrne.From the Kickstarter update: "The good news is that I go to LA next week to finish mixing the record with my pal Kerry Brown who just worked on the upcoming Afghan Whigs record. The release date is April 22nd. Jimmy Chamberlain contributed three drum tracks to the record. To say that I got emotional when i heard the tracks he contributed is an understatement. They are GODLIKE! Hail all to Jimmy..."

Soundcloud Blunder
Turns out there's been a mix-up on Soundcloud. As well as adding a new feature 'Here's the Drop' today, a technical glitch has let to the mis-labelling of the recently uploaded Frank Catalano track 'Sona' as featuring the drumming of Jimmy Chamberlin.
It doesn't.
The track actually features the the skin caressing subtleties of Mike Byrne. Byrne, noted for his light touch and impeccable feel lightly propels the track to easy greatness.

Above - Mike listens back to his work on the track, whilst sugar-daddy Corgan looks on - unimpressed. |
