Mindful that NZ Music Month is currently in progress, Def Jim delivers a mixed set of local and international content, the former focused on experimental luminaries Trioglodyte, the late Neill Duncan with Devils Gate Outfit and the late Murray McNabb, and the latter including an outstanding new release from John Zorn's New Masada Quartet plus sundry musical gems past and present.
