Chicago guitarist Fareed Haque–the son of a Pakistani father and a Chilean mother–has explored fusions of jazz, pop, and funk. But on his forthcoming album Macedonian Blues (Proteus Entertainment) he and Goran Ivanovic, a classically trained Croatian guitarist who now lives in Naperville, transcribe a series of Macedonian folk tunes, interpreting them with a mix of jazzy sonorities, flamenco fire, and classical detail. I’m hoping that live the duo will transcend the album’s rather polite feel.

A founding member of the female DJ crew Superjane, Lady D has been a scene fixture for the last five years. On last year’s mix CD, Naked Kaleidoscope (Afterhours/Strictly Hype), she favors a chilled-out, soul-soaked strain of Chicago house.
