Dave Rempis

• DIGIPACK EDITION

An unchanged line up on the eighth release from saxophonist Dave Rempis' Percussion Quartet signals a generous helping of rowdy energy and inspired oratory. As the name implies, the drums loom large with two distinctive practitioners in Tim Daisy on the left and Frank Rosaly on the right well separated in the mix (from information supplied by Rempis, not on the sleeve), fuelling the leader's stratospheric flights. Bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten, well-known as one third of The Thing and a fixture since his relocation Stateside, completes the roster. They prove in fearsome form over three collective cuts, the shortest clocking in at just short of the eight minute mark, the longest over half an hour.

PERSONNEL:

• Dave Rempis - alto, tenor and baritone sax
• Ingebrigt Håker Flaten - electric and acoustic bass
