Just like his contemporary (Kenny Wollesen), Tim Daisy is a very adept and fluid vibes player as well as a 'go to' drummer...
This album seems to dial into a soundspace somewhere between Ornette Coleman's late 60's trio and Eric Dolphy's 'Out To Lunch' ensemble...but Tim's compositions are very much his own and terrific they are too!
He doubles on drums and vibes,the bass is a constant driver and it is good to hear alto and bass clarinet deployed as well...special all round,in fact...

Thom Nguyên's textural drones don't sit static and heavy—instead, they unfurl and come alive over the course of this energizing new LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 27, 2023
The guitarists first solo album (like the actors first Hamlet) is a hoop that eventually has to be jumped through...and Mary Halvorson has finally risen to the challenge...a truly brilliant improviser and technician (I remember being knocked out by a performance she gave with Anthony Braxton in London),she has added layers of emotional and spiritual patina to those skills...the pre-release track here demonstrates all those qualities in spades...I see this release will include work by Noel Akchote (whose music plays a key part in my listening regime)...
So,until its release "I eat the air,promise crammed"...
Update! This album is now released and I can "count myself King of infinite riches"...this release catapults Mary Halvorson into a different league for me...wonderful,wonderful,wonderful! John Cratchley
