Mark Segger: Lift Off
ByAlong with some fragmented

Ornette Coleman
saxophone, alto1930 - 2015
The band's tensely articulated mosaics of sound are often woven into a whole in animated fashion. Otherwise, variety is a key factor. For example, on "One Note" the artists engage minimalism amid atmospherics with elongated notes and rests in between, contrasted by the soloists' mild call and response activities and fluctuating extended (one note) lines. In a nutshell, Segger is a highly musical drummer and may teach us progressive jazz aficionados a few tricks as the band often gets to the point in whirlwind fashion with the utmost precision and gusto.
