"An elegant trio session featuring Sicilian saxophone legend Gianni Gebbia, teamed up with Rituel percussionist Garth Powell and Oakland bassist Damon Smith. This is not your typical horn/rhythm section session. Each player expands the sound of the instrument in ways that defy description -- and make it difficult for the listener to tell who's playing what."

"His 2nd solo recording...focuses on new ways of playing the drum set using drumsticks & mallets as well as files, battery powered motors, and motorized kitchen implements...this is percussion music that bubbles, grinds and swells like nature intended. For fans of Zappa's 'Black Page' or Varese's 'Ionization.'"
