Daniel Humair - Bruno Chevillon - Marc Ducret - Ellery Eskelin: Liberte Surveillee
By Bassist Bruno Chevillon and Humair provide the soloists with all the ammo they need for a set brimming with dangerously explosive improvisational sequences and maddening, free-bop style excursions. Humair generally throttles his associate’s permutations with swiftly organized polyrhythmic jaunts, consisting of swarming fills and exacting cymbal work. Whereas Ducret injects his signature style electric guitar manipulations into the mix, as he melds wily lines with shrewd employment of volume control and EFX. However, the guitarist also plucks nimble jazz progressions amid Eskelin’s blustery choruses and complexly woven passages. The band tones it down a notch or two on the piece titled “Amalgame” – where Eskelin’s soulful lyricism counteracts Ducret’s subtle dynamics. In some respects, this recording represents a modernist’s dream band. Enjoy! (Passionately recommended)
