Jazz / Modern Creative, Avant-Garde Jazz, Jazz Instrument, Saxophone Jazz
Recorded October 6, 2003 live at 3030 in Chicago
Dave Rempis (alto & tenor saxophone)
Jim Baker (piano)
Jason Roebke (bass)
Tim Daisy (drums)
After nearly four years of developing their voice as an improvising collective, Rempis (Triage, Vandermark Five, Thread Quintet, Territory Band) and his quartet make their recorded debut with this live set.
Following two years of regular work as a drummerless trio that explored quieter dynamics and the harmonic possibilties of their instruments, the group added drummer Tim Daisy and pianist Jim Baker�s synthesizer to the mix in 2002 to create a louder, more sound-oriented approach to creating longform free improvisations.
"A pristine, studio-quality set, the disc was recorded live at Chicago venue 3030... And it's one of the best recent examples of the powerful, incendiary sounds that mark the town as a prime center of forward-looking jazz."
---Peter Aaron, All About Jazz
"...one of the most promising artists on Chicago's improvised music scene." —
---Howard Reich, Chicago Tribune
"Saxophonist Dave Rempis is one of the busiest and most versatile jazz musicians in Chicago--a crucial member of groups as stylistically varied as the Vandermark 5, Triage, and the Thread Quintet. In the egalitarian quartet that bears his name, Rempis is less a leader than one of four idiosyncratic, authoritative personalities: the music on the group's recent debut, Out of Season (482 Music), sounds like an animated discussion among close friends. Rempis, drummer Tim Daisy, bassist Jason Roebke, and pianist-electronicist Jim Baker easily anticipate one another's moves: they've been playing together in this setting for a few years and have collaborated regularly in other combinations as well. Their improvisations ebb and flow powerfully, varying in density and urgency, and the musicians ingeniously reinforce evolving melodic lines, textures, and tone colors, sometimes dropping out one or two at a time to create a radically different center of gravity in the group."
---Peter Margasak, Chicago Reader
"Intense and coiled, the quartet meshes perfectly as sound is churned on the turnstiles of a whetted imagination... the players envision space and fill it with edgy, percolating textures and ruminations." --- Jerry D'Souza, All About Jazz
The music on Out of Season is a series of free improvisations with sounds that are often closer to Derek Bailey than to Ornette Coleman. There are some interesting moments, particularly during the first half of "Out of Season: Part I," where altoist Dave Rempis takes a strong solo, followed by a bit of Cecil Taylor-type piano from Jim Baker. However, much of this date features the quartet rambling through sound explorations that rarely develop or seem to go anywhere. "Interlude" and "Part II" are pretty dull and, although there is more fire during "Scuffle: Part I" (which has alto, synthesizer, bass, and drums interacting) and a couple spots for the lyrical side of Baker's piano, it all seems rather inconclusive and random, switching moods now and then for no discernible reason and never resolving anything. Therefore, Out of Season is primarily recommended to listeners with patient and tolerant ears. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
Dave Rempis
Decades Active: 1990,2000
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Avant-Garde Jazz, Modern Creative, Jazz Instrument, Saxophone Jazz
Critics have called Dave Rempis "one of the busiest and most versatile jazz musicians in Chicago" (Peter Margasak, Chicago Reader), "a ferocious virtuoso improviser" (Marc Meyers, AllAboutJazz.com) and "a young veteran of Chicago's experimental music scene who has been establishing a vividly recognizable voice of his own" (Howard Reich, Chicago Tribune). In addition to his well documented sideman work, he leads/co-leads groups such as Triage, The Engines, The Rempis/Daisy Duo, and The Dave Rempis Quartet. Founded in April 2004, The Rempis Percussion Quartet draws on a wide range of influences, including West African and Latin American rhythms, funk and free jazz, to create spontaneous music driven by unrestrained energy and a focus on ensemble motion. |
