BALLISTER
“Low Level Stink”
Dave Rempis: Alto & Tenor Saxophone. Fred Lonberg-Holm: Cello & Electronics. Paal Nilssen-Love: Drums & Percussion. Recorded by Michael Huon at the Oorstof concert series, DE Studio, Antwerp March 22, 2015. Mixed and mastered by Dave Zuchowski, Chicago 2016. Filmed at the Oorstof concert series, DE Studio, Antwerp March 22, 2015
When Ballister – the fearsome trio of Dave Rempis (saxophones), Fred Lonberg-Holm (cello) and Paal Nilssen-Love (drums) – performed in Antwerp in March of 2015, they played the kind of music you know some musicians are capable of, but rarely get to experience. It was a magnificent concert that grabbed you by the collar and took you for an adrenaline-fueled ride. There were some quieter moments when you could enjoy the view and take a breath, but the impression that lingered on was one of fearless exploration, tremendous sway and primal joy. Free music in its superlative form: adventurous, cohesive and forceful as a hand grenade.

Kris VANDERSTRAETEN
“Trommels!”
Kris Vanderstraeten: Percussion, Snares & Objects. Recorded live at Zuiderpershuis for the Oorstof series, organized by Sound in Motion/Oorstof, 23 November 2014 Recorded, mixed and mastered by: Michael W. Huon, Brussels, 2016. LP edition of 300.
Percussionist Kris Vanderstraeten is one of the unsung heroes of Belgian free improvisation. Since the seventies, he has been experimenting with his unique set-up and different collaborations: the trio Sureau, a duo with Timo Van Luijk, several performances/recordings with young experimentalists. Trommels!, the second release by Dropa Disc, is also Vanderstraeten’s second solo album. It lures the listener into a universe without rules, a place where intuition and imagination decide what happens. Vanderstraeten does not play by the rules, he pushes them to the max. His drum kit isn’t just an instrument: it becomes a sound generator to explore the maximal potential of texture, dynamics and space.
