This is music by four strong individual players with room for eruptive solo-parts, but always held together by intense communication and beautiful interwoven melodies.

The quartet's second album A History of Nothing (Trost records/TR170) got a huge number of excited reviews: A superb quartet outing.

The music is all improvised, but it's firmly rooted in jazz, with superb interaction between all of the players, both on ripping, high-velocity blowouts and more delicate forays.

(Peter Margasak, Chicago Reader) Freedom is clearly a responsibility as well as a joy, and it's emphasized here by the group's shared commitment: each musician is constantly working in two directions, stretching further and creating cohesion.

The music is improvised with such an ear to complementary detail that it's literally being collectively composed.

(Stuart Broomer, Free Jazz Collective) Together, this quartet is dynamite. It's exciting to hear a European musician along with three Americans, and notice that they communicate so well.

(Jan Granlie, Salt Peanuts) Recorded by Klaus Hedegaard Nielsen at Jazzhouse, Copenhagen, March 2nd, 2017.

Mixed by Joaquim Monte and Rodrigo Amado, CD Master by Simon Wadsworth / LP Master by Martin Siewert
