The either/OAR series of and/OAR continues to take unexpected twists
and turns while slowly but surely unveiling the intended perimeter of it's
conceptual focus - this time a magic realism trip via the world of
atmospheric avant-jazz. Distare Sonanti is the second album by the highly
synergistic Di Domenico / Henriksen / Yamamoto trio whose first CD titled
"Clinamen" was released in 2010 by the Off label based in Belgium. Now,
in 2012 and/OAR is very pleased and honored to present this second
masterwork which should prove to be an absolutely essential addition to
the CD collection of not only the followers of all three artist's work, but
also many fans of European jazz.
Giovanni Di Domenico was born in Rome, Italy and has performed all over
the world in a wide variety of contexts and musical genres from modern
jazz to free improvisation and experimental pop. He has also had the
chance to play with some of the most talented musicians around, including
Arve Henriksen, Akira Sakata, Jim O'Rourke, Chris Corsano, Nate Wooley,
Darin Gray, Tetuzi Akiyama, Fred Lomberg-Holm, Tatsuya Nakamura,
Toshimaru Nakamura and Sanne Van Hek, just to name a few. He has
released a number of albums under his name and in collaboration with
others.
Arve Henriksen was born in Norway and by now is pretty well known in jazz
circles (especially in the realms of ECM and Rune Grammofon) and has
also been active with various other genres of music of which are often hard
to classify. Arve has collaborated with quite a few musicians over the
years, with well over 100 albums to his credit. Some of the groups and
artists Arve has collaborated with include David Sylvian, Supersilent, Food,
Motorpsycho, Jon Balke (and the Magnetic North Orchestra), Edward
Vesala, Jon Christensen, Nils Petter Molvær, Arild Andersen, Dhafer
Youssef, Hope Sanduval, Terje Isungset and many more.
Tatsuhisa Yamamoto was born in Yamaguchi, Japan and is a pure
acoustic drummer who plays primarily improvised music. Tatsuhisa has
collaborated with artists such as Otomo Yoshihide, Jim O'Rourke, Sachiko
M, Seiichi Yamamoto (ex Boredoms), Keiji Haino, Makoto Kawabata (Acid
Mothers Temple), Kahimi Karie, Yoshio Machida and Phew among others.
Recently Tatsuhisa has been performing regularly with Jim O'Rourke, who
started to play music again after seeing Tatsuhisa playing live.

JUST OUTSIDE (JANUARY 2013)
Di Domenico (piano, Fender Rhodes, synths, electronics, editing),
Henrikesn (trumpets, electronics), Yamamoto (drums, percussion). Leaps
into a post-60s Miles thing from the get go and attractively so, with
Henriksen (from Supersilent) veering toward a much more Jon Hassell-like
approach. It's almost unfair using a Fender Rhodes--those of us of a
certain age are cast directly back to the glory days of Corea and Jarrett
with Miles. The trio play so solidly and impart just enough of a new spin on
things that they manage to pull off what could easily have been a
pastiche. Listeners familiar with and enamored of that tract between Miles
of that period and Fourth World-era Hassell will find much to enjoy here.
And that includes me. (Brian Olewnick)
