Gone is written music, but the album does not lack structure and
coherence. Credit must be shared equally here. Ra, a member of Sun Ra's
Arkestra in the 1980s and more recently a key collaborator with Chicago
saxophonist Dave Rempis, acts as both an accelerant and a governor for the
trio. Håker Flaten, the globetrotting bassist—who can be heard in Atomic, The
Rempis Percussion Quartet, Icepick, and too many other ensembles to name—shares
the leader role with inspired soloing. His pulled bass notes muscle up
"Recollection" as Mazzarella does his best Ornette Coleman alto emulation
before sitting out to allow the bass and drums to converse. "Firekeepers" opens
with a nod to John Coltrane's Love Supreme with Ra's mallet work following that
of Elvin Jones, before veering into a blues, and ramping to intensity. To say
Ra, Håker Flaten, or Mazzarella "sound like X" is doing each of them a
disservice. Each musician—no, the trio as a unit—has created a compelling
sound, built upon co-operative improvisation.
