TIM BERNE & SCIENCE FRICTION FEAT. MARC DUCRET, CRAIG TABORN, TOM RAINEY
i.c.w. VPRO Radio
Tim Berne-alto sax, Marc Ducret-guitar, Craig Taborn-piano, Tom Rainey-drums
DIY jazz saxophonist Tim Berne released his first records on his own label and with his similarly melodic and avant-garde music he managed to win the hearts of the greats in the New York improvisational scene. Science Friction is recognized as his best group, because of the strong relationship between Berne, drummer Tom Rainey and guitarist Marc Ducret, who twists his unusual licks around the saxophonist’s melodies. Their strange sonic adventures offer continuous surprise.
