Aspelin/Looney/Smith/Walter
This quartet was originally put together to explore the sonic  
possibilities associated with electronic/amplified instruments and  
intense percussion played at fast tempos and high volume levels.   
However, after the first few notes were played together as a unit,  
the group immediately showed a readiness and determination to examine  
texture, rhythm, and melody across dynamic and tempo ranges.  The  
result is a unique sound that puts a fresh perspective on the  
traditional piano/guitar/bass/drums quartet, touching on elements of  
improvisation’s past while keeping the sound squarely footed in the  
wealth of possibilities available today.
