Peeter Uuskyla

Swedish drummer Peeter Uuskyla performs all alone on this double-LP. The opening track ”The Dream” features two takes of drumkit mixed with one take of his piano-playing. The triptych ”Nerves I-III” presents Peeter Uuskyla´s everyday rituals as a drumkit-concerto. His primal, natural, basic, archaic music is illustrated by Johannes Brander´s cover art.

Peeter Uuskyla has played many years with legendary saxophonist Bengt Frippe Nordströms group in Sweden. He has worked and toured internationally with US-pianist Cecil Taylor, bassists Barre Phillips and Peter Kowald, Polish altosax Mikolaj Trzaska, altosax/flute-player Biggi Vinkeloe. Since last year he collaborates in trio with Biggi Vinkeloe and French trombonist Francois Lemonnier, their album ¨Space Way Messenger¨ is released by Gérard Terronès French label Futura/Marge. Peeter Uuskyla has worked, recorded and toured with Peter Brötzmann, the father of European freejazz, for the past 15+ years. LP comes in heavy gatefold cover.
