Milo Fine, Elliot Fine, Davu Seru

2004 release ** "In 2003 Milo Fine joined forces with his father and percussion teacher, the legendary Elliot Fine and the great mystic drummer Davu Seru. Percussion Music; Improvised, a mammoth double CD grew out of this iconic clash of drummers. Exploring the possibility of creating monumental, pulseless music made up of great blocks of seemingly static, but subtly changing, textures whose components parts flowed seamlessly in and out of each other. Right through the endless-sounding “Impressions In Sound”, an 11-part inward-looking, atmospheric Coltranesque work. The impact of “Impressions In Sound” is overwhelming; one moment it seems to evoke a vast cauldron of eternal, cosmic rhythm, another the thunder inside the drummers’ collective cranium. Texture is everything; there are no palpable silences, instead the music is punctuated by enormous note-clusters, in overlapping layers. The sculpted sound is radiantly beautiful, suggesting something bejewelled and glowing."
