about

The Super Power Trio of Amendola + Henry Kaiser + Michael Manring spent much of the Spring and Summer of 2023 traveling to alternate timelines and different Earths. Picking up work where they could, they created soundtracks for quite a number of films that do not exist in our homeworld version of the Earth’s infinite timelines. On this double album of surprising and inventive trio music they share pieces from fifteen of the films that they had composed and improvised sonic narratives for.

For Scott Amendola, the drum kit isn’t so much an instrument as a musical portal. As an ambitious composer, savvy bandleader, electronics explorer, first-call accompanist and capaciously creative foil for some of the world’s most inventive musicians, Amendola applies his wide-ranging rhythmic virtuosity to a vast array of settings. His closest musical associates include guitarists Charlie Hunter, Nels Cline, and Jeff Parker, Hammond B-3 organist Wil Blades, violinist Jenny Scheinman, saxophonist Phillip Greenlief, clarinetist Ben Goldberg, bassists Trevor Dunn, and Todd Sickafoose, players who have each forged a singular path within and beyond the realm of jazz.

Guitarist Henry Kaiser operates in a multiplicity of musical genres and idioms. Free Improv, Jazz, Fusion, Rock, Contemporary Composition, World Music, and Blues are a few of the genres that he jumps between in his four-hundred-plus album discography. Kaiser is always trying to extend his guitars into novel and undiscovered areas of musical expression and collaboration.

Hailed by many as the world’s leading solo bassist, Michael Manring has been pushing back the boundaries of what’s possible on the bass guitar for decades. While his technical skill and innovations always make an impression, it is his ability to communicate on a profound emotional level that most touches listeners. As editor Tom Darter wrote in Keyboard magazine after seeing one of Michael's solo concerts, "Forget his astounding technique and musicality; forget his absolute command of his instruments; forget how seamlessly the musical ideas and the performance of them were wedded together...The enlightenment came most from feeling (seeing, hearing) the joy Michael felt to be playing...his brand of transcendental chops and musical understanding...was all in the service of the final outcome, the joy of making music.”

Something of a meditative flow that feels more important than whatever he is playing at a given moment. Occasional monolithic phrases and delicate shaping of feedback sculpt time. errantzephyr
