Just like his contemporary (Kenny Wollesen), Tim Daisy is a very adept and fluid vibes player as well as a 'go to' drummer...
This album seems to dial into a soundspace somewhere between Ornette Coleman's late 60's trio and Eric Dolphy's 'Out To Lunch' ensemble...but Tim's compositions are very much his own and terrific they are too!
He doubles on drums and vibes,the bass is a constant driver and it is good to hear alto and bass clarinet deployed as well...special all round,in fact...

It’s hard to say exactly what SIM CARD HØLDER is, but on this LP, it plunges you deep into a terrifying world of shadow and space. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 29, 2021
A previously unreleased LP from Hermeto Pascoal, a cultural icon in Brazilian music. A mix of structured compositions and improvised work. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 12, 2017
Great, great band, The Engines...this live recording (The Green Mill, Chicago) just hits the sweet spot continuously...
The playing, the improvising, the interplay, the energy and the verve just don't get better than this for me...all Ken Vandermark associates, all quality guaranteed composers.
Lots of exceptional stuff on this label (Dave Rempis' Aerophonic Records) too...check it all out, it's worth your time and effort. John Cratchley
