Trilon

Trilon is a free-form jazz-groove project carved out of a rare day of relaxed but rigorous jamming at Stone Gossard’s Studio Litho in Seattle. Like all great music, this recording started with chemistry. A tribe of experimental risk-takers in the late-night scene at Seattle clubs explored uncharted terrain backed by a fat percussive groove laid down by Michael Shrieve, who was also the producer and creative force. The mix and improvisations were generated by this group of mates as they organically searched for a modern electrified application of the improvisatory principles of Miles Davis in the 1960s and Bill Laswell in the 1990s. Despite the influence of these two artists, Trilon sounds like neither and is altogether unique.
