Future Drone is a raw and brisk trio album with Jon Irabagon on tenor
saxophone, Achim Tang on bass and Joe Hertenstein on drums. Dedicated to the
late drummer Paul Motian, the music is spirited, beginning with “Future Drone”
which has an exciting angular improvisation. Jon Irabagon develops a very deep
and full saxophone tone and Tang and Hertenstein are continually inventive and
propulsive. Raw saxophone and thick bass usher in “Seven for Nothing” with the
music developing a thrilling caustic tone moving to bowed bass and powerful
drums. Everything is free of pretense and consists of in the moment mindful
creativity. “Rotten Strawberry” is the highlight of the album with rough hewn
saxophone, bass and drums advancing a stumbling funky groove. Irabagon is
particularly powerful here, deep and darkly potent over the open ended bass and
drums allowing for for three way conversation with subtle humor and a wildly
thrilling collective collective improvisation. The music on this album blends
the talent of three unique musicians in dramatic fashion, showcasing their
captivating and climactic music.
