DKV Trio

A free-improvisation unit that uses "song structures"; many of their spontaneous compositions sound like they are based on written materials, and they focus on intensive explorations of different approaches to rhythm, moving anywhere from "free" time to pulse based grooves. In addition to using these methods the band also incorporates influences from other cultures (African, Greek, Middle Eastern) and non-jazz styles (funk, late 20th century composition, delta blues) to expand the base for their music.
