Broken River by THE TIM O'DWYER TRIO

"If you like it when one of the likely lads on SBS cult car show Top Gear has his face re-moulded by acceleration, you might well enjoy the momentum of this trio, led by the buzzing, ripe alto saxophone of Tim O’Dwyer.
​
In full cry, they perform some rapid rhythmic hopscotch. Then the foot goes right down.

Clayton Thomas’s pulsing bass sometimes roves, as the landscape does on fast bends, and Darren Moore’s drums throw up smashing punctuations. That’s track one. There is another like it. Also some atmospheric electro-acoustic textural play on slower tracks and, despite the starkness, a kind of dry lyricism, some caustic humour and even a sort of objectified nostalgia to go with the grainy Super 8 stills on the sleeve. Most satisfying."

Tim O’Dwyer has been playing the saxophone, composing music, soundpainting and instigating music and interdisciplinary collaborations for more than 30 years in Australia, Europe and Singapore. His music is evocative, often complex, intense, and visceral. "The playing is phenomenal, but it's totally hermetic"
