about

"Having left New York earlier this year, violinist Mark Feldman is a significant new Chicago transplant. He debuted at Elastic with a solo concert, but this time he was joined by drummer Tim Daisy for a spirited performance. At his most whimsical, Daisy can build a frenzy of percussion instruments. He adroitly used his ride cymbal to spur his partner and provide momentum. When in call-and-response mode, the violinist displayed some relentless inquisitiveness. Both musicians undoubtedly delivered one of the most uplifting performances of the festival, Feldman delving into dance territory often betraying klezmer roots, whose jauntiness kept popping up. A highlight occurred when the violinist got into a high-pitched serenade while Daisy provided a minimalist backdrop with an assortment of cymbals and gongs. Feldman resorted for the first and only time to pizzicato when the duo brought their collaborative effort to a stark close." -Alain Drouout // Downbeat Magazine

Relay Records is proud to present this spirited live document featuring two veterans from the international improvised music scene: violinist and composer Mark Feldman, and percussionist Tim Daisy. Recorded live at the 2021 Catalytic Sound Festival in Chicago.

Opening the third night of the festival, Tim and Mark set a high bar, presenting the audience with a focused set of duo explorations, utilizing a deep well of vocabulary, from concentrated melodic gestures to dissonant swirls of abstraction. Fierce moments of engaged interaction contrast with delicate periods of texture and reflection. The broad range of creative ideas on display was a highlight of a festival that had already showcased a wide array of innovative and original ideas.
