TOKIO QUANTIZE and other magic songs by the vansina verbruggen gudmunddson trio ft. magic malik & jozef dumoulin live at zuiderpershuis antwerp 23 march 2007 RAT 007.

With some bands, it just needs to be moving. And we aren't talking about beats per minute, nor about fierce finger snapping, but rather about a sense of urgency. A compulsion to make music together, to plan, to record and right now, if you please, or accidents will happen. The trio of Bruno Vansina - sax, Teun Verbruggen - drums and Gulli Gudmundsson - bass is one of those. The CD 'Trio Music' of one of their first concerts was recorded in 2005. From the very beginning, it was a quest for their own sound, by means of classics, own compositions and free improvisation. Something like that is called 'growing up in public'. An intense inquisitiveness drove them to aim high: in 2005 they created Double Trio - a confrontation between a jazz trio and three dancers -, with the internationally renowned dance company Rosas. A year later they were on tour with the Fender-Rhodes mammoth Jozef Dumoulin (who plays with the trio at the Flemish Jazz Meeting 2007 as guest) and Magic Malik, who got himself noticed on St-Germain's Boulevard. And, as it becomes this band, the tour resulted in a live album 'In Orbit'. Gradually, with an almost oppressive simplicity and, above all else, with lots of guts they fling themselves wholeheartedly into exhilarating improvisation. That requires nerve but also knowledge.
