I don’t know how Shane and Chris figured out when they were going to play, and with Nate we never even discussed a beat to the song.” A similar open-endedness permeates the three “Abstract” solo bass interludes, the first of which entails a rare overdub. “These were improvised pieces, not worked on. I felt it was a good time to do them. I turned on the microphones and started tuning and hit ‘record.’” The contrasting use of motion and space stands out, as does the body and resonance of Mohler’s tone. Working with the sparsest of materials, Mohler finds a way — as both a bassist and a bandleader — to forge something complete, in a category of its own. released June 10, 2022 Billy Mohler - Bass Nate Wood - Drums Chris Speed - Tenor Sax Shane Endsley - Trumpet Producer - Dan Seeff Mixed & Mastered by - Nate Wood Engineer - Pete Minn Recorded 2021 at Lucy’s Meat Market in Los Angeles, CA All Songs by Billy Mohler Music BMI Album Artwork - Eron Rauch PR - Fully Altered Media - Matt Merewitz Special thanks to Dan Seeff, Dayna Stephens, Nate Wood, Shane Endsley, Chris Speed, Evan Jake Goldstein, Randy Ingram, Ryan Julio (ETA), Dave Robaire, Paul and Kate Solomon (Sam First), my amazing family Becca, Leotie, Wolf, Van and Clover.
