Spiky melodies give way to a series of quick, spacey yet precise grooves for solos by Iyer on piano and Liberty Ellman on guitar. The futuristic virtuosic rhythm section of Jeff Bilmes, electric bass, and Elliot Humberto Kavee, drums, light a fire under both of us. This band has been known as "Poisonous Prophets," and it was an ongoing research laboratory for rhythmic concepts and collective expression for almost 3 years. |

The melodic contours of Vedic chant form a springboard into dark grooves and heavy improvisation. What sounds like a lopsided 4/4 backbeat is actually a fast 9 (3x3). |
