This intriguing quartet consisting of trumpeter Dave Douglas, tenor saxophonist Chris Potter, bassist James Genus and drummer Ben Perowsky features free bop, some sound explorations, and straight-ahead sections in its music (nine originals by Douglas). Falling between hard bop and avant-garde jazz, the music tugs and pushes at the boundaries of the modern mainstream. Douglas varies the tempos and moods from piece to piece, giving listeners not only expertly played performances but a constantly flowing program. One of four Arabesque masters whose ownership recently reverted back to Douglas.
