Anastasios Savvopoulos has always upheld his modern jazz roots, but is the utter case of a musician who is able to pass across and back the ever obscure territories of free improvisation. His ad-libber unit OUXPO (Ouvroir d’X Potentielle) is here again with their second take: Dialogism. After last year’s debut live recording Deterritorialization, present OUXPO album features variant instrumentalists, diverse real-time composing techniques and a highly different sonic domain. OUXPO leader Greek guitarist Savvopoulos and his regular group member, Slovenian drummer Dré A. Hočevar are accompanied this time by German tenor saxophonist Peter Ehwald and Norwegian electric bass player Dan Peter Sundland – making all four musicians coming from different geographical, social, cultural and most importantly, musical environments.

The varied background of the players of this particular quartet incarnation again suggests broad-mindedness and a valiant willingness to oppose their music making head-on. Whilst most musicians are content to work in a fixed approach and foreseeable way for most of their careers, these four musicians constantly question and challenge their own stylistic and creative processes. And the ever-changing pool of OUXPO – with all its various members, ideas and pathways – is more than an impeccable playing field for that. The music can be heard on Dialogism perfectly reflects these diverse music-making situations, but displays an ideal consensus of thoughts and purposes that is a trademark of paragon improvising musicians.

With Dialogism, we may approximate to the limitless range of the OUXPO phaenomena: Savvopoulos’ encounters with the theater of Antonin Artaud and his radical emancipatory project of the body through ritual, gesture and speech; Henri Bergson’s ideas of duration and intuition; and Gilles Deleuze’s concepts of deterritorialization, multiplicities, difference and repetition had all left traces on his compelling artistic direction as a bandleader.

And while you are listening to Dialogism, it seems that OUXPO is not about the stop: proves to be an ebullient perpetual-motion machine with all its differing variations, the next incarnation of OUXPO is already scheduled for its launching performance and album recording session early next year, again in Ljubljana.

The story continues. Onward.

Greek guitarist, improviser and composer Anastasios Savvopoulos (1980) is currently residing in Berlin. As a self-taught composer, he is mainly interested in the temporal forms of experience and the complexity of auditory phenomena that impact subjective perception and memory. Encounters with the theater of Artaud and his radical emancipatory project of the body through ritual, gesture and speech; Deleuze's concepts of deterritorialization, multiplicities, difference and repetition; as well as Bergson's duration and intuition shape the conceptual body of his theoretical and practical direction.

Berlin-based composer and performer Peter Ehwald (1979) studied saxophone at the music academies of Weimar and Köln, at the Royal Academy Of Music in London, and at City College New York. His composition Alanis was performed at Carnegie Hall in spring 2007. Ehwald plays free jazz and free improvisation with countless small units, he is a member of Christian Krischkowsky's quartet and Stefan Leibinger's Trioplus; and leads his own groups Double Trouble and Paragon. His works have been released via labels such as Unit, Konnex or Jazzwerkstatt. / peter-ehwald.net

Oslo-born, currently Berlin-based Dan Peter Sundland (1986) is a unique electric bass player and composer active in the free jazz and improvised music scenes of Norway and Germany. His playing is set apart by his expressive, wide ranging playing techniques, including cello-like bowing and a varied palette of percussive colours. He has been featured with musicians including Axel Dörner, Tobias Delius, Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø, John Hollenbeck and Steve Heather; and nominated for ECHO Jazz Newcomer of the year in 2017 with Clara Haberkamp's trio. / danpetersundland.com

Dré A. Hočevar (1987) is a Slovenian composer and researcher based in Amsterdam. Currently, he is conducting his PhD studies at the Centre For Research In New Music, University Of Huddersfield. The central subject of his research and composition praxis is .meta [dynamic cognitive-apparatus formation, application, and analysis systems]. He is the artistic director and founder of .alfabet, Institute For Research In Art, Critical Thought And Philosophy, and is frequently leading workshops, seminars, and lectures in composition, performance, research. / theōriaedoxa.com
