American trombonist, composer and producer Peter Zummo releases his latest album, Deep Drive, on Tin Angel. Coming from the interdisciplinary avant-garde of New York City's downtown scene, Zummo's work over the years with Arthur Russell, Love of Life orchestra, Downtown Ensemble, Flying Hearts, and Lounge Lizards saw him create a style that he wryly termed "minimalism plus a whole lot more." Across the five tracks of Deep Drive, Zummo refines the work he describes as "composition of and for ensemble" with five, very different musicians. Along with old friends bassist Ernie Brooks and percussionist Bill Ruyle, Zummo plays with three new collaborators on Deep Drive: turntablist Keith McIvor (aka JD Twitch of Optimo), electronic producer and trombonist Ralph Cumbers (aka Bass Clef), and cellist Oliver Coates; a sextet merging Zummo's "open form" composition and performance techniques with electronic and live instrumentation, vocal processing, collage and spoken word.
