Another one for inclusion in any self respecting listener's albums of the year top choice - and certainly one of the best avant releases of the year in a packed field. An intimate anti-establishmentarian alto sax and piano duo framed within the confines of a fracturing universe there is no fear of complacency. Neither is there obscurity for the sake of it. Tim Berne and Matt Mitchell play originals that make sense - a tip of the hat to Paul Motian and a version of Tim's hero Julius Hemphill's 'Number 2' also make the cut. For spiky challenging but crucially meaningful sounds as an abstract expressionist collage you will search long and hard to find any better. And with Berne there is also that salty tenderness that Mitchell knows how to negotiate and alchemise so well. One, More, Please is a little reminiscent of the idiom and rapport heard between Alexander Hawkins and Angelika Niescier on Soul in Plain Sight with added nihilistic firepower and a very different lens on the world the crucial added ingredients and secret sauce.
