Bioluminus is a combustion machine of musical ideas and interaction. Ada Rave's tenor playing has always boasted a voluminous tone and great control over extended techniques, but this trio, with bassist Aaron Lumley and drummer Onno govaert, allows her to emphasise her melodic and harmonically based playing which is full of grit and vigor, to say nothing of the rhythmic interplay amongst the three equal partners. This could be called energy music, but just as fittingly described as deep listening music.
