Gunn-Forlano & Present Moment

  • Paradiso 903 Early Street Santa Fe, NM, 87501 United States (map)

Trey Gunn and David Forlano mark the start of a unique collaboration carved from the high desert of New Mexico. Both artists bring a history of genre-bending musical explorations.

Gunn is a long-established figure in the prog rock/improvisation scene from his years with King Crimson to his work with collaborators around the world. Forlano melds free-improvisation, electronics and live sampling into their sound. Within their performances the sounds of each player are accessed by the other to create a hyper-refractive audio experience.

Present Moment is a Santa Fe based co-operative group of four veteran players, Jim Goetsch, Mustafa Stefan Dill, Kim Stone, and Dave Wayne, that create spontaneous compositions by using thematic improvisation.

Their philosophy is that all music made throughout the world up to the present moment is available for them to use as a basis for their music. Creative use of electronics and beats plays a big role in their sound.
