O’s Notes: UASSYN is a Swiss trio featuring Tapiwa Svosve (a-sax, bells), Silvan Jeger (b, bells) and Vicent Glanzmann (d, bells). They’ve evolved over several years to arrive at Zacharya, their debut recording of all-original music. They refer to the genre as skater music, inspired by skateboarders. For us, it’s free fusion. We liked Glanzmann’s percussive work on “Dji-Ut”, our favorite of the six selections. He also adds a cool drum solo on “Kheretem”. The music is free flowing but not too far gone in a brief but impactful 32 minutes.
