COUNTERCLOCKWISE – CD
Bobby Previte + Bump the Renaissance
Counterclockwise was perhaps the finest recorded statement in the illustrious history of Previte’s band Bump. Featuring Curtis Fowlkes, Marty Ehrlich, Steve Swallow, Wayne Horvitz. The Guardian UK advised listeners to “stand well back,” while Mac Two said, “Counterclockwise has that anti-social dissonance that has defined some of the best hip-hop. It’s all about the buzz you get when music really crashes through your speakers, and I suppose the most important thing about Counterclockwise is that it has a tremendous sense of unapologetic, menacing weight.” Palmetto (2003) $15

The sound throughout is bright and super present.” All About Jazz. Veal Records (2007) $15
