Notes

In the fall of 2003, Dean De Benedictis (Surface 10) called up his fellow recording artists Giuseppe Patane (Maata Haari), Andrea "Jako" Giacomini (Socadia), and Takeshi Nishimoto (I'm Not A Gun) to start a project that would keep their chops up while at the same time keep their musical roots in tact. The result was an LA-based, improvisational jazz ensemble with an alternative/progressive sound tenuously campared to that of Tortoise, Weather Report, Soft Machine and ECM jazz artists from the 70's and 80's. Fateless has compiled the ensemble's best jam sessions as a CDR release for 2007 called Drawn Straws.
