On January 27, 2012 my trio DKO (Davis, Keston, O’Brien) spent about thirteen hours at the lovely Waterbury Studios in Northeast Minneapolis. We have yet to properly edit or mix any of the six or more hours of material that we performed during the session, but Jon Davis has condensed a few segments recently for sharing. Here’s one of those segments for your listening pleasure.
My trio, DKO performs Tuesday, February 21st @ Acadia Cafe. 9pm/all ages/free. More for information about DKO visit AudioCookBook posts tagged with DKO, or checkout our tumblr page.
Tonight (Friday, January 6, 2012) DKO is performing our first concert of the year. We’ll play two sets at Acadia, 329 Cedar Ave S., Minneapolis, MN 55454. This little gem of a venue has one of the best beer selections in the city. There’s no cover and all ages are welcome. Here’s another segment from our December 16, 2011 performance at the Kitty Cat Klub. This one starts out with some Pro-One arpeggios then moves into Rhodes playing with a solo at 4:43 and then a Pro-One solo at about 9:25.
This improvised piece from my trio DKO was recorded live at the Kitty Cat Klub on December 16, 2011 (live mix by Ryan Olcott and post mix by John Keston) and features Jon Davis on bass, John Keston on keyboards (that’s me), and Graham O’Brien on drums. For more music, information about DKO, and booking please visit dkomusic.tumblr.com. My rig on this track included two of my favorite standbys; the Rhodes electric piano and my newly calibrated Pro-One. I also had my Electro-Harmonix Memory Man Delay on a send and used the Korg Monotron for some atonal synthesizer textures.
