Where it came from
B + B was released in 2002 on the Instant Composers Pool (ICP) label, a Dutch collective founded in 1967 by Misha Mengelberg, Han Bennink, and Willem Breuker. This record captures the spontaneous interplay between British experimental musician Steve Beresford and the legendary Dutch percussionist Han Bennink, embodying the label's long-standing dedication to the free improvisation movement that flourished in Europe during the late twentieth century.
The collaboration showcases the distinct stylistic shorthand developed between the two performers, known for their playful yet rigorous approach to sound. By utilizing an unconventional array of instruments and found objects, the artists aimed to subvert traditional jazz boundaries. The album was received within avant-garde circles as a testament to the enduring chemistry of the ICP network, reflecting Bennink's signature kinetic energy balanced by Beresford's eclectic, often humorous sonic textures.
