DASH! Off is the fourth album of DASH!, the amsterdam based free-funk trio led by saxophonist-clarinettist-composer Maarten Ornstein. This new album was recorded live in Splendor Amsterdam, the city's most dynamic new music venue. DASH! Off offers 5 trio pieces and a 30 minute suite featuring special guests Michael Moore, Joost Buis, Jasper Stadhouders and Joshua Samson, all of whom have worked with DASH! before. Inspiration for this new album comes from the likes of Ornette Coleman, James 'Blood' Ulmer, Sonny Sharrock and Odean Pope, to name a few. DASH! Off marks the band's 10th anniversary. Starting out as an octet in 2005 (with percussion and 4 singers) the band was re-formed in 2012 as a trio after a two year pause. Two octet albums were released; 'DASH!' in 2006 and 'Bangalore' in 2009. As a trio they released 'Lowpass Heroes' in 2013.
DASH! Off is available on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, and Bandcamp.
