Following that successful collaboration, Rempis and Chkifi decided to explore their common interests and languages further, embarking on a new duo to explore their shared interest in both West African music and improvisation.
They begin that adventure this fall, with five concerts and a recording session in Germany and Belgium.
Dave Rempis is one of the most renowned saxophonists in Chicago and the American improvised music scene, known for his many bands like Rempis Percussion Quartet, Ballister, and Kuzu. He combines a powerful sound, phenomenal technique, and an infectious joy of being on stage.

Julien Tassin is an exploratory guitarist from Belgium dedicated to improvised and expressive original music. He has established himself as one of the most creative and committed guitarists in Europe who values the expressive power and potential of music. With a dedication to strong, lyrical melodies and beautiful themes, he creates an original language and tasteful musical landscape that draws on minimalism, ambient, blues, avant-garde, rock and jazz.
His playing is raw, organic, emotional, expressive and above all uncompromising whether he is playing solo or fronting his own band. Through his compositions and improvisations he’s constantly in search of essence and purity and strives to push music boundaries. To date, Julien has released several albums, both solo, in trio (with Nicolas Thys and Dré Pallemaerts) and with his rock band run SOFA. Recently, his trio was expanded to a quartet featuring the American trumpet player Jason Palmer.
