    "Seeing them live is enchanting; realizing the way the trio can intuitively synchronize amidst the illusively chaotic music creates a magical relationship with the spectator. We listen to MOVE with the same sense of beauty that we find in the safe observation of a storm. This trio is excellent and has found a perfect combination of musical personalities, will and technique."

    - Gonçalo Falcão, jazz.pt


    "(...) Urgent and brutal, uncom prom ising and explosive, chaotic and thorny, and bursting with restless ideas. MOVE’s mission is to explore the limits of interplay and com munication throughout five compact pieces with raw and tough power, but also with perceptive and incisive construction. (...) Zenícola, Gibson and Valinho sound like updating the Albert Ayleri-ian spiritual ghost energy through the seminal work of Massacre, The Thing and ZU trios and suggest their own fiery and urban, high-octane recipe."

    - Eyal Hareuveni, salt peanuts*


    "A free-wheeling trio, with virtuosic instrum entation that seems to permanently walk on shards of various genres - jazz, funk, kuduro, punk, frevo, heavy metal and breakbeat (...) It is omnivorous music, with a permanent longing, a systematic dissatisfaction with the various states achieved together, and based on an immense musical complicity."

    - Gonçalo Frota, Público


    "MOVE could have naysayers accuse them of brutish violence and non-stop aggression, but that would be a one-sided view. The band consists of musicians that are way too committed to acts of freedom and spontaneity. (...) Something exciting, a frenzied and overpowering mass of sound and energy. BAM!"

    - Guy Peters, The Free Jazz Collective

about

MOVE has an urgency for movement. Where change is not only inevitable, it is burningly wished for. Willed into existence. From a sense of interconnectivity sprouts a direct, decisive and ready-made improvisation. Relentless as the rainforest, fertile as alluvium, blossoming ideas from doubt.
The three musicians connect through an unwavering awareness of each other's creation, where activity and adaptability are strived for, where communication and respect are paramount - where everything is possible and the impossible is desired.

MOVE is the concept and music of bassist Felipe Zenícola (Chinese Cookie Poets, New Brazilian Funk), saxophonist Yedo Gibson (Eke, Naked Wolf) and drummer João Valinho (Rodrigo Amado Refraction Quartet, Fashion Eternal).
