Five years ago, Mike Rivard set out to create an ongoing experiment. What if his bassline could be the constant focal point, a musical lighthouse, where a rotating cast of allstars including John Medeski, DJ Logic, and the late Mark Sandman, could come together, listen, and be free to just go off to wherever they wanted to lead the music, creating a perfect balance of chaos and order. It seemed simple enough, but if there is one thing you learn from being engulfed in Club d’Elf music, it’s that simple in no way means basic.
