about

07 ) Theorum (7:29) by Nick Maclean

Solos by Brownman Ali - electric trumpet

The Brecker Brothers’ spirit returns en force on the highly energized and breakneck paced Theorum, which provides a perfect platform for the single longest solo on the recording, an epic tale from beginning to end featuring hard blowing and angular lines from guest trumpeter (and producer) Brownman Ali. His influence as a protégé of Randy Brecker on forceful display throughout this high velocity, virtuositic odyssey. Not to be ignored is drummer Tom Grosset as he deftly lays down ferocious pocket at bullettrain tempo throughout, intensifying the entire track's high energy attitude. The name of this tune was originally 'Theorem' (with an 'e') which is an anagram of 'Here Tom' – a
reference to the fact that Grosset had been asking Maclean to write the band something fast. In a correspondence with Ali Maclean accidentally misspelled the tune name but soon found out that 'Theorum' is a proper word unto itself - a synonym of 'scientific theory' which was invented by the evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins to
differentiate it from 'theory's' frequent usage as a synonym for 'hypothesis'. Both Ali and Maclean are big fans of Dawkins and his work, so the name stuck.
