Dominik Burkhalter, drummer and composer from Switzerland, recently back in Zurich after a yearlong stint as an artist in residence in New York, is one of the most versatile and sought after drummers in Europe. Being from a younger generation, he's not only a jazz drummer by heart and attitude but also a modernist to the core - playing breakbeats and grooves with a precision that rivals Swiss clockworks, as one can hear in bands like Asphalt Jungle and DOM. With Vault, one of his own projects with partners HP Pfammater and Young Gods producer Roli Mosimann, Burkhalter excessively pushes a musical style that defies any categorization except that it's beyond jazz, intelligent and loud.
He's also a regular with Christy Doran's New Bag, Domenico Ferrari, Burhan Oecal, Reto Suhner, Swiss Popstar Emel and together with New Yorker hotshots Leo Tardin and Mike Ladd they form Grand Pianoramax.
Burkhalter performed all over Europe as well as in the US, in legendary venues like the Filmore in San Francisco, the Roxy in LA and House of Blues in Vegas and at Jazzfestivals like Montreux, Vienne and countless others. In his free time, he's offering mixing and recording services in his fully equipped drum-studio and as a visiting professor he teaches rhythm and drums at the University of Arts and Music in Lucerne, Switzerland.

A Tribute To Tony Williams
While Christy Doran's New Bag is pausing, Doran, Zwiauer and Burkhalter assembled for a tribute to the great Tony Williams' LIFTETIME. Their own interpretation of the LIFETIME material has got the same energy and joy of playing as the original, nevertheless they are going their own ways after all 40 years are passed.
The original lineup of LIFETIME included Tony Williams, John McLaughlin on Guitars and Organplayer Larry Young.
Vault is VAULT is music from outer space, made by musicians from planet Earth: Acclaimed Drummer Dominik Burkhalter and exalted Pianist HP Pfammatter, both yearlong collaborators in different combos like Christy Doran's New Bag and DOM. Now, with VAULT, the earthlings are electronically supported by audio deconstructivist Roli Mosimann, himself a man from Mars, producer of illustrious bands such as the Young Gods, Faith No More and New Order.
Together they form something that could be described as improvised breakbeat music, sometimes danceable, most of the time quite loud and always intelligent. Instead of categorizing what defies categorization, VAULT reflects a chaotic world without musical borders, yet, almost unexpectedly, the two musicians manage to bring an organic, almost warm feeling to the complex drum and piano patterns they play. Mixed together with Mosimann's subtle electronic hiccups, VAULT creates a truly unique and challenging soundscape.
