How can three complementary elements be reconciled in such a way as to form a new symbiotic whole? A process dating back to the days of early colour photography provides an idea of how to do that. The „autochrome“ technique, going back to the Lumière brothers in the early 20th century, is based on the fact that by dithering the three colours red, blue and green all other colours can be derived and, thus, complex colour photographs can be produced. Autochrom is also the name of saxophonist Luise Isabel Volkmann’s new trio together with bassist Athina Kontou and drummer Max Santner. Autochrom’s music is best described as a complementary symbiosis. So what could be more obvious than to name their common debut album „RGB“? Volkmann herself represents red, Kontou is green and Santner embodies blue.Vom Start weg ist klar, dass in diesem Trio niemals die auf der Hand liegenden Ideen überstrapaziert werden, sondern immer wieder überraschend und sehr souverän neu und anders abgebogen wird."
