Album Notes & Community Reviews

Utilizing bowed instruments鈥攑rimarily the violin and sarangi鈥攁nd heavily manipulated them with live electronic processing, this album is a stunning feat of free improvisation. The British composer creates a hazy, profoundly surreal, and cavernous electroacoustic soundscape, intertwining delicate, ethereal melodies with ominous, dark ambient textures.
