Album Notes & Community Reviews

A radically sparse and deeply abstract collaboration recorded under the typically pristine acoustics of the ECM label. The project features purely improvisational dialogues between Tamia's multi-octave, wordless vocalizations and Favre's highly textural, global acoustic percussion. The resulting atmosphere is ethereal, slightly ominous, and deeply surreal, drawing heavy influence from non-Western rhythmic traditions[cite: 1].
