Album Review

Reviewed 2003-12-13
Piano-percussion duets, all acoustic, in the abstract free-improv vein. Percussion is enhanced by a lot of scraping sounds and rattles.

1*- Spashy pointillistic piano, like little handfulls of diamonds tossed into water, and fast percussion
2- Slow industrial screeching
3*- Stumbling jungle drums and lurking, quiet piano ... gradually becomes stronger and more tense.
4- Eerie, screechy, quiet
5- Sparse: loud with lots of pauses
6*- Slow and delicate
