Album Review

Reviewed 2003-06-22
Duets of piano and Derek Bailey, the latter playing his usual abstract language on guitar. Fernandez counters with some tricks like prepared piano (sticking wood blocks onto the strings), but also adds brief moments of tonality (recognizable melody or chords!) which is an interesting contrast.

1- Fast
2- Slower, with scraping sounds
3- Fast
4- Dark. Starts fast, gets quiet and probing.
5- Dramatic rolling piano chords, kind of gimmicky
6- A dark mid/fast jumble, gets vicious towards the end
