On this debut trio recording, all three manage to marry their experimental
sonic researches with a highly communicative and inventive improvised
attitude. The two long improvisations move vertically on one hand—featuring
delicate and ethereal interplay—and, on the other, develop horizontally, where
all three explore clusters of unorthodox sounds without attaching themselves to
any one sound, fixed rhythm, role or pattern. Such focused and patient
conviction, sensitive flexibility, balance, and profound and highly personal
musical language create the essence of the first improvisation, the 35-minute
"Trans." It is transformed, patiently and organically, from spare and light
articulations into intense, physical sonic crescendos, without ever losing its
cohesive power.

The second, 16-minute "Chant d'ente" is less powerful than the first but still
present the same determined and experimental approach. It is built on sharper
exchange of sonic gestures that keep expanding until they form a broad canvas
of sounds and colors. And just as these beautiful, arresting sounds reach their
intense peak, they suddenly end.

One of the best releases of 2012 from a trio of incredible musicians who
produce fantastic and captivating music.
