Description
A new quartet formed with a view to making improvised music and instant compositions which avoid the highly active language of free improvisation and tends more towards ritual folk or even contemporary classical music . The result is atmospheric and occasionally unsettling, as the music ripples between spacious, metallic and otherworldly soundscapes to earthy, rhythmic and strident, yet melodic tones. The use of unusual/ethnic instruments married with two percussionists gives a distinctive flavour of the unexpected, shades of AMM meeting The Third Ear Band maybe...
Fjall recorded live sessions in the studio and also live performance to develop this multi layered and multi-instrumental album.
Expect the sonic atmosphere of the elemental tempered by sounds 'from the rough hill' (Fjall).
