about

The duo of string instrument illuminator Anthony Pasquarosa and percussionist Jayson Gerycz have joined forces before, notably on the subaquatic 2018 CD-r Chimes of the Deep. II is a patient and fluttering set of slow-motion energies, with Pasquarosa approaching banjo and delay-speckled electric guitar in a thoughtful wander, and Gerycz responding with singing bowls, bowed cymbals, and traditional drum kit. Each of these five improvisations wash softly by, occasionally rising into euphoric swells. The lines between daydream and uncomfortable memory are addressed, forgotten, and returned to as the air changes around the sounds.

Long-form trance-y rhythmic jams, with a fun shambling edge, sounding like a cross between music from Africa's Sahel region crossed with a Tom Waits instrumental... Jascha Narveson

This album makes you feel like a better world is possible and somewhat close at hand. It isn't, clearly, we're stuck in dystopia, but it's so beautiful to dream. Fabio Viola

This is actually a pretty subtle record, but with focused listening, beautiful details and contours emerge from the drone-soaked country. jiristepan
