Burkhard Beins, Rhodri Davies, Sven-Åke Johansson

"Using acoustic instruments it is possible to create sounds that could be mistaken for electronic sounds. When the two are blended, they are similar, but the frictions that create tension still remain... This music is built up through tensions and similarities between two of the leading percussionists on the improvisation scene that emerged in Berlin around the turn of the millennium. It is highly charged, and the strange thing is how well it works with Rhodri Davies, who has very different qualities: a tranquillity, a certain absorption and penchant for the shimmering soundscape." (Thomas Millroth)
