"Pak Yan Lau, one of the most original pianists of the new European creative scene, has the ability to build complex formal architectures starting from minimal materials -- insistent rhythms, barely hinted melodies, electronic effects as evocative as they are mysterious. Darin Gray uses his long experience as the backbone of many improvisational groups with a painstaking work on timbre and a deep and multiform sound, providing a solid support to extemporary creations that have the solidity of pondered compositions. The music of the duo develops on wide structural strings, elegantly combining the continuous surprise of free improvisation with the material suggestions of electroacoustic experimentation, in a game of references and narrative developments almost cinematic, which tell a fascinating sound world, strangely familiar yet constantly new and surprising." --Nicola Negri, Centro d'Arte Padova, Italy. Personnel: Pak Yan Lau - prepared piano, toy pianos, synth, objects, electronics; Darin Gray - double bass, preparations, objects, electronics. Double-10"; gatefold sleeve; eight-page photo booklet.
