Sean and Taku share an interest in structure, space and time. A spartan, abstract, considered and surprisingly musical set.
A trio of Tamio’s screaming and immovable slabs of sound; Mico’s dance/ performance/ piano; Fritz’s absurd, flailing percussion/ voice.
Blissed-out sun-dappled drone ragas of the highest order, with a metal-tinged signature sound of plucked and bowed strings.

Harrowing but musical confrontations with the very real, physical and aural trauma of a woman screaming.
