"Anla Courtis, once leader of the strange Argentine group Reynols, and Kouhei Matsunaga, aquatic bird
from Osaka, embark on a quest for a playing field via a working method comprised of four stages of
cooperation: solo, remix, telepathic collaboration, and real (i.e. physical) collaboration. Guitar,
fragments of clarinet, voice, fingernails, electronic devices, plastic bags, are all witnesses to an
intercultural communication more or less at a distance. Drones and hypnotic layers oscillate the sonic
space, creating swelling turbulence and a whirling mass evocative of animal laughter. Technology
meets myth and disorder. A crystallization of misunderstandings and accidents. Note the participation of
the actionist Rudolf Eb.er in the eighth track." (Prêle)
