Stephan Thelen: “This piece is in three parts. The first section is quite heavy and strictly composed, with just the Sonar quartet. The second section is a tritone harmonics interlude with David and Manuel improvising over a guitar and bass pattern played only with the natural harmonics of the tritone tuning. The third section offers a very slow build-up improvisation with lots of ambient sounds and loops from David.”
David Torn: “I really like the microsampling things I do on this track to help color it. I would hit a chord and quickly sample four or five milliseconds of it and shift the pitch of it.”
This is a quite outstanding opus magnus of Mr Thelen and his associate musicians. Musical and muscular prowess meet groove and melody. Highly recommended hypnotic stuff! Frank Hadlich
An amazing follow-up to Fractal Guitar. I came across Fractal Guitar as a fan of Markus Reuter, and after downloading that had to go ahead and download all the other music Stephan has on Bandcamp. Love this stuff... crimlarks

Wow. Tough to pick a favorite, it's all just so good. Amazing. I will be finding the rest of their catalog, for sure. Some of the best stuff I've listened to lately... jeff paper
