This was introduced in the guidebook OBSCURE SOUND REVISED EDITION. Swiss drummer Pierre Favre, who has released numerous session albums and solo works, including those from ECM, and French voice improviser Tamia, who has left behind a masterpiece of astonishing performance, released this album in 1988 from ECM's contemporary/classical music line, ECM NEW SERIES. The organic space created by the various percussive tones reminiscent of a nocturnal jungle and the expressive falsetto voice on track A2 is truly remarkable. Track B3 features mystical percussion and voice improvisation that are overwhelmingly mysterious, making this an exceptional album of one-of-a-kind primitive sound throughout. Highly recommended. Original German pressing.
