Paracas Ritual, the new album by Peruvian drummer and percussionist and Manongo Mujica and Norwegian drummer and electronic musician Terje Evensen, is the result of an investigation carried out by the duo in the desert and bay of Paracas, south of Lima, on the Peruvian coast. Long days of deep listening and recordings of sounds from the desert and the bay have served as material and inspiration for this first collaborative project. Paracas Ritual is a blend of ambient, fields recordings, meditative percussion music, free improvisation, and jazz. It is, therefore, an ambitious album that courses through a wide range of languages, but it is precisely in its voracious search that it manages to venture into unknown sound terrain, as abstract and dissonant as it is melodic and rhythmic. Includes full-color, 12-page booklet with liner notes, photos by Pauline Barberi and paintings by Manongo Mujica. Cover image by Pauline Barberi. Limited double LP vinyl edition of 300.
