The duo met on a rainy day in Tilburg (NL) while working for a dance project -- they came down from very different roads. Gao Fhunyue, a stage director-performer-musician chameleon, works alone or collaborate with Annalena Fröhlich (Robinrobin, Just Another Woman In Space), Thom Luz, Unplush, Peeping Tom, Dorit Chrysler, Ko Murobushi, Damien Jalet, The Scottish Dance Theatre, Bern Ballett, for a most colorful variety of venues in Europe. She is a member of the music association Bongo Joe (Switzerland). Sven Kacirek, an established musician living between Hamburg and Nairobi, who released several records on Honest Jon's and Bureau B and collaborated with several artists like Shabaka Hutchings, Ogoya Nengo, Marc Ribot, John McEntire, Sofia Jernberg, Nils Frahm, Hauschka, F.S. Blumm, and Stefan Schneider. Their encounter quickly revealed that both their musical sensitivity and their instruments (marimbas, drums, percussions, electronics, theremin, Buchla synthesizer, piano) matched stunningly, and that they had to play together. After a short while of rocky life adventures and theater projects in which they collaborated, their off rehearsal sessions would become a lively necessity. The wish to give birth to a project entirely their own, grew so strong that they locked themselves in Sven's studio at Jaffestrasse in Hamburg, and started working on the debut of their duet. They present and share with you their labor of love, in hope that it will be good to your heart. Includes printed inner sleeve and download code.
