Ambrosia 4," for example, is more of a noise exercise than a guitar-piano duo; Fernández sounds like he's sawing the instrument apart, or running over it with a steamroller, while Morris sounds like he's playing the guitar with a bow at certain points. On other tracks, much more conventional ideas of beauty come to the fore; Morris opts for a style somewhere between Django Reinhardt and Derek Bailey, while Fernández plays forcefully but with great discipline and beauty

This guitar and piano duo album from Joe Morris and Agustí Fernández is an outing by like minded improvisors, happily extending the definition of melody and the physical limitations of their respective instruments. Between rich acoustic tones they scratch and pluck in unintended places, creating rhythm and melody in adventurous ways. Ambrosia 4" is essentially the sound one may hear in their soul as they descend towards hell. Working on the guts of the piano Fernández creates dark passages that sloughs the skin and lets Morris pick the bones. There are moments when one may feel they just may make it out alive, a softening, a lighter spot perhaps, but soon the terror begins again. and this on acoustic instruments! It's quite a fantastic ride.
