New 2010 release from our Spainish friends over at ad21. Bruno & Mathias create a superb ambience combining bruno's delicate piano over mathias backdrop of deep drifting, almost hypnotic drones. This combination works so very well and certainly is one of the highlights this year so far.

For this work of art, Mr Sanfilippo and Mr Grassow have teamed up a second time, together creating a smooth and quiet sonic soundscape to follow-up their critically acclaimed “Ambessence”. The six “chapters” on “Cromo” offer 62 minutes of intimate soundings which sees a precise interplay of Bruno’s Old Lady Grand Piano and Mathias vast, transparent and fluid drone tapestries. The outcome is delicate, sensitive, glacial and hypnotizing, a slow drift with a soothing, mesmerizing effect. Chapeau, Mathias and Bruno.
