The layers of percussion provided by Shrestha and Flatjord drive the music forward, upward, or quietly create changing dimensions and shifting soundscapes. Shrestha's vocal contributions range from sung melody to vocal percussion, adding unexpected colouring and textural transitions to these evocative compositions. The music is meditative and contemplative, each track making a journey that is emotional, intellectual, and spiritual in equal measure. It rarely sits still, yet feels elegantly unified. There is strength, fragility, drama, tension, serenity, and even agitation to be found amid structures that move seamlessly between the gently undulating and the angular. This is a confident and inspired debut that delivers much and promises more for the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e \\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eJonsdottir and Shrestha's credentials are exemplary, and these have recently been augmented by their inclusion in Bugge Wesseltoft's 2016 edition of his New Conception of Jazz.
