Mischa Blanos & Khori Ander – Crossrhodes

Mischa Blanos & Khori Ander – Crossrhodes // algorhythmofunknown – AROU001

The seven stories unfolded on this album, debugged by a fabulous clarinet technique and a wonderful piano craft, narrate about the Universe, about the Chaos and also about the miracle of the musical sound.
These imaginative stories, made with talent by musicians Mischa Blanos & Khori Ander, talk about a special attitude towards a distinguished estate of mind, a unique colour of the space around us, devoted to a spirit of meditation, introspection on vast temporal surfaces, each piece representing facets of the same unique and unrepeatable algorithm of an improvisational euphonious Universe.
By developing ideas in the process Cezar Lazar engineering craftsmanship reveals the outcome of a thoughtful recording and duo’s synergy, refining and defying predictable musical territories.
