This album should in no way be mistaken for a "tribute" to Henry Cow, let alone a faithful recreation, in spirit and/or letter, of their music, rather – and this is how the title chose by Michel Édelin should be understood - its echoes (much transformed during its long journey through time, space, memory and the mysterious twists and turns of the creative process) in his own musical inner world. Aymeric Leroy, excerpts from the liner notes

How dare we spend so much valuable energy answering such questions as "What is Jazz?".

JUST LISTEN!
