About
Tetrapylon could not be a more fitting title for the second release of this bass quartet. The music seems porous throughout, with the four voices — so idiosyncratic and recognisable — opening up electro-acoustic spaces, substrata and tangents with incredible fluency. It’s almost as if the four basses coexist in periphery, drawing lines, hinting at traces before blurring them again… Studer, Frey, Schlegel and Weber are connected not only by their choice of instruments, but also in their dedication to letting sounds.

Here's a line-up to make basshead giddy: three acoustic basses and one electric! In less skilled hands this could lead to low-frequency overload, but these four players know when to leace space in the music, and to create variation in the sound palette. This really works!
