Both Nick Grey and Empusae should dispense any introductions and are known for their collaborative efforts with other artists. The first came to prominence with the post-rock/experimental/electronics ensemble L'Eglise du Mouvement P?ristaltique Invers? and his solo work crossing over avantrock and classical compositions in addition to being a member of 48 Cameras. In addition to his highly acclaimed ritual electronics project Empusae, Sal-Ocin is an accomplished percussionist and member of This Morn' Omina, Tzolk'in as well as live member of Ah Cama-Sotz. "Simple Black Lines in a Diagram" is the seamless encounter of the talent and creative worlds of both artists. In it, Empusae's captivating tribal rhythms and singular ambiances provide a perfect complement to Nick Grey's expertise at crafting and interpreting melancholic songs of exquisite elegance. The result is a delicate work of intricate and subtle composition: sad, introspective, haunting and somewhat disturbing at times. Nick Grey and Empusae expertly crafted a set of melancholic haunting ritual ballads which should be a must for any discerning listener. Mastered by IC434, this release comes packed in a luxurious A4 pack with artwork by [Massen Grab] with drawings by Katelijne de Corte.
