Delighted by the warm responses to Ben Brown and Stefan Christoff's gorgeous Duet album. I wanted to share some recent reviews here that I hope inspire you to dive into this album. It's one I believe really rewards repeated listens. "In much the same way Chris Abrahams, Jim White or Mick Turner ply their trades, some artists just have a distinct playing style and sound, and Christoff is one of them. Alongside Brown, the duo conjures up something evocative here. Rich and emotive in all its twists and turns, there’s barely a moment to catch your breath." – Simon Kirk, @sun13music "Isolated piano keys and the sounds of everything crashing down around them [...] This sound feels like an awakening. The way that these notes come through it can sound as if they are singing.  Such a distinct pattern, as if to tell the story of the chaos surrounding it." – Joshua Macala, @raisedbycassettes It's been a real blessing to work on this album, and to have been able to share it with you the past few months. Thank you again for the support of this project. I'm so happy this one continues to move.

OUT NOW Ben Brown & Stefan Christoff : In Duet There is a wild expansiveness to the sound that percussionist Ben Brown, and pianist Stefan Christoff capture here. An unbound and inspirational collaboration that pronounces a vivid essence of light, sky, and the endless ocean. Glimpses of stillness ease a gentleness that peers through the chaotic and terrible world. Always working a wide envelope, between which gather a myriad of forces that continually play against one another, pulling a distinct emotive thread that sparks a magnificent shape. A thing uncultivated as such feels inexact, but profoundly spontaneous. These moments of inspiration feel mighty and tangible, like how the river rushes and the trees tremble. Yet even in these delicate passages where the glimmer rests and the stones sit quietly, the breadth of it remains.
