Comment: it is said very exactly at the site of Kahvi Collective that the Lithuanian artist MigloJe is the master of drone in the discography of the imprint. Indeed, Perception is certainly a disparate case if to compare it to other issues I have heard so far. It avoids merry beats, easier synthesised progressions and picturesque compositions, it is being deliberately reserved and sealed in minimal droning and dark ambient aesthetic while arousing the listener's perceptions nevertheless. The structure of compositions used to grow slowly and stepwise. At times the aesthetic of droning is painted with loaded electricity and a wisp of more white coloured (orchestrated) overflows and some electronic effects, glitches, vague clicks and beeps and barely audible rhythms. Less is more and it will be approved eventually. As Malcolm Mooney of CAN once chirped in the beginning of the 70s that silence is an invisible conversation. It is a sublime drift between almost silence and sub-noise/microscopic noise. Of course, you shall have to add your perceptible appearances tightly correlating with them to the whole as well. It is an essential part of the perception. It may be a soundtrack for your nightmares. Highly appreciated in the perception of mine. Take enough time and silence to perceive it accurately. I guess in Lithuanian the title is as Suvokimas.

Comment: first of all, these 27 minutes and some seconds additionally are sexy and puckish. It is played by a man and a woman thereby creating a sultry synergy between each other. Furthermore, the finishing part of the composition is quite eargasmic and ending with a powerful culmination. In fact, it starts off in the same manner. On the other side, it is prankish because of consisting of an improvisational set which in turn consists of an innumerable amount of chords and abrasive key appearances on the piano and the cello respectively as if played on a prepared instrument with an extended technique. I would prefer to call it modal jazz because both instruments used to progress in different directions to eventually meet each other in mutual areas in a quite agitated and frantic way. Like demonstrating the clash between the sexes. And thereafter getting together again. Like the human life supposedly used to be. That's cool, I mean highly ear-provoking even if it is quite austere and abrasive by its instrumental park. Musically it used to be a play with angularity and deformations where the chords will get partly broken and then repaired again. Intensity is a third component within the formula. And it is the basic cycle of the cooperation. The intriguing  outing is a bit in the discography of Pan Y Rosas Discos, a dwelling place for experimental music worldwide.
