In a world that can leave us sensorily inundated
and dependent on recreation seekers picking least common denominator
entertainments, we find ourselves looking for sense and humor,
comfort and respite, for people who pay attention and to whom we
should pay attention. Mick Rossi and Russ Johnson are two
people worthy of our attention.
Their music is not New Agey or folky or what
is popularly thought of as "comfort music," but it is organic:
real, unadulterated, non-Pasteurized playing, filled with sonically
nutritious things. Out? Not really. New. Organized and organizing. In
and out of each other's orbit, affected and affecting, in one place
and everywhere, illuminating the understanding of "consciousness" and "intuition" in
a post-quantum physics world of entanglement where nothing (and
everything) is as it might seem.
Personnel

All compositions by Mick Rossi [Blue Shift
