Rythm and Breath
By Auster Loo

The Belgian music duo Auster Loo, consisting of Lydie Thonnard (flutes) and Simon Leleux (darbuka), delivers us a first album Rhythm & Breath, which full of very personal compositions. The music is a dialogue between the flute and the darbuka, between airy melodies and down-to-earth percussion, between the desire to return to the sources and the wish to write for the present day. In any case, the album’s thirteen titles are meant to build bridges
