This is a collaboration album with Suetszu.
The light and depth of this is summery.
(Es un tríptico tambien.)
_Comunser_ is based to a good part on casual instrumental guitar miniatures written by Suetszu. She plays those daily and for weeks and months at times, and then again pauses for long at other times. When she starts again, the miniatures usually slightly changed.
Over the course of some years jayrope has listened many times to various states of th miniatures, and so it came, that their central musical motifs have gotten gotten to be part of his own music memory already.
Suetszu and jayrope live 2000 kilometres away from each other, visiting each other frequently normally, however in 2020 very much hindered by world-wide viral cirumstances .
Nevertheless the two met for work during late summer in Biesenthal, Germany, and so recorded miniatures, garnered with some new music and captured surroundings. So:
Here you have twice a picnic in a timeless setting, on a summer meadow, with food & drinks, field recorder & instruments.
