This Canadian/German trio based in Berlin,
draws upon diverse experiences within their environment
to explore a new music created in the moment;
sonic densities and vast cold silences are juxtaposed to bring
architectural like structural integrity to their improvisations.
Population and solitude, traffic jams and back country ways,
amplification and quietness, acoustic and electric, exploratory and communication, and of course conversations
with the many different guests
make this hotel an exciting musical experience.
