Info:

Merveille & Crosson Return To Visionquest This October With Their Second Long Player, Entitled Cerulean And Featuring Nine Original Compositions From The Duo. 2012 Saw The Release Of Cesar Merveille & Ryan Crossons Critically Acclaimed Inaugural Long Player Drm, Seeing The Pair Veer Their Output Into Abstract Realms And Embrace A More Eclectic Left On Centre Production Style. Here Five Years Later The Pair Return With Their Second Album Cerulean, Again Tipping The Focus Over To A Modern Classical, Jazz, Ambient And Abstract Aesthetic, Featuring Collaborations With Juliard Trained Classical Pianist Julien Quinten, No Regular Play’s Greg Paulus On Trumpet, Wareika’s Henrik Raabe On Guitar, Yonathan Levi On Double Bass, Moritz Baumgartner Adding Additional Drum Work And Berlins Signum Saxophone Quartet. Across The ‘cerulean’ Project Merveille, Crosson And All Involved Offer Up An Amalgamation Of Sounds And Styles From The Freeform Jazz Odyssey Styles Of Even Tides And Nordic Bummers To The Ethereal Ambience Of Intro (almost Raw) And Mcyh Whilst Subtly Nodding Towards Their Minimal Roots With Acid Pal And Qaudra. The Pair Also Radiantly Display Their Love For The New Age Modular Synth Style With Arp And Life In The 80s With Intricately Programmed, Dynamic Melodies Throughout, All In All Resulting In A Truly Unique And Forward Thinking Project From An Array Of Talents.
