sample the album:
"Marcio Mattos has been an important member of the free improvisation and free jazz scenes since moving to London in the early 1970s. This, however, is his first solo album. There are six short solos on cello, three of which also use electronics, and three brief double bass solos, followed by an extended concert performance on bass with electronic enhancement. An overdue chance to hear this consistently fine musician in the foreground."-Enanem "[Marcio Mattos was] Born Rio de Janeiro, 20th March 1946; double bass, 'cello.
