“On Colors, everything has been pared down to only the bare essentials. Maria Laurette Friis’ vocals unfold in an improvised language, with words and sounds arising in the moment. This merges with Thomas Morgan’s pure and understated bass playing. Morgan has a sensitivity to language, and he is also fluent in both Esperanto and computer programming languages. Friis and Morgan have something to say to each other through the music. At the center is the contradictory and the intuitively abstract yet concrete. This is not meant to be interpreted or analyzed. It is meant to be felt and experienced through the senses. The duo’s unique expression is both captivating and ever-changing.”
