{"product_id":"fragile-2","title":"FRAGILE","description":"For the third installment of Ingrid Laubrock's duo series on Intakt (following  Kasumi with Aki Takase and Blood Moon with Kris Davis) Ingrid  Laubrock and Andy Milne develop their own sounds in a common sound  world. Fragile is characterized by the great empathy that unites these  two artists. The music, which is both stirring and soothing, confident and  intuitive, is deeply expressive and inventive. \"Laubrock's growth as an  original writer and improviser has been marked in the last two decades,  during which time she has led several bands, notably Sleepthief and  Anti-House, and proved adept at creating for large ensembles and small  groups that revealed her own individuality, mostly within avant-garde  traditions. As for Milne he has more than fulfilled the promise he showed  as a member of Steve Coleman's Metrics in the early '90s. The Laubrock-  Milne duo has a balance between the drive and momentum of  large ensembles and the stillness and engagement with silence and  space of smaller groups. Making music that releases a form of energy,  something that pulses with life, while also drawing down into intimacy,  suggesting feelings of tenderness or uncertainty, is no mean feat\", writes  Kevin Le Gendre in the liner notes.","brand":"INTAKT RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":52046681833752,"sku":"7640120193799","price":37.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/4095040-2830743.jpg?v=1778489654","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/fragile-2","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
