From Paracas Ritual by Manongo Mujica and Terje Evensen, the very still 'Origins' is streaming. Manongo Mujica is a Peruvian percussionist, composer and visual artist. Terje Evensen is already familiar to marlbank readers from the Norwegian's work with Spin Marvel as an improviser of acumen who explores the vast potential of electronic and ambient sounds. Inspired by the desert and bay of Paracas, south of Lima, the record blends ''ambient, sound art, meditative percussion music, free improvisation and jazz,'' according to Buh, who are issuing the album on 26 October.
