"...these
sessions seem to be a signal moment for Kaufmann and Moore, one for
examining every little aspect of how they interact.
The music is a monument to
sustained, unflinching (and deeply satisfying) introspection. Indeed,
if you let yourself explore these discs – straight through, on
permanent shuffle, or in stages (I tried a few variations) – you’re
given a microscopic tour of duo art. These Ramboys are rarely fevered,
yet they never stand still. They contain some extraordinary
music-making.

Achim Kaufmann & Michael Moore
Nothing Something
Scène en miniature 
Unswaddled blues 
Or greens much like the syllables 
Of a scarf, wolving distance 
Gone chaste, familiar 
As eavesdroppings in a story 
Callosity-ridden, lending speech 
To leaves, their edges perplexing 
As absence when 10:00 a.m. laughed once 
Quurus 
And was lost between 
Afterthoughts composing 
One landscape, two reasons 
Michael Moore - alto saxophone, clarinet
Achim Kaufmann - piano
