Why intersect: Colleen consistently plays beautifully composed, minimal music; Nexus & Sō explore wonderful paths of percussion.

Where intersect: This Hammer Breaks and Mallet Phase is easily my favorite combination of tunes, albeit a little obvious to play together. Lighthouse and Music for Mallet Instruments, Voices, and Organ is a little more experimentally fun.

Recommend intersect: Yes! These are two pretty remarkable albums to play independently. Minimal but very different in their construction, together they still leave holes to be filled in by the creative mind while presenting brand new songs to the familiar ear.
