REVIEWS ↓
“Philipp Eden is a German, Basel-based hyper-pianist, composer, and sound artist who explores the interplay between instrument, environment, and listening, and approaches sound as a dynamic process shaped by space, perception, philosophical reflection, and collective creation.
French, Zürich-based violist Frantz Loriot has developed a unique and radically personal musical language, pushing himself and his music out of the tradition towards ever-wider horizons, while reflecting on the relationship between his own practice and philosophical and political theories. Greek, Basel-based flutist and sound artist Marina Tantanozi reflects on the notions of communication, temporality, and active listening.
The supposedly chamber, acoustic trio of Eden, Loriot, and Tantanozi formed in 2021 and acts as a free improvised…” / Eyal Hareuveni, read the full article at Percorsi Musicali, 9 January 2026
“The very latest release from Inexhaustible Editions is another foray into the gap, the bridge maybe, between improvised sounds that are created in certain environmental surroundings and a certain cinematic atmosphere shaped by their interdisciplinary efforts. By the latter I’m trying to find connections between different audio excursions, more concentrated into ‘traditional’ sound making, and this trio.
Eden plays prepared piano and utilizes several objects, Loriot plays his viola in many different ways, while Tantanozi is more responsible for the acute atmospheres of the CD with her flute and bass flute.
Ranging from the droney, melodic atmosphere of the opening Kaiki (which in another, one of the many, turn in this CD it resolves into a request of the dynamic interplay between the instruments) up to the aggressively, but not in volume, experimental like the second track Curiosities, or the fifth, Still Swirls, the glue that keeps all tracks together is their interplay.
Many times playful, quite a few times aggressive and full of energy, all the tracks in this CD are adventures into the unknown territories that border between experimentation and improvisation. There’s nothing to be said before hand and this CD needs a lot of listening, but if you are eager to find the aforementioned roots of their practice, you shall reap the fruits of another great release from the label. Only two hundred copies are made, so be quick.” / Fotis Nikolakopoulos, The Free Jazz Collective, 13 January 2026
