    This series of startling duets has been buried for too long. It features two extremely underrated musicians - trombonist Malfatti and guitarist Wittwer, who warp their instrument's trademark sounds into unusual textures and timbres. Better yet is their near telepathic interplay and ability to create continual surprises. As Melody Maker put it: "If you need an argument for the validity of instant composition in the late Seventies, Thrumblin' is probably it."

about

All music by Radu Malfatti and Stephan Wittwer.

REVIEWS

"Much of the action on “Thrumblin” takes place at disarming speed. Together the musicians weave, dodge, spin and double back. Magically, never clashing. The movement has all the breathtaking dexterity of swifts skimming over the surface of a river. At the same time, this music is never fast merely for effect. There are no cheap Mahavishnu-isms here. If you need an argument for the validity of instant composition in the late Seventies, “Thrumblin” is probably it." - Melody Maker

"The music here is very abstract, instantly composed; I believe, and yet very closely coordinated in lead and interplay between Malfatti and Wittwer. There is no ego problem here, as the close development of the music between the performers’ allows for both unity and an exchange and exploration of lead ideas." - Cadence
