Christina Carter & Andrew MacGregor / My Cat Is An Alien - From The Earth To The Spheres Vol. 4 (2006)

Label: Very Friendly, Opax
Genre: Avantgarde, Free Folk, Noise

"Brothers Maurizio and Roberto Opalio split this forth release in the series with the American queen of psych-free-folk music Christina Carter (Charalambides, Scorces), here at her debut as the new duo-project together with Andrew MacGregor (Gown). Harsh yet warm plucking at the strings and her fascinating vocals, accompanied by Andrew’s bass guitar chords and singing, sound as if the listener was called to witness the secret dialogues between two distant lovers’ hearts. The title of MCIAA’s track, “The circle of life & death”, fits as ever before Roberto’s cover painting, where the dark imprints left by a white leaf on the acrylic-colored wooden surface create a circle-like representation of life and death. As the violet color recalls transcendence indeed, so do the opening floating-guitar tunes and Roberto’s wordless-vocal hymn." (label info)
