Containing three tracks but 40 minutes long, 'Handling' finds the duo advancing from 2021’s dub-influenced '2X1=4', deploying its lessons in ambitious new territory that also nods to earlier collections.Handling’s three exquisitely detailed pieces are each entitled ‘Leuchter,’ German for ‘candlestick,’ encapsulating the LP’s luminescent glow and rising inner energy. Its scrupulous arrangements exploit a magic cabinet of instruments, among them pianos, celestas and cristal baschets, glockenspiels, guitars and multiple forms of percussion. Their painstakingly engineered improvisations were equally meticulously reassembled in a series of intense editing sessions.
