Close to 100 hours of music. Nearly every "rehearsal" has been

Kaktus first came into contact during there youth in 1991 at a summer
music school. A long and thorough collaboration. The music of thrives
on a well-established level of trust and conversational understanding
in an artistic sense. Over the years the trio has developed a cohesive
musical vocabulary that emphasizes the intricasies of the interaction
of sounds. Acoustic, extended, dynamic.
