Hikoi and Journey are two works cut from the same cloth. Hikoi is a selection of musical conversations between Richard Nunns and Paul Dyne, two friends with a musical relationship spanning four decades. Journey is an elaboration on the ‘source material’ of Hikoi, from which Dave Lisik fashioned a suite of pieces for an improvising ensemble. This double-disc album offers a fascinating comparison between the relative minimalism of Hikoi and the sonic intricaties of Journey.
