Qua is an album which smoothly and consistently eludes the grasp, despite its looped repetitions; never settles long enough to invite easy comparison. From the babbling bass brooks of Gissander to the snaking, slippery shuffle of Malturi Sa, it hovers between the liquid and the gaseous. Formalt, throbbing and oozing, seems constantly on the point of fading out but persistently fails to do so symbolic, perhaps, of the sheer, abiding qualities of both Cluster and the German music scene which first buoyed them up back in the early 70s. Recorded Nov. 2008 at Seventh Chance Studio - Maumee, Ohio
