“V\u00e9ritable complicit\u00e9 harmonique et humaine.”<\/em>
\nJazz Mania.be, Eric Therer (on Gaya 2022)<\/p>\n

“Eberhard’s compositions\u2014bold in structure, fluid in dynamics, unpredictable in the best possible ways\u2014demand close listening. For the patient, those prepared for a long seduction, repeated listening will gradually unveil a wealth of riches.”<\/em>
\nAll About Jazz, Ian Patterson<\/p>\n

Amoeba\u2019s Dance will slyly step and slide into your heart, in the 1 minute 11 seconds of track 1 Dactylopodial. 6 seconds of track 3 Reticulate your body is quite likely moving. For the ones who dare to dance there are tracks to animate. For attentive ears there is spaciousness with depth, the proximity of the very near to further away \u2013 each track an intimate creature with distinct shape shifting momentum, that form this compelling body of music.<\/p>\n

With seductive and delicious play by each of the musicians, Amoeba\u2019s Dance<\/strong> is a testament to Silke\u2019s compositions, achieving the rare feat of a perfect balance between the greatest possible freedom in interplay and what happens of its own accord within Silke\u2019s intricate systems.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had a basic idea that amoebas move around by changing their shape. I built various small systems that I looked at as if through a microscope. What happens when I go deeper and deeper into the details and then pull the sounds apart again until I am satisfied with them? It was research in tones.\u201d<\/em>
