Eruption duo (( Manja Ristic & Ivana Grahovac )) are multi-instrumentalists who achieved extraordinary communication in the sphere of improvisation. Life-long collaboration, development, and integration of ideas produced a unique sensibility - an undivided musical spirit with distinctive emotional language that comprehends sound dimension as fully material notion constantly inducing a change in the multilayered narratives.
"Enochian diaries" is a session dedicated to an old piano kept for a long time in Ivana's family. The album is knitted with the unusual treatment of an instrument, but also with carefully chosen field recordings such are sounds of Byford's forest which is located right opposite Ivana's old family house, as well as astronomical sound recordings of Jupiter's atmosphere such as Jovian chorus.
Guest performer is Serbian ambient artist Marko Paunović who contributed with samples of analog radio frequencies and electricity sound interventions.
