Brigitte Beraha is one of the most creative vocalists and composers currently working on the UK jazz scene. Beraha?s intention with 'Blink' was not merely to put on a pyrotechnic display of her outstanding free range. Rather, she and her quartet of applauded creative musicians, Lucid Dreamers, sought to wreak a music based on ?communication, interaction, and honesty with the surroundings, through playfulness, chaos or silence?. Partly composed and partly the result of improv sessions, the beautiful Blink transcends jazz, and melds with electronics in a way that is reminiscent not just of Basil Kirchin and Steve Lacy?s late electronic fusion work, but also of Talk Talk and the solo work of Robert Wyatt, in its oceanic ambience, its plaintiveness, and its periodic gusts of squally wildness, courtesy of tenor player George Crowley and drummer Tim Giles in particular.
