This time around they are joined by the very talented multi-instrumentalist Andreas Martin. Martin has often worked with Heemann throughout the years; see the excellent 2 CD set documenting their collaborations called Lebenserinnerungen Eines Lepidopterologen (also on Robot Records). Martin's touches are sometimes subtle, and sometimes quite obvious. On Nightwalkers, we see Mirror admirably branching out from the long drone pieces we have seen in their previous work (see the reviews below). Instead, side one offers us shorter pieces with all manner of sounds in what seem to be more improvisational arrangements. Sharp tonal shifts, percussive clusters and rhythms, resonations from guitar strings, and unexpected turns make these pieces exciting and surprising. Side two returns us to the more familiar drone territory, and concludes with a breathtaking piece, so very rich in detail and texture, which moves slowly with acute deliberation. As with all of Mirror's output, which for me represents some of the most captivating and complex ambient-experimental work in recent years, this one comes highly recommended." Caronte
