«A distant call for a close encounter.
The Salamandra Duo presents us with a true and complete instrumental dialogue: At times questioning, at others imperative, but always peremptory
in the nuances of rhythm and the layers of dialogue it offers us».

«Distant Call is an album created remotely, cooked about 2 years ago by drum recordings by João Svayam (three drum tracks) and the additions of various instruments by Leonel Cardoso (who recycled these three drum tracks to create these themes that we have here today, in addition to other b sides). By that time both were collaborating on a improvisation band called Salamandra, connected to our sister label Partícula Records.
Distant Call is just like a time travel: between pure science fiction and impossible-to-deny facts born from any conspiracy theory.»

«As if two salamanders from a larger group decided to create a new flock to explore more individual questions of their existence, this Distant Call was born. It's not the first, and it certainly won't be the last, Salamandra album that I've been asked to listen to and write about... And I always have this feeling of fulfillment and certainty that everything in the Universe is in its correct order: even when it involves some pathology of dissociation. An amazing work of recycling sounds»
