| Summary: | 'Awase' is a term from martial arts, means 'moving together' in the sense of matching energies, a fitting metaphor for the dynamic precision, tessellated grooves and balletic minimalism of Nik Bärtsch's Ronin. Six years have passed since the last release from the Swiss group, which, in the interim has become a subtly different band. Bärtsch speaks of a newfound freedom and flexibility in the approach to the material.
