Identifier: CC-46139-48851

It is inspired and sourced in fields as diverse as the Old Testament, quantum physics, hermetics, Marcel Duchamp, The Tibetian Book of the Dead, Haitian Voodoo, and the music of Bartok and John Coltrane. Its message is both dark and luminous and is a visionary work summoning "liberation in all its forms."ue Walker Internet: Brambu Drezi: Words that define liberation, that are beyond boundaries, that testify to the genius of Jake Berry.

But of course there is then no question left and just this is the answer." Brambu Drezi is an answer. It is without definition; it is a master poem, three books in one, a [dis]connected process, experiential musicology, a study in sound, line, and beat and flow and genesis of what has been and is, collated into an Eliotic time...
