Sometimes Nicole Mitchell and Joe Westerlund finish each other's sentences. That same telepathic connection animates Written in the Universe, an album born from years of performing together in Durham, North Carolina. Mitchell-an internationally acclaimed flutist, composer, and former chair of Chicago's Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM)-and Westerlund, a percussionist whose work spans experimental rock, jazz, and electroacoustic improvisation, create music that feels simultaneously grounded and expansive: echo-drenched, electronics-forward improvisations anchored by Westerlund's deeply rooted polyrhythms.
