Their new album Horizons Held Close on the other hand is the first time that Parker and Wright have teamed up as Trance Map unfettered since their self-titled 2011 debut. Comprised of the two long twenty-five minute pieces ‘Ulaanbadrakh’ and ‘Bayankhongor’, which reference Mongolian provinces, on Horizons Held Close the soprano saxophone of Parker sounds like a series of bird whistles and duck calls as Wright on turntables and live processing catches hold of them in mid-air and sets about repurposing them with an eerie sympathy which is hard to fully trust.
