about

The sounds the duo display are truly diverse, but are seamlessly woven together to form new musical spaces that are simultaneously familiar and strange.

Tracks like Lilletrollet and Explorer's Club Annual Dinner have elements of tribal music, plodding steadily through imaginary jungles of sonic wash and swirl, shot through with glitches and moments of electronic disruption. Hints of pop music come and go, and in tracks like Sleeping in the Bush and Paradoxes, these creep through landscapes of Ambient Americana, trading stumbling guitar lines with the ghosts of Delta bluesmen and modern successors like Ry Cooder. We're so Many and Don't Mind carry through on the atmospheric pop promises, while the former carries echoes of early Jane's Addiction in childlike sing-song melodies that fall into a tape machine breakdown (without the tape machine!) Voss displays a classic Ambient country expanse, with hints of tundra as well as red sand and hoodoo formations, echoing Cooder once again, and with perhaps a tip of the hat to Norwegian guitar great, Knut Reiersruud.

Stein Urheim received the Vossajazzprisen in 2010 for the presence of his work on the Norwegian jazz and contemporary music scene, an award.

Mari Kvien Brunvoll received the following year for her solo project with voice and electronics that has been performed extensively throughout Europe for the past few years.
