This live recording is from DOKK-huset in Trondheim Norway, and the concert was in fact my final artistic presentation for my PhD in Artistic Research at NTNU in Trondheim.
This concert features solo abstractations of some of the movements from the orchestral work "Tod den Maschinen" which was performed at the Ultima Festival in Oslo in 2018.
The recording was done multitrack via the Midas FOH mixer and mixed analogue at my Pitch Black Star Spangled Studio in Oslo on a Studer mixer. The recording is un-edited from start to finish.
If you purchase the album you will receive a link to the video. The video is a high quality two camera production.

My mind has been blown by this album! Discovered via Ulver and no looking back. ‘Amputation’ is stunning too. An important discovery in my music journey. Rod Sedgwick

Something of a meditative flow that feels more important than whatever he is playing at a given moment. Occasional monolithic phrases and delicate shaping of feedback sculpt time. errantzephyr
