[ April the 2nd release from ODIN: Gard Nilssen’s Supersonic Orchestra – If You Listen Carefully The Music Is Yours ]
release date: April 2, 2020 via ODIN
Fasten your seat belt, please. Get ready for the full tilt, barely tamed, beautiful monster that is Gard Nilssen’s sixteen-piece Supersonic Orchestra. Audacious and experimental, like everything the Norwegian drummer and composer touches, Supersonic flouts convention and, in particular, realigns the longstanding relationship between pre-composition and improvisation in orchestral jazz. If You Listen Carefully The Music Is Yours, its debut, was recorded live at the adventurous Molde International Jazz Festival in 2019, where Nilssen was Artist in Residence. The band’s uniquely configured, all-star lineup features three drummers, three double bassists and ten horn players, most of them saxophonists.

[ March the 15th release from HUBRO – Øyvind Torvund – The Exotica Album ]
Release: March 15th
Øyvind Torvund’s super-maximal adventures in far-out Exotica: think John Zorn hanging with Stockhausen in Martin Denny’s kon-tiki lounge. But it is not just a simple trip to the cartoon – land. Far from that actually and it contains more exotic notes than anyone would expect from the land of fjords.
