1982 + BJ Cole: 1982 + BJ Cole
by John Kelman
With musical cross-pollination the norm, it's not just about pan-cultural blending; it's just as much about finding ways to blend the contemporary and the antiquated. Since inception, 1982 has combined instruments from across the centuries--harmonium, hardanger fiddle and drum set--wonderfully blending Norwegian traditionalism, millennium-spanning classicism and modernistic free improvisation on its self-titled, 2010 NORCD debut. If ...
Ivar Grydeland: Bathymetric Modes
by John Kelman
A member of drone-improv band Huntsville and the more abstruse Dans les arbres who has given Ballrogg a facelift with Cabin Music (Hubro, 2012), Norwegian guitarist Ivar Grydeland has built a busy career as a performer and as co-head of the extremely left-of-center SOFA Music. In most live contexts, like his 2007 Punkt Festival appearances with ...
1982 + BJ Cole: 1982 + BJ Cole
by John Eyles
For its third album, following 1982 (NORCD, 2009) and Pintura (Hubro, 2011), the trio now known as 1982 decided, after much discussion, to invite a guest musician to join the recording.

Ballrogg: Cabin Music
by John Kelman
If 2010's Insomnia (2010) was a significant shift away from the more decided jazz outlook of Ballrogg's self-titled 2008 debut (both on the Bolage imprint), then with Cabin Music, the departure is complete. In the Country bassist Roger Arntzen formed Ballrogg with saxophonist/clarinetist Klaus Ellerhusen Holm in 2006, and six years later the duo is now ...
Mats Eilertsen: SkyDive
by John Kelman
It's significant that, in the personnel listing to SkyDive, Mats Eilertsen lists himself last, despite having composed all its nine tracks, put the group together and produced the recording. It's a simple truth about a humble Norwegian bassist who has, in the past decade or so, been gaining considerable traction, as a co-founding member of the ...
1982: Pintura
by John Kelman
1982PinturaHubro Music2011 In a world where technology is becoming a bigger partner in everything, for better or worse, there are still some artists who strive for purity--at least within certain contexts. The trio that has come to be known as 1982, when it first came together for ...
Erland Dahlen: Rolling Bomber
by Glenn Astarita
Norwegian drummer Erland Dahlen's solo debut proffers several areas of interest, as he uses a 1940s Rollingbomber Slingerland drum kit (presumably using new heads) and overlays an array of small percussion and string instruments, electronics and other implements to craft a striking electro-organic expedition. However, the program intimates an inside view of a drummer exploiting his ...
