Patrik Torsson - Kolväteserenader
The full-length debut “Kolväteserenader” (“Hydrocarbon Serenades”) is a recollection of the moments that Patrik remembers the most from the five years at sea. It is about small observations and phenomena. Meeting and talking with people. Weather phenomena, things that stood out of the grey everyday life. “Kolväteserenader” is about how life as a sailor can be in the 21st century. The music is made with instruments such as guitar and piano, electronic sounds and field recordings. The sound is deliberately left quite raw and unpolished as a personal statement on today’s hyper-produced popular music. “Kolväteserenader” is instead meant to sound like ‘at home’ or ‘cassette recording’, a feeling that hopefully feels warm and inviting.
Reviews
“Patrik Torsson tenders us with a Godardian decomposition that features spoken vignettes (in Swedish) from his storied days as deck hand on an oil tanker. There is something richly organic and elegantly delicate about his tapestries; the sea's mist is palpable, even for those who don't speak Swedish. This is mature without being parental, developed without being gentrified.”
J David Marston, XLR8R
