Reviews
Here's a collaboration between Lasse Marhaug and Maja SK Ratkje. Both household names these days I'm sure you'll agree and here on this, their 4th shared outing they tackle the thorny issue of gardening.. Yes 'Music For Gardening' is exactly what it says on the tin. This is music created to hopefully inspire you, the hapless listener into spending more time in your garden, tendering the needs of your plants and all things green and to hopefully get you off that sofa and get your hand out of your arse. It's reasonably difficult music where samples and electronic noises are spliced together to make uncomfortable rhythms and otherworldly oddness. The track 'complaints won't help' sounds like it's been constructed with loads of cat's meowing samples and when I close my eyes I feel like I'm in cat flavoured Hieronymus Bosch painting. For all it's weirdness it's reasonably good fun and not too harsh on the ear and worth checking out if you're feeling adventurous! At times it reminds me of People Like Us and that sort of Plunderphonic sampletasticness. (www.normanrecords.com)
fourth release in this near-decade-long collaboration between maja solveig kjelstrup ratkje and lasse marhaug ... nestled somewhere in the nether-regions between harsh noise, electro-acoustic improvisation, and plunderphonic collage-work, the two are obviously having a blast running the proverbial gamut (esp. on the respective cat and dog-themed pieces ; listen to the sound-sample for the former - yeah, like i wasn’t going to put that one up) ... great stuff !!!
