Helge Tømmervåg from Kristiansund on the mid-west coast of Norway is one of
the veterans of the Norwegian electronic scene, he has made music since the
early 80's, and in the mid 90's, he started his current project Mind over
MIDI.
Project 3 is his awaited third album, and he continues with the style from the
previous ICE Acoustik album; that is dark arctic ambient mixed with
Berlin-minimalism.
The album offers the listener a wide range of atmospheric sounds, echoes and
rhythms. An album filled with reflective moods, ambient frequencies, hypnotic
rhythms, and introducing a new element in Mind over MIDI's sound; vocals.
Various guest vocalists are contributing: Norwegian jazz-singer Sidsel
Endresen, Anneli Drecker from Bel Canto, Stein Bjercke from indie-rock band
Lorenzo, Hilde Drange from Slowpho and Oddman who also participated on one
track on ICE Acoustik. Other Norwegian jazz musicians contributing are Nils
Petter Molvær (trumpet) and Bugge Wesseltoft (piano).
Project 3 is drawing you away from clubland, back to the living room and the
headphones. The listener wanders through an ice acoustic space with
characteristic strange noises mixed into the biggest space you could imagine,
in which the human voice, emotional feelings and messages create adventures
for the ears.
The CD is out now in Norway, and can be ordered from Beatservice Mail Order
www.beatservice.no/bsmo.html. It will be released worldwide in august.
