ABOUT: ”SIREN SONG”
Originally written for my students, who needed to be introduced to a specific type of jazz with approachable chords, interesting rhythms and a singable melody.
I was obviously quite fond of the melody when I gave the tune a title; and it was actually intended as a working title – but somehow the title and the song grew inseparably together.
I am so happy with the rhythmic conversation and interaction that occurs within the band throughout the song – exactly the kind of rhythms I was hoping for when I wrote the song.
ABOUT AETHER *
After seven albums in a modern New Yorker jazz sound, touring Denmark and
abroad, I felt a deep need to present music that sounds like 'me' - and the
place I come from.
The albums was composed with thoughts for my family and friends,the place I grew
up - and for this band's specific sound. A music that moves in the quiet and the
deep - this album is composed based on the same basic premise/dogma: the ballad.
Ballads with spherical lightness in the simple melodies, with harmonic
references to indie rock in the chordal concept called "modal interchange", born
in an eclectic field between electronic music, surf, indie and acoustic jazz.
Aether is a deep exploration of the 'quiet', but also challenging the concept:
can a 'slow burn' be played with such a lightness, that it is still perceived as
a ballad - how much can you stretch the format dynamically and in terms of tonal
density.
The album is composed as one coherent whole - with tracks that mirror each
other, transitions between the tracks, alternating grooves and soundscape - all
held together with a consistent harmonic and dynamic dogma. I hope it will be
met by curious ears - perhaps in its entirety - out in the world.
