"In vain we search for music providers, not run by big tech or ego venture capital, that respect musicians performing rights and sustainable ecofriendly investments"
Lindal & Bjelkeborn

2. Rutschklapper 06:46
3. Moorechants 13:13
4. Beebees 17:25

•Eva Lindal - violin
•Thomas Bjelkeborn - electronics

_This music leads the way towards the distant shorelines of the pleasingly unheard, four intense journeys created during in-depth exploratory sessions staged by Sound Quartet, adventurous duo compositions that excels as high energy soundscapes driven by unaccustomed playing techniques and harsh spectral combinations.

"With a whip made of crickets bone and chariot wheels of long spiders legs, galloping brains night by night with dreams which is as thin of substance as the air, elusive and malicious delutions for lovers and soldiers alike. The fairies midwife, this is she, Queen Mab"

The music on this album has strong traces of old style acousmatic soundart, electronic minimalism and the Swedish text-sound genre. This is a collection of unique stereo adaptions of the original multichannel fixed media compositions created by the renown Swedish sound artist Thomas Bjelkeborn. These creations are closely related to the sound worlds presented by influential international electroacoustic music communities around the globe and has been performed at art music festivals on all continents. The respective works was composed in a multitude of residencies in electronic music studios in Sweden, France and Great Britain.
