from Oannes *

Οι συνεργασίες του Νορβηγού κιθαρίστα – συνθέτη λένε “κάτι” για την πολυσχίδεια και τις ικανότητές του : Ray Charles, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Ute Lemper, Ketil Bjornstad, Andy Sheppard, Arild Andersen, Django Bates… για να αναφέρω κάποιες μόνο. Εξαιρετικά ενδιαφέρουσα είναι η προσωπική του διαδρομή σ’ ένα “κινηματογραφικών αναφορών” χώρο όπου διασταυρώνoνται τα ρεύματα της jazz, του ροκ και της electronica. Από το θαυμάσιο άλμπουμ του Sonic Codex του 2007 διαλέγουμε το “Cameo”.

✻

The collaborations of the Norwegian guitarist – composer tell “something” about his skills and versatility : Ray Charles, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Ute Lemper, Ketil Bjornstad, Andy Sheppard, Arild Andersen, Django Bates… to name but a few.
Extremely interesting is also his personal journey in a “cinematic” space where the currents of jazz, rock and electronica intersect.
From his wonderful album Sonic Codex of 2007 we pick a track called “Cameo”
