LabField’s third album LabField\u2019s masterly third album, \u201cBucket of Songs\u201d, shows a band that has expanded its palette considerably since their previous release. Whereas the focus was previously on a soundscape characterised by long, richly detailed, slowly flowing drones, this new album is more a collection of improvised songs and tunes. The amazing Mariam Wallentin (Wildbirds & Peacdrums, Mariam the Believer, Fire! Orchestra) contributes vocals on several cuts.<\/p>\n

Stacken\u00e4s and Zach previously played in the trio Tri-Dim together with saxophonist H\u00e5kon Kornstad. When the trio was put on the shelf, they decided to form a duo and try out a radically different approach to music. Both their first album, \u201cFish Forms\u201d (Bottrop-Boy), and their second, \u201cCollab\u201d (HUBRO), showed an improvising duo using an overwhelmingly rich sound, on a steady course through a hypnotic drone landscape. \u201cCollab\u201d was one of the HUBRO label\u2019s first releases five years ago.<\/p>\n
Giuseppe Ielasi (guitar and electronics), from Italy, who guested on the duo\u2019s previous album, is included here as a full member, making the duo into a trio. Ielasi has released several solo albums on the label 12K, and has previously collaborated with Taku Sugimoto, Jerome Noetinger, Phill Niblock, Oren Ambarchi, and many others. Ielasi also operates the label School Map.<\/p>\n
