Second album from youngsters Splashgirl see them re-inventing themselves from a piano trio in the European jazz tradition to a \u201dband\u201d in a more boundry-less musical landscape some place between ambient, experimental rock, jazz, and contemporary music. It is still improvised acoustic music, but it definitely sounds quite different.<\/p>\n

The music on \u201dArbor\u201d takes a more minimalistic and defined collective approach where the use of long, sustained sounds binds together a broad palette of string-and percussion-instruments. The band mentions Eric Satie, Earth, Morton Feldman, and Oren Ambarchi as important references. Repetition and duration play a major role on \u201dArbor\u201d as the music unfolds slowly and leaves a lot of room for a focus on details. \u201dPatience is bliss\u201d statesbass player Jo Berger Myhre.<\/div>\n

Splashgirl play improvised music that doesn \u0301t sound improvised. This time they wanted to have a more collective approach to the music, and by improvising they have found sounds and song-ideas that they have developed further during the recording sessions. \u201dArbor\u201d also features contributions by pedal steel guitarist Anders Hofstad S\u00f8r\u00e5s, and singer\/songwriter\/soundartist Lasse Passage, two musicians with whom Splashgirl have been working closely with the last couple of years.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Splashgirl was formed in 2004 on an initiative from pianist Andreas Stensland L\u00f8we. He, Jo Berger Myhre and Andreas L\u00f8nmo Knudsr\u00f8d had known each other since highschool, and had played together in several other bands. Their debut album \u201cDoors. Keys\u201d on Aim Sound City was released in 2007 to rave reviews.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201dArbor\u201d was recorded in an old tree house called Biermannsg\u00e5rden in Oslo, and mixed by Ingar Hunskaar before pre-mastered to analogue tape by Lasse Passage.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
