Description
Fremtidsfabler is the second album by composer and bassist Sebastian Haugens in his own name. The band leader and fellow musicians mix the Nordic improvisational tradition with American groove and riff-based music. The instrumentation on the record is both electric and acoustic, and the soundscape bears the stamp of the composer's fascination with the raw and unpolished sound ideal from the 1970s. The composer also gives the musicians a lot of freedom to influence the musical expression, which contributes to a unique sound where the compositions are largely colored by the performers. The compositions depict interpersonal relationships, important events, and feelings that have characterized various eras in the composer's life so far. The idea behind the title "Fremtidsfabler" (Future Fables) is based on the recognition that one does not know what will happen in the future and, seen in retrospect, what one would have done differently if one had known.
