Description
Radio.String.Quartet offer Nine Inch Nails, Franz Schubert, Feist, Arvo Pärt, Bugge Wesseltoft & Sidsel Endresen as being among their most recent referenced precursors. After all that, perhaps the labelling/influence games are best left to marketing executives and record stores. The group are their own thing, evolving and reshaping as they feel they must, and each album, and each composition on that album will have exactly the tones and textures needed. This is certainly the case with their first Jazzland Recordings release, "In Between Silence".
For their first release on Jazzland Recordings, it is fitting that they enlisted as producer Bugge Wesseltoft, the label founder, himself no stranger to blurred margins between genres.
"In Between Silence", was recorded live in the studio, but additionally enriched with self-created samples and overdubs. In one session the quartet even received support from the techno-pioneer Henrik Schwarz.
The use of voices widens the band's horizons considerably, a stylistic device which is now used for the first time on several pieces.
Mixing and mastering was done by Jazzland-Mastermind Ulf Holand (and producer for Nils Petter Molvær).
The radio.string.quartet: "We play the song of life, full of chaos, energy and beauty."
