The new album “Encounters” features Hole – known from Eple Trio and his collaborations with Tord Gustavsen and Karl Seglem (to name a few) - as the leader of a new Norwegian supertrio with veteran Jarle Vespestad on drums and new talent Håkon Aase on the violin. Inspired by traditional music such as the Indian, Middle Eastern and Norwegian folk music, the trio explores elements from these old musical traditions, combining them with their own expressions as improvising musicians of today. The result is a unique mix of eastern and western musical traditions - an open ended, “borderless” form of chamber music described by listeners as a beautiful, magical and otherworldly experience.

The Xenakis was recorded twice: once from the perspective of an intimate listener, and a second time literally "over-head", giving a first- persona perspective. The difference not only in microphone technique but also in the performer's state of mind and how he projects his playing has a profound impact on the listening experience. Radical Interpretations of Iconic Musical Works for Percussion (2013–2017) was an interdisciplinary artistic research project hosted at the Norwegian Academy of Music (2013–2017) in collaboration with the Oslo Academy of the Arts, the Oslo School of Architecture and Design, Westerdals Oslo ACT and 2L through the Norwegian Artistic Research Programme.

I loved the melodic sense and vibe and was thrilled when I was invited to guest with the trio in London in 2016. Since then we've had a chance to grow the music with tours in South Korea and Norway, before Espen wrote a set of fantastic tunes for the recording session in Oslo. They played themselves and we had a ball recording, everything clicked and in two days we had made a very special album". A.S.

The album sounds like a blend of American folk andclassic pop in the other. "This was about a desire to express everything I am, and all the things I want to say. I do not believe in genre like a cage, but rather as a large open landscape one can grow in and expand. Where a tree from an area can be perfectly planted in another, as long as you have knowledge of where it comes from and what it needs to flourish.
