Jagga Jazzist Activos desde el 1994, cuando su principal letrista tenÃa sÃ³lo 14 aÃ±os, este super grupo de 10 mÃºsicos destaca por la fusiÃ³n entre jazz (con instrumentos de viento como el trombÃ³n, el saxo, el clarinete o mediante el ya mÃtico Fender Rodhes) y la electrÃ³nica de nuevo cuÃ±o consiguiendo un sonido hipnÃ³tico, sutil y melÃ³dico. La experimentaciÃ³n propia del dub y del post-rock tambiÃ©n tiene cabida en sus devaneos sonoros. Un racimo de influencias muy diversas (Talk Talk, John Barry, Herbie Hancock, John Coltraine, Soft Machine, Eric Satie, Aphex Twin, Stereolab, Tortoise o Squarepusher, y muchos mÃ¡s atendiendo a diez bocas con opiniÃ³n propia) que catapultan a una banda que gusta de la improvisaciÃ³n del jazz a la par que no pierde atenciÃ³n en el detalle electrÃ³nico inherente a la mÃºsica de laptop. Respetados por Gilles Peterson, suelen sonar cÃ¡lidos, exuberantes y virtuosos sobre las tablas, aunque en estudio se valgan de los artificios sonoros propios de la electrÃ³nica. Avantgarde experimental, jazztrÃ³nica y electrÃ³nica (usan tÃ©cnicas de cut up a menudo) son los estilos a los que frecuentemente se les asocia. DiscogrÃ¡ficamente debutaron en 1996 con \"Jaevla Jazzist Grete Stitz\" (Thug Records). Posteriormente publicarÃan \"Magazine EP\" (Dbut Records, 1998) y \"A Livingroom Hush\" (Warner, 2001), que fue reeditado en el resto de Europa por Ninja Tune un aÃ±o mÃ¡s tarde y escogido mejor Ã¡lbum de jazz del 2002 segÃºn la BBC. El single de \"The Stix\" (Ninja Tune, 2003) fue remezclado por Matthew Herbert y Dat Politics, y en abril de 2005 se publicarÃ¡ \"What We Must\" (Ninja Tune/Pias). Sus miembros forman parte tambiÃ©n de otros proyectos como Biosphere, Bugges Wesseltoft y Motorpsycho, por lo que sumando ideas y estilos, bien se podrÃa decir que los integrantes de Jaga Jazzist participan de una manera u otra en la mayorÃa de bandas importantes de denominaciÃ³n de origen noruega.

100 YEARS OF RECORDED SOUND INSIDE THE ARCTIC CIRCLE: Music Collections at the National Library of Norway, Rana Division Trond Valberg (Senior Archivist, National Library of Norway)* The National Library of Norway, Rana Division (hereafter NB Rana), was founded in 1989 when Parliament passed its latest Legal Deposit Act. The decision to choose a location 1,000 km north of the capital was a political one. In connection with the establishment of NB Rana it was decided to build a huge storage vault blasted into the mountain. The constant rock temperature of 9°C during every season makes it suitable for long-term storage of different kinds of material. There are 42,000 metres of shelves on four floors, and we have already prepared for another storage vault. The mountain vaults can resist all conventional bombs. To some extent it is important to know the origin of our institution to understand the development of the collections and associated activities. In addition to its state-of-the art storage facilities, much focus has been made on building a good technical infrastructure. We have a fully- equipped conservation laboratory and a recording studio that can handle most analogue and digital formats. Our digital mass storage system became fully operational in 2001, serving both legal deposit documents and historical material. On the subject of finance, though, I have to add that due to our budget we have barely spent any money on buying records or CDs. Since NB Rana is not open to the general public, our services can only be accessed online or by contacting the staff by phone or in other ways.

Norway's Jazz Identity by © 2019 Ashley Hirt MA
Mountain Sound: Norway’s Jazz Identity By © 2019 Ashley Hirt M.A., University of Idaho, 2011 B.A., Pittsburg State University, 2009 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Musicology. __________________________ Chair: Dr. Roberta Freund Schwartz __________________________ Dr. Bryan Haaheim __________________________ Dr. Paul Laird __________________________ Dr. Sherrie Tucker __________________________ Dr. Ketty Wong-Cruz The dissertation committee for Ashley Hirt certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: _____________________________ Chair: Date approved: ii Abstract Jazz musicians in Norway have cultivated a distinctive sound, driven by timbral markers and visual album aesthetics that are associated with the cold mountain valleys and fjords of their home country. This jazz dialect was developed in the decade following the Nazi occupation of Norway, when Norwegians utilized jazz as a subtle tool of resistance to Nazi cultural policies. This dialect was further enriched through the Scandinavian residencies of African American free jazz pioneers Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, and George Russell, who tutored Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek. Garbarek is credited with codifying the “Nordic sound” in the 1960s and ‘70s through his improvisations on numerous albums released on the ECM label. Throughout this document I will define, describe, and contextualize this sound concept. Today, the Nordic sound is embraced by Norwegian musicians and cultural institutions alike, and has come to form a significant component of modern Norwegian artistic identity. This document explores these dynamics and how they all contribute to a Norwegian jazz scene that continues to grow and flourish, expressing this jazz identity in a world marked by increasing globalization.

The Squirrel Bait and Rodan genealogies continued to dominate Kentucky's and Chicago's post-rock scene during the 1990s. Half of Rodan, i.e. Tara Jane O'Neil (now on vocals and guitar) and Kevin Coultas, formed Sonora Pine with keyboardist and guitarist Sean Meadows, violinist Samara Lubelski and pianist Rachel Grimes. Their debut album, Sonora Pine (1996), basically applied Rodan's aesthetics to the format of the folk lullaby. Another member of Rodan, guitarist Jeff Mueller, formed June Of 44 (11), a sort of supergroup comprising Sonora Pine's guitarist Sean Meadows, Codeine's drummer and keyboardist Doug Scharin, and bassist and trumpet player Fred Erskine. Engine Takes To The Water (1995) signaled the evolution of "slo-core" towards a coldly neurotic form, which achieved a hypnotic and catatonic tone, besides a classic austerity, on the mini-album Tropics And Meridians (1996). Sustained by abrasive and inconclusive guitar doodling, mutant rhythm and off-key counterpoint of violin and trumpet, Four Great Points (1998) metabolized dub, raga, jazz, pop in a theater of calculated gestures.

Jaga Jazzist « Pyramid » Nouvel Album Sortie Le 24 Avril 2020 (Brainfeeder / Ninja Tune/ Pias)
JAGA JAZZIST « PYRAMID » NOUVEL ALBUM SORTIE LE 24 AVRIL 2020 (BRAINFEEDER / NINJA TUNE/ PIAS) Les norvégiens Jaga Jazzist reviennent avec leur nouvel album “Pyramid”, le premier depuis 2015. Ils plongent cette fois-ci dans un maelström d’influences jazz, post-rock et psychédéliques. Avec une carrière qui s’étend sur trois décennies, le groupe sort ce neuvième album sur Brainfeeder, le label de Flying Lotus (Kamasi Washington, Thundercat, etc). Iconoclaste, ce nouvel album invente un son cosmique qui rend hommage au groupe jazz 80s Out To Lunch, mais aussi au gourou norvégien du synthé Ståle Storløkken, tout en saluant les oeuvres récentes de Todd Terje, Tame Impala et Jon Hopkins. Chacune des quatre longues pièces évoluent autour de mouvements brillamment construits, œuvrant à créer une symphonie de couleurs flamboyantes. JAGA JAZZIST Lars Horntveth : Guitares, pedal steel, Au contraire de l’album précédent “Starfire”, construit bout à bout clarinettes, saxophones, claviers, en studio pendant une période de deux ans, “Pyramid” a vu le jour synthés, vibraphone, piano, en deux petites semaines. Enfermé dans un studio dans la forêt programmation suédoise pendant 12 jours, le groupe a laissé libre cours à son Marcus Forsgren : guitare électrique et penchant expérimental. “Le plus important était de ne pas analyser voix nos idées, notre objectif était à chaque fois de dérouler jusqu’au Even Ormestad : Basse bout les premières mesures que nous jouions ensemble, afin d’en Line Horntveth : Tuba, alto, euphonium, conserver la fraîcheur” raconte le batteur Martin Hornveth. flute et voix Erik Johannessen : Trombone et voix Pour la première fois, le groupe a produit le disque lui-même, sans Martin Horntveth : Batterie, percussion, l’apport extérieur de leur complice habituel Jørgen Træen.

For the award-winning Norwegian jazz quartet Pixel, the urgency of their music allows for no such hesitation. The band is in the vanguard of a jazz scene brimming with exceptional young musicians, charting an exhilarating, improvisation-steeped path infused with the cathartic energy of rock. This is an exciting time in jazz’s evolution, as it expands to embrace other popular musics worldwide. Pixel stands out in this phenomenon, as no one else is melding jazz with the song structure and accessibility of pop and indie rock as they do. Pixel’s third album Golden Years captures the next step in the band’s own rapid evolution, following their 2014 breakthrough We Are All Small Pixels and 2012’s impressive debut Reminder (all on Cuneiform). Pixel consists of double bassist and vocalist Ellen Andrea Wang, drummer Jon Audun Baar, trumpeter Jonas Kilmork Vemøy, and saxophonist Harald Lassen (with everyone contributing vocals). Pixel tends toward translucent textures, tight orchestration and pop-inflected songcraft.
