Richly Layered Music, February 9, 2008
This review is from: Commuter Anthems (Audio CD)
Opsvik and Jennings have created a rich tapestry of music here. Each track weaves together a myriad of electronic sounds with a variety of guitar sounds. They have seamlessly woven together twangy accoustic guitars, banjos, hawaiian slide guitar parts with electronica. The end result is something that sounds like mix between psychadellic pop (e.g. Pink Floyd Circa 1968 w/o vocals) and a John Cage prepared piano piece. The electronic sounds give it a post modern finish. There is not really any soloing on the album, so you can't really call this a jazz CD. To put this CD in any genre would be a difficult task. The overall mood of the CD is ambient and surrealistic. If you're a fan of the Rune Grammofon label, you should pick this one up.
