Editorial Reviews

"Swedish producer Johan Agebjörn recreates his childhood's soundtrack with uncanny precision, nailing not just the proper drum sounds, but also fluttering keyboard harmonies that weep with wintry joy." -- SPIN (for Disco Romance)

The highly-anticipated solo ambient debut of acclaimed Swedish electronica producer Johan Agebjörn evokes human warmth in a wintry landscape, expertly juxtaposing intimacy and isolation.

Agebjörn is the composer and producer behind disco sensation Sally Shapiro. Her album Disco Romance (written and produced by Agebjörn) was nominated for Album of the Year in the electronic/dance category for the 2008 Plug Awards.

This review is from: Mossebo (Audio CD)

Subtitled "Featuring Lisa Barra," Mossebo is a mix of ambient soundscapes enveloping Lisa Barra's wordless vocals, forming a set of drifting dreams to chant to, or a drifting set of chants to dream to, whatever your pleasure. Agebjörn would fit right into the ECM set of cerebral jazz composers, if he were to add a melody anywhere. Instead, he'll combine the roar of train wheels with a choir, or airy stutters with shuffling drones. Shadowy, northern-light, shape-shifting of sounds make a fascinating listen for fans of Steve Roach, early Tangerine Dream, and those open to the extended Nordic nights.
