RYMDEN Valleys & Mountains

Popis:

After their previous excursions into the outer cosmos - the highly acclaimed studio albums "Reflections And Odysseys", "Space Sailors" and the powerful live-album "Rymden+Kork" - the Norwegian jazz super-trio Rymden have returned to Earth with their new album, “Valleys and Mountains”. However, as one might expect from the trio of Bugge Wesseltoft, Magnus Ostrom and Dan Berglund, the music is not strictly earthbound - the inner cosmos, dreams and visions offer new spaces to explore, alongside bucolic rambles and treks. The instrumentation and techniques are once again diversified, the styles multiplied; yet all remains indisputably the music of Rymden. There is a dual sense of nostalgia and hope for the future, a feeling of rediscovery replacing loss. There is an awareness of the natural world and our place within it, the part it plays in our lives, and how our lives are simply part of something greater than ourselves. The homages to the natural world all share a childlike quality, a sense of joyful exuberance and freedom, unshackled from our materialistic digital world and its endless bombardment of unnecessary (dis/mis)-information. The album captures the many moods that excursions into natural landscapes create - the moments of revelation, dreams and wonder, exhaustion, sprightly lightness, admiration, peace, drama, meditation, tranquillity, humbleness and replenishment.
