“Each album always starts with a feeling thatI try to shape into sound this time around the feeling was landing ( after my last albumUtopiawhich was all island in the clouds element air and no bass ) on the earth and digging my feet into the ground it was also woven into howI experienced the “now” this time around. 7 billion of us did it together nesting in our homes quarantining being long enough in one place that we shot down roots. my new album “Fossora” is about that. It is a word i made up, it is the feminine of fossore ( digger, delver, ditcher ) so in short it means “she who digs” ( into the ground ) so sonically it is about bass , heavy bottom-end , we have 6 bass clarinets and punchy sub.

Iwould like to especially thank Bergur Prisson and Heba Kadry side project , El Guincho , Hamrahl Choir , Soraya Nayyar , clarinet sextet Murmuri , Siggi String Quartet Ensemble , Emilie Nicolas , serpentwithfeet, Viibra and last but not least : Sindri and Da.
