Description/Reviews
The Tronosonic Experience represents a departure from Losen Records rooster of jazz artists, and is a powerful outing of instrumental rock. The band describes their music as punk-jazzavant- rock, and is inspired by artists as diverse as Ornette Coleman and Black Sabbath, John Coltrane and King Crimson, Cecil Taylor and Terje Rypdal. The Tronosonic Experience's drummer Ivar Loe Bjørnstad and bassist Per Harald Ottesen lay Down a strong foundation of rock riffing over which the saxophonist Ole Jørgen Bardal and guitarist Øyvind Nypan improvise freely. The mood of the album is varied, and was strongly affected by the huge waves of the ocean and the sheer force of the winter storms raging outside the recording studio's windows. The music ranges from the fast paced and hard-hitting tracks Die Streif and The Crossing, via the slowly evolving thunder of Maelstrom and A Quiet Flame, to the quieter vibes of No Country for Young Men and Light as a Feather, Heavy as a Lead Balloon. The closer, Catching the Nile Perch, nicely sums up the album.
