Synopsis
Album Description
"A rare conflagration of sensitivity, speed, and sonic pleasure." - CODA Northern Stains is the inevitable collaboration between experimental phenomenon Carlos Giffoni and Spunk/Fe-Mail members Maja Ratkje & Hild Tafjord. This trio finally met when Giffoni booked Fe-Mail to headline a night of his genre-defining, Brooklyn-based, three-day No Fun Festival in 2005. Early in 2006, Giffoni boarded a flight to Norway, and Northern Stains was born in Spunk's Oslo studio. Individually and together, Carlos Giffoni and Fe-Mail make records that are rich, detailed, dense, and complex, constantly straddling the line between improvised noise and modern composition. It's this attention to detail and warmth that make Fe-Mail & Carlos Giffoni such celebrated artists and kindred collaborators. Northern Stains is an absurd combination of live sounds, feedback, and hilarious sampling with a genuine sentimental touch that nods towards both the northern glaciers and the beauty and brutality of nature. Tomorrow's music today.
