More Info "Permeated with the duality of raw Nature & harbour, urban artefacts, Norwegian Terje Paulsen fathoms his close surroundings to forge highly sentient organic sound pieces, based on field recordings, the visceral use of real instruments & found objects... By doing this, he depicts sort of musical vignettes which are pure snapshots of Life... These are intensely personal soundscapes, reflecting physical & mental states in an almost cathartic way... Terje, like many artists fuelled by the same essential motivations is a "ferryman", a go-between, freezing moments of rare intensity & exhilaration... He has been published by himself, a plethora of netlabels (CON-V, Homophoni, Q-Tone, Rain Music, Resting Bell, Tecnonucleo...), a few labels (Q-Tone, Tibprod...) and pops up on several compilations (Mandorla, Ripples, Trente Oiseaux...)... "Coastline", a sequel to "Horisont" (MS58) is another deep elemental drift... Along the rock faces, half sunken, we float away, swayed in the agitation of murky waters, pulled this way and that by the dominant stream... Always on the verge, impermanent amidst the liquid mutations, we fade, like washed out memories... Below, reversed out, the song of a lonely anchor, scraped metal sighs, submarine ringing tones... "Coastline", our interior sea, a waterline within, in touch with the Unseen... " [label info] www.mysterysea.net
