about

Sounds from an old wooden house situated in the rural North Norwegian countryside, as heard by a Norwegian and an Irelander.

Field recordings, found sounds, and Tetrax recorded on a Sony M-670 microcassette recorder, in Faksfjord summer 2022.

On Faksfjord the source material is cut up and rearranged utilizing an 8-bit hardware sampler, in Gravdal, Lofoten.

A collection of hiss and crackles, textures, and sound.

Fragsfjord involves breaking down the sounds found on the Faksfjord tapes to their smallest form and organising these sonic fragments using sections of the original recordings as a source of triggers, while recapturing them within a new space, in Munich.

'an album of abstract sound collage, bizarre tape manipulation, unnerving atmospheres, warbling tones, strange interweaving textures and raw crackling noise experimentation.
It's definitely not what you'd expect to hear when you listen to an album of field recordings from rural Norway, but it's utterly alluring and fascinating in its own unique way. A weirdly compelling and absurdly immersive listening experience.'
