Per Nørgård // Expanding Space 2xLP

デンマークニューエイジの先駆者Per Nørgårdが、1987年にFønix Musikからカセットで発表した名作を同国再発専門レーベルInstitute for Danish Sound Archaeologyが2枚組ヴァイナルで再発。どっぷりと浸れる全5曲を収録。見開きジャケ仕様です。DLコード付属。

Originally issued in 1987 on a double cassette tape by Fønix Musik. 

These electronic pieces touches the meditative element of music, but more in a non-rhythmic (or free rhythmic) than a pulsating, minimalistic way. The music is often ‘streaming’ and the association to water is obvious, especially in Najads. Sometimes a sound recording of water (from Santa Cruz by the Pacific Ocean) is integrated, but most of the time different kinds of ‘water music’ and ‘water sounds’ are composed and recorded by me, via different electronic and acoustic instruments in my own studio. The idea is a music that could give a meditative experience, but also a music that could be used as ‘ambient’ or ‘background music’, without the disturbing elements – like in muzak and elevator music – of small discreet themes calling for your attention, but doing nothing with it…
