| Opplysninger | "The starting point for this music was a series of field recordings made on the island Hankø, in Norway. The field recordings, which captured birds chirping, raindrops, leaves brushing etc., were later transformed into more tonal sounds reminiscent of granular synthesis. The sounds were then structured into short phrases, playing alongside a Korg ms20-mini synthesizer.The resulting four tracks are driven by evolving, melodic sequences that repeat against a backdrop of texture and noise.Erik Mowinckel is a photographer and musician.His themes in photography include abstraction, mystery and minimalism. His motifs are often centered and with a simplified background, sometimes seen from such a short distance that they become unrecognizable. Some motifs are repeated, including birds, buildings and textiles, but the essence does not necessarily lie in what is photographed, but rather the character and importance of the motifs when they are photographed.As a musician, he is concerned with how sound can relate to different states and emotions we can experience as human beings, as well as how sound and music can affect us and color the environment we hear music in. He works with soundscapes where melody and development are central, but also within more rhythm-based genres where he draws inspiration from various branches within electronic music" - Utgiver
