**Y** - four star Y
|
GPHCD102
Liz Kosack – synthesizers Dan Peter Sundland – electric basses Steve Heather – drums & electronics four star Y is a fully improvised, meticulously crafted, multilayered groove extravaganza from Berlin based master improvisers Liz Kosack, Dan Peter Sundland and Steve Heather. This album ties together high-level artistic improvising concepts with butt shaking groove fun. Throughout the album, the trio explores textures and moods from scratchy wailing to expansive synth landscapes to complex, yet intuitive counter rhythms and musical layers. The trio moves as a single organism, sometimes adding new layers of complexity, sometimes slowly shifting the mood, and sometimes radically jumping to the next chapter; never doubting the journey or where it is going. All tracks improvised by **Y** Cover by Liz Kosack Recorded July 2017 in G5 by Dan Peter Sundland Mixed by Dan Peter Sundland & Steve Heather Mastered by Joe Talia releases digitally and on CD September 20, 2024 |
Dan Peter Sundland - solo electric bass
|
GPHLP103
Solo Electric Bass is Dan Peter Sundland's first solo album. It is a musical self-portrait of his unique approach to the instrument, in which he summons sounds ranging from cello-like bowing, via melodic, quasi-double bass sounding pizzicato, to a multitude of percussive textures from his trusty, semi-acoustic, '60s Gretsch bass guitar. The music on the album was picked from three improvised live concerts in Berlin in late 2018 and early 2019, and gives the listener an aural window into Sundland's strong performances.
