What we say

What the label says:

Fredrik Ness Sevendal has been a part of the experimental music scene in Norway for around 10 years and play in bands like DEL, Slowburn, Kobi, We Snakes, and Norwegian noise orchestra. Both lo-fi pop, soundscapes, free-noise and various projects for improvised music. As a solo artist he has released a couple of 7"'es, a CD-r and a collaboration Lp (with Bill Wood) and can be found on various compilations. "No foly Bow" is his first full-lenght cd and might be a little step out of the obscurity. Much of his work is based around free-noise and guitar-drones. There is drones on this cd too, though this record has got a more various and melodic content. Some songs are humble and quiet guitartunes while others are filled with strumming accoustic instruments and layers of fiddle-like sounds inspired by the repetative tunes of Norwegian folk music. There is also a couple of more melodic lo-fi pop tracks, but with only occasional vocal sounds. Common for the songs on this cd is the homespun production, the love of guitar and other string-instruments, knobturning and effetcs. Most of the songs have seen the light of day trough improvisation. Fredrik has also collaborated with people like New Zealand guitarist Bill Wood (1/3 octave band), Makoto Kawabata (Acid Mothers Temple..etc.), Mitsuru Tabata (Zeni Geva etc.), and Mark Francombe (Ex-Cranes/Uncle Ian), Lasse Marhaug, Crazy River..among others. This is an Apartment records/Humbug records joint-release.
