About

The music is inspired by philosophy of mind and the relationship between the conscious and unconscious. My goal was to present a textured, enigmatic and layered sonic world to get lost in.

Floating Body / Diving Mind is full of longing, escapism, beauty and hurt. It suggests a sense of alien otherworldliness, yet is familiar in its intimacy. From the dreamy choir in "Ataraxia" to the massive rhythmic buildup in "Samsara", this is an album for anyone ready to take a trip to the other side.

The album was composed, produced and mixed by me. It was made by reworking improvised sessions recorded in Trondheim and later finished in Oslo. It was produced in home studios, NTNU Mustek and Metronopolis.
