about
The wistful Den Franske Gitaren, is a lugubrious soul-jazz piece with drum & bass leanings featuring Bergen based MC and vocalist Aich.
“As with many of my tracks, whilst preparing for the album, this was supposed to be an instrumental piece. Nevertheless, my sublime co-producer, Eirik Blåsternes, suggested sending the track to several vocalists, and we ended up with two major choices - Aich (Andreas Hammersvik) and Martin Halla.
Aich is a true underground Bergen rap artist, DJ and singer. After spending some evenings in his studio, listening to his new soul/funk trio projects, I asked him to record falsetto harmonies that were suitable for my sketch. This all happened in the midst of Covid.
I then invited one of the most serious players in Bergen, Alexander von Mehren, to record some French 60's pick bass business as well as laying down a great studio session with the drummer, Ivar Thormodsæter.”

Great album! A crossover jazz-r'nb-african trip from continent to continent. London does it again. Nyubian Twist with more jazz overtones. John Woodward
