latest release: Meanwhile in Berlin (2024)

"Meanwhile in Berlin" ironically spends most of its time in Norway, wandering through forests and city streets with a microphone and questionable recording techniques. Artist Thomas WO (Thomas Winje Øijord) combines these found sounds - from hydrophones in frozen lakes to confused urban encounters - with synthesizers and live instruments, creating an experimental ambient collection that probably takes itself too seriously. The result is a rubato sound field where environmental recordings, electronic textures, and acoustic instruments drift and repeats, occasionally making sense. One track actually made it to Berlin, but the rest is pure Norwegian sonic overthinking at its finest.

Pre-release out on Bandcamp.

Now also available on Spotify and all large streaming platforms.
