Concert: Mars, Oslo.
We warmed up for "Palace of Pleasure" on "Mars", Oslo
14 february, Henning played percussion and drums. The response was good,
but mixed. We got some reactions for being jazzy, especially because we
had included Tomas Berg on saxophone on the 2nd last song.
Concert:
Kunstnernes Hus, Oslo.
26 february we played at "Kunstnernes Hus", Oslo in connection
with "Fellessentralen", on "Origami Republika´s documentation
installation". We played on our old analogue synths; ARP Odyssey and
Korg MS-20, Henning played percussion and toy piano. As playback we used
a nature-recording from Northen-Norway. The music turned out to be very
special for us to do, but the response was good.
Concert: Mir, Oslo.
Our next concert was at "Mir", Oslo 22 april. Henning played
percussion and drums. The response was very good, maybe because we had
turned more floating and ambient again.
The summer and fall went by mostly working with new material. The co work
with Henning stopped, mostly because we didn't get any gigs. But we continued
the idea of building space around rhythms. We didn't put in so many details
as earlier, but instead we used long samples and more complex rhythm patterns.
We worked as before via MIDI and internal sequencer. We didn't have a
plan for releases, but agreed on making enough songs and at a given time
take a selection for release. Late fall we borough an 8- track Adat recorder,
and started recording the songs we liked the most to tape.
