Bits and pieces of my musical world:
Everything with Morton Feldman, Evan Parker, Steve Reich and Siegfried Palm. The early years of ECM, Joni Mitchell, and Todd Rundgren. The late John Coltrane. All recordings with Glen Gould - especially his radioshows and all his writings. The cello suites of Benjamin Britten, all symphonies by Ralph Vaughan William, the string quartets och Sjostakovitj. The fantastic music of Gillian Welch, John Fahey, Milton Nascimento, Joyce, Walter Ramsby, Clogs, Bell Orchestre, David Darling, Tape, Ralph Lundsten, Can, Steven Sondheim, Brad Mehldau and Brian Eno's "Before and after science". And don't forget the microtonal pianoworks by Ben Johnston...

The .. a super-song, a mega-composition, something that astonishes people, that makes them sob, laugh and rejoice. No “sophisticated” art but no cheap entertainment either. Take the best of pop, jazz, tango, opera, operetta, klezmer, soul, blues, minimalist music, virtuosic violin-music (Paganini, Wienawsky, Sarasate) and so on, or compose your own style. Everything is fine as long as the audience is crazy about it.
Concerning the playing technique the composition is expected to be sophisticated, challenging and unconventional. It is expected to combine new effects with innovative sounds and hot rhythms.

Föreställ dig att du flyter i en fontän av ljud som plötsligt skjuter iväg dig likt ett bowlingklot på väg mot strike. Så låter New Rose.
New Rose är Niklas Korssell och Gustav Nygren. De har skulpterat ljud tillsammans sedan tvåårsåldern. Deras pappa är Peter Brötzmann, deras mamma Patti Smith. New Rose är ett rockband. Framtiden blir historia första gången du upplever New Rose.
