Syntax TerrOrkester is anno 2009 a five piece band (at least) consisting of good people performing with guitars, vocals (both improvised and local language), drums, bass and synths/samplers/horns + some other sound making tools.
Influentially it can be described as having the energy of punk music, the play and improvisation of jazz and the structure of classical music. In other words catchy, experimental and psychedelic!

stage.'
---------
Henning Severud, NRK: 'Syntax TerrOrkester is the sound of something delightfully energetic and undefinable. This is challenging music for body and mind'

Ompakara med selveste Benny Borg på laget, har spilt inn ny og heftig versjon av den legendariske Balladen om Morgan Kane.
Det 12 manns store Elverumsorkesteret med Balkansound og patent på Gangsterpolka , har denne gangen kastet seg på Mariachiompa genren, hvor den Mexicanske Mariachitropmeten kommer til sin rett.
Ompakaras fele høres denne gangen ut som en Marimba , banjoen er bytta ut med stringswing flamenco gitar, og det trente øre vil høre et godt gammeldags 70 talls stueorgel vugge med.
Elverum mannskor preger et av Norges mest brukte refreng; Morgan Kane var hans navn. Kontakt.; Ivar Nergaard, 91793129, ivar@ompakara.no Harde fakta:
Morgan Kane trekker på 1/5 dels sekund
Morgan kane trekker over 1000 ganger iløpet av balladen om Morgan Kane.

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...
Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?
