born 1958, kristiansand, norway.
have always been very interested in music, soundart & art generally.
i am a self-taught artist (graphics, painting, drawing & music).
played in rock / punk bands back in the 70's & 80's.
i work with very simple tools: a cheap microphone, minidisc, objects & cheap piezos, acoustic guitar, 4 & 12 string bass, and some lovely flutes made by my good friend bernhard günter.
i like improvising...
i'm inspired by my inner travels, and all what happens just outside our door.
on my site, you can see pictures of the view just outside our house, over the fjord.

Terje Paulsen - Landform
(self release)
3” CDR
"Now unfortunately sold out is this micro-release micro-cdr album by Norwegian composer Paulsen but luckily for y’all the very kind Mr. Paulsen has made it available as an mp3 release via rainmusic.free.fr/. This really is something you should all be very happy about as it really is a damn fine slice of drone music. Paulsen has a good ear for a mix and Landform is soft and sensual without being cloying or over-produced. He has avoided the dark ambient pitfall and instead concerned himself with making amorphous music that is worth listening to repeatedly."

Terje Paulsen - Septober
(Q-Tone qt01)
CDR
"This inaugural release on Q-Tone features the caustic soundscapes conjured by one Terje Paulsen. His mix of acoustic instrumentation and dense atmospherics makes for nail-biting listening as he weaves a tapestry of trepidation and discomfort in which to enfold the listener. The instrumentation is amorphous and the sounds are warm, although warm in a deep, dank, dark cellar kind of way which can never be a bad thing.
I'm struggling to write about this album because it's power isn't in it's boldness or it's grandeur but in the ease in which Paulsen generates a mood and then holds you immersed in it for the duration. Heartily recommended."
