Critical Reception

The Leif

The Leif is an electric guitar duo from Oslo. A self-titled debut album containing ten melody driven tracks is out at Simlas produksjoner (CD, streaming, download and vinyl). Check out the duo's website.

Mugetuft

Mugetuft is an audio/visual collective, exploring the relationship between live sound and live visuals. The project’s main idea is that the visual and audible means of expression shall be independent and at the same time inter-dependent of each other in order to achieve a tight and organic integration of sound and image. In Mugetuft audio should accompany the visuals as much as visuals accompany the audio. Check out this side of my work at mugetuft.no

Hellstenius / Øgrim

Henrik Hellstenius and Tellef Øgrim have been playing together in different bands and projects since the 1980ties. Now they have gotten together to explore sounds and sentiments in their combined bags, instruments, circuits and the general condition of weather, the day's form and the current position of stars and planets in this improvised duo. Henrik: electronics, Tellef: guitars. Watch concert video HERE
