RELEASE DATE

The Touch label releases the first solo live album by Norway's
Geir Jenssen
aka
Biosphere
. Recorded live at The Arnolfini, Bristol on October 27, 2007 by the doyen of environmental sound recordists,
Chris Watson
, using 2 x Sony ECM 77s with a Nagra P11 Ares flash card recorder, and from desk to hard drive. The recording was mixed, edited and mastered by Touch stalwart
BJNilsen
in Berlin during March of 2009. This concert was part of
Touch 25 Live
, which also featured a performance of
Storm
(by Chris Watson & BJNilsen). This is Biosphere's sixth release for Touch. In the early 1990s, he was a pioneer of so-called "ambient techno," but since then, he has refined his sound into something more magnetic and enduring. His last album,
Dropsonde
, wasn't a soundtrack like the interwoven
Substrata
, nor an episodic journey in the way that
Autour de la Lune
is. It pushed new directions towards the jazz colors of
Miles Davis
and
Jon Hassell
, while re-invigorating the pulse and projection of his signature sound: a hypnotic combination of pleasure and dread. Here, Geir Jenssen takes this further, incorporating samples of field recordings by
Jony Easterby
and trumpet by
Anders Karlskås
, invoking a sparser, more arresting sound. A landmark release for Biosphere -- his first solo live album -- heralding new beginnings without jettisoning the past.
