Fold Unfold is the debut album by violinist Katrine Grarup Elbo from the Danish collective We like We. As a solo artist she steps out from the safety of group performance and presents a vulnerable portrait using only her classical training and analogue electronic setup.
Peaceful scenarios of natural beauty that hover like calm mist over cold streams are interrupted by spine chilling forces. Naked passages and electroacoustic electronics together create ripples in time as the pieces mold into flowers reaching for the outer edge. Elbo summons the most time stopping affairs using only the most basic of ingredients, as a true master. Clouds of uncertainty and reason echoes infinitely into the ether as she moves in and out of acoustic and manipulated sonic landscapes. Imagine Jocelyn Pook´s captivating Masked Ball piece from Kubrick´s Eyes Wide Shut with its clouds of mystery, suddenly turning unmasked and fragile, as if abruptly standing vulnerable in the shadows listening only to the reverb of the room and ones own breath.
The album was recorded and mixed at Saal 3, Funkhaus, Berlin with Antonio Pulli. In the 29 minutes runtime, we are presented with transportations through silent, almost Baroque sounding pieces towards overpowering, processed alterations of her violin that vibrates like echoes springing off the stars. A stunning debut with all its natural purity and intimacy.

Danish pop band Lukas Graham released a new song “Happy For You” from their upcoming fourth studio album on May 14, 2021.
The track was written by Samantha Ashley DeRosa, Morten Ristorp, JP Clark, Joe Kirkland, Samuel Wishkoski, Lukas Forchhammer, David LaBrel, David LaBrel, Pete Kelleher and Tom Barnes. Produced by TMS.
The accompanying music video was directed by Phillip Jacques and Daniel Manicus.
The song follows up “Where I'm From”, which is include on their documentary film “7 Years of Lukas Graham”.
Lukas Graham said of the song, “It's a song about the terrible 'what if the worst came to pass,' and we weren't together. I'd want you to be happy whatever that entails, and if I didn't want you to be happy, then was it ever real love? Or, was it just infatuation and desire? 'Happy For You' attempts to narrate the broken-heartedness of the breakup, acknowledging the difficulties and the struggle of the one 'left behind'.”
The new album is expected to be released later this year.

A retrospective of artworks by Danish artist øjeRum (Paw Grabowski) exploring the complex relationship of humans and plants. Extending far back into our joint evolutionary history our deep relationship with, and understanding of, plants has enabled us to harness their nutritional, medicinal, and aesthetic benefits. Plants are central to our well-being, not only as food, but also as key components of our cultures, religions, and medicines. Through a unique hand collage technique, this series delves deeply into man’s connection to the natural world. It is a surrealist herbarium that intertwines bodies, minds and nervous systems through the vastness of plants, vines and flowers species. The major global challenges we face also impact our relationship with plants; we must protect their biodiversity, which holds vital information and solutions that can help us to cope with these problems. Plants are the life line that sustain humans and animals, and this book is an homage to our shared history.

'Remember Rainbow Bridge’, the new album by Croatian Amor, is a homage to youth and the delicate metamorphosis that occurs as childhood trips into maturity. Focused on this tender flux, the songs on 'Remember Rainbow Bridge' are infused with the restless energy of adolescence and a dawning sense of mortality. From the sun-kissed title track, to the night burn and wet pavement of ‘Paper Birds’, monumental highs are shuffled with great lows that we perhaps feel most clearly and earnestly in those formative years.
Since the earliest collages committed to tape under the name of Croatian Amor, Loke Rahbek's alias has at every step gravitated towards constant discovery and experimentation. The sound collages are still present while the unity of each song's construction now often conceals the juxtapositions and overlapping edges. Employing a medley of diffuse electronic music traditions, fantastical synthetic worlds are evoked and while ‘Remember Rainbow Bridge’ heavily relies on rhythmic structures to propel the compositions, Croatian Amor continues to tend a highly textured field in his own inimitable way.
'Remember Rainbow Bridge' is a celebration of the liminal space between phases of life, the chrysalis of youth. It is a... record about coming to terms with our ever-changing place in the world, its title urging us to see the world with a child’s eye, to never forget the miraculous at play only an arm’s-length away.

Cologne-based That Night is finally back on Noorden with his new EP»Implause«.
6 tracks between a chillaxed after-hour in the zen garden of Lawrence Lek and riding a white 1983 Ford Escort Cabrio on serpentine roads. Surrounded by a warm breeze, the endless sea, and a feeling that something bad is about to happen. Heavily inspired by Twin Peaks, Neue Helvetica, and B-Movie-Soundtracks.
For the limited 10-inch-vinyl, we teamed up with Bonn-based artist Arno Beck, who did the beautiful artwork and the Risograph-printing. The edition of 30 is numbered and signed by the artist.

Svaneborg Kardyb's Tiny Desk (Home) concert was recorded in the countryside of Djursland, Denmark. "You have to drive for a while on a gravel road, and then you come to a lovely old house surrounded by hills and a stream on one side and a very flat landscape on the other, where you can see 10 miles away,". It's this place that inspired Svaneborg Kardyb's second album, Haven (or "garden" in English). "Haven celebrates places we like to be," the duo said.
Svaneborg Kardyb is composed of Nikolaj Svaneborg on the Wurlitzer, synthesizer and piano, and Jonas Kardyb on drums and percussion. Their instrumentation set-up is untraditional, with the drums and keys facing each other, a position that they play in on stage just as they do in Kardyb's kitchen and living room on this session. They open up their set with the title track from Haven, which begins with a quiet melody over an effervescent loop. The sound mimics the shimmy of leaves in the breeze.
