Bjorn Torske - Kokning - out on Smalltown Supersound
Bjørn Torske - Kokning
(CD/Download) Smalltown Supersound STS196, 2010-11-15

This release takes avant-disco, weirdo-dub, post-punk, and quirky electronica - all elements found on his previous albums, Nedi Myra (released on Ferox in 1999), Trøbbel (released on Tellé in 2001), Feil Knapp (released on Smalltown Supersound in 2007) - and mixes them into the ultimate Bjørn Torske album.
Kokning was conceived between the release of Feil Knapp and the beginning of 2010.

The results were then edited into basic rhythm tracks which then were overdubbed with new series of recordings in similar manner. The album it involves more organic/ acoustic sound basics and less programmed patterns than Feil Knapp...
