about

Into A Mirror is the outcome of various sessions of improvisations done in Norway last September. Also is the confirmation that AQN is in fact a trio, counting with the presence and expertise of Mathis Dikkanen at the bass that provides an extra layer of musicality and improvisation. All together, they composed an irregular piece that lasts for almost 30 minutes, the whole recording apart from being an exploration and a dialogue between synthesisers and field recordings has a strange taste of the previous works by AQN. If we listen to previous works, we will find out that Into A Mirror is a decomposed A Quiet Norway piece merging down with the local component or attachment to the country that provides field recordings.

Finally the piece evolves to many different paths, as some sort of journey through Fiords and misty valleys A Quiet Norway manages to surprise us one more time with a twist on its own genre. Probably the best achievement could be to introduce the improvisational character that provides freshness and dynamism to a dense and droney project.

Enjoy it! as they did while recording it,
