NEWS

- The legendary live album "Duo (1977)" by free jazz duo Stefan Wistrand & Peter Olsen was reissued in November 2023. Recorded at Huset in Örebro in 1977 and originally released on composer Leo Nilsson's shortlived label ViaKassett in 1978. For the cogniscenti there will be a very limited CD edition. Listen at Spotify! The album has got some attention:


"... throughout this is brilliant free jazz made by two independent musicians who work together in a great way."

”Isolated invention in a scene that was heading towards complacency and commercialism, valiant instances of creativity like these preserved slices of innovative music until its recognition as part of the tradition could once again be confirmed.”
JazzWord, June 2024 (Canada)

"Almost fifty years old, it is young, boisterous and rebellious - and more in the moment than much of the new. Time is nothing."

"A time document from a time when there wasn't much such music played in the country at all, especially not in Örebro, but also music that, thanks to its power and joy of playing, feels just as relevant today!"

- In the works is a solo album by Stefan Wistrand made in an electronic environment. Working title "Stängt" ("Closed").


- The Electric MZ's latest album "Tales of Trees" is now released digitally. Avaliable on most platforms. But the utmost listening experience is of course the vinyl version of the album. Available in a limited 180 g edition. See under "Order/Contact" how to get it. Here we may cite from some fine reviews of "Tales of Trees": 

“It is evocative and ongoing music, beautiful, inviting and atmospheric, which puts one in a pleasant state. But also, music that can work in a club environment and encourage dancing. A musical journey that you need now when darkness falls outside the window and when the world outside can feel so bleak.”

Jazz/Orkester Journalen 2022/6

 

“Unlike in traditional jazz, no space is left for the musicians to make solo outbursts, but everyone submits to a common, "blended" sound. The rocking rhythm lulls the listener into a meditative mood that seems to stop time and generates a kind of eternal music, which may recall Nik Bärtsch's Ronin. Some may find that there is too little happening, others will let themselves be enveloped by the music and embark on a mental journey with an unknown destination.” 4 out of 5 rating.

Kulturdelen, November 30, 2022


"Fun to once again take part in an organic flow where groove, moods and long solos get a lot of space. In this way, the group joins the pioneering era of the genre with greats such as Miles Davis and Weather Report. /.../ The result is quite evocative where the group dynamic celebrates triumphs, they have crackling energy between them where there is also plenty of room for swirling solos."

Lira Musikmagasin, 2023/1
