OG ØRKNER I RASENDE UDENFOR (2020)

A collaboration with poet Peter-Clement Woetmann. Woetmann reads four of his own poems and I have created piano-soundsculptures as accompaniment. On side A the poems refer to the Danish participation in the Afghanistan war. We see the war both from the soldier´s point of view and we glimpse into the horrifying future of war-technology. The entire of side B consists of one poem relating the dangerous voyages undertaken by immigrants crossing the Mediterranian. Released as vinyl and digital download available through bandcamp.

Tracklisting:

1. Hvordan har du det?
2. MAD MINUTE
3. Om fremtiden
4. Bag bakkerne, kysten

This album was co-produced with Kronstork.

With kind support from KODA, Dansk Komponist Forening and DJBFA.

KROPSBYGNING (2018)

This is the third Ghost Flute & Dice album. It´s back to the solo-piano-and-effects setup of the first album. But this time Im playing odd time-meters, putting nuts and bolts inside the piano, playing the strings with a drumstick and combining all this with some glitchy, cut-up effects. The idea is to emphasize the mechanical and dissonant parts of the piano sound itself. The cover was designed and produced by Connie Munch.

This album was released by Attenuation Circuit and Obsolete Media Objects.

MELODY IS GOD (2015)

The second album extending the piano with saxophone, guitar, vocals, violin and noisy soundscapes. Featuring performances by Danielle Dahl, Trine Odsgaard, Maria Diekmann, Ole Grøndal Jørgensen and Kristian Hverring. A kind of electronic chambermusic. Might take a couple of listens to find, but give it time and you will discover the melodies.

THE BUGAJ SESSIONS (2015)

Not exactly a Ghost Flute & Dice album. This is a record by a loose group of musicians called Problemes de Communication. On this album that means Ole Grøndal Jørgensen, Thomas Wernberg and myself. This is music for mindtwisting videoart by Thomas Bugaj, a guy I met while touring in the USA. Problemes de Communication has made music for several artfilms and silent movies but this is unfortunately the only studio recording with this group.

More beautiful artwork by Connie Munch.

TRIANGULERING

A video made in collaboration with the visual artist Jacob Juhl. The film has been screened at two artfilm festivals – in Hungary and England. But since then it has been living a quiet life far away from the internet and potentiel viewers. We are currently working on a more ambitious and weirder project. You should check out the other stuff Jacob Juhl makes. http://www.jacobjuhl.dk

MEDITATION ON THE METHODICAL DISORIENTATION OF MEMORY (2012)

A group of commissioned songs for the Lyd+Litteratur festival in 2012. The songs all combine piano and poetry of some kind. Using poems by Johannes Lund Madsen, Gertrude Stein and one old demented lady. I played the set at two concerts for the festival. I also made a studio-recording, but its just lying around on my harddisc. But the song “Fra Mig til Dig” was a concert-closer for a couple a years. Probably the best song I ever made. Thanks to Rasmus, Jan, Trine, Valentin, Peter-Clement, Lea and Jonathan.
