Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

Omschrijving | The first signing on Is it Jazz? Records, the new
sub-label of Karisma Records, is the Norwegian
instrumental quartet Soft Ffog. And what a perfect
first signing for a prog rock label going into
vast and scary jazz territory. As the band says
themselves: Ever wondered what it would sound like
if Jimi Hendrix joined Deep Purple pursuing to
sound like Gentle Giant, and then failing
miserably because of too much jazz consumption
lately? Didn’t think so, but anyhow Soft Ffog´s
sound is unique, and draws parallels to the
aforementioned acts in somewhat style,
compositions and aesthetic, but is more rooted in
jazz with their prolonged solos and
improvisations.
Soft Ffog started as one-off gig commissioned by
Kongsberg Jazzfestival in 2016. Despite the
success of this event, the band did not get the
momentum it needed to be a proper working band.
This combined with the busy schedules for the
musicians in other bands and projects, the band
only played gigs every now and then. These gigs
did help refining their sound, so bandleader Tom
Hasslan decided in 2020 that the time was right to
record their first album with all Hasslan
compositions.
The band consists of band leader Tom Hasslan
(Krokofant) on guitars, Axel Skalstad (Krokofant)
on drums, Trond Frønes (Red Kite, Grand General)
on bass and Vegard Lien Bjerkan (WIZRD) on
keyboards. The album was recorded at Studio
Paradiso with Christian Engfelt as engineer and
producer. The combined members of Soft Ffog have
probably played with everyone in the Norwegian
jazz scene, but here they do their own thing and
they’re combining the sounds from King Crimson
with Terje Rypdal, Deep Purple with Pat Metheny,
and it sounds awesome!
Beware of blistering guitar solos, gnarly bass,
crazy drums and supersonic keyboard playing! |
