Bergljot – “Solen Avloser Regnet Som Avloser Solen” – [Sofa]

billiejoe   7/30/2014   12-inch, A Library

Five track LP from Czech-Norwegian trio self-identified as free jazz but that is up for debate.
Piano, bell, and plucky strings with clangy percussion. Bassy.
Side A is four tracks. It has a high pitch start and gets buzzy warbly next to wind instruments.
Side B is a side-long journey of creaky industrial and noise with high frequency crunchy scratchy and plucky nuggets.
Bergljot has been known previously as the Vojt??ch Proch??zka Trio playing modern jazz classic compositions by Ornette Coleman, Herbie Nichols, Paul Motian as well as
Proch??zka???s originals.
