Mattias Risbergs Mining: Krantzkommun (CD)

The new record Krantzkommun completes the Mining trilogy, which has been written and performed as three separate acts over a period of four years. The composer and lyricist Mattias Risberg has dug deep in his mind and brought up memories from the environment where he grew up - the mine area of Bergslagen in Sweden - and created a dreamlike world of suggestive rhythms and sparkling sounds. The band, an extended version of the original setting, invites you to a journey underground where intricate compositions meet breathtaking improvisations.
