Two tracks from
Øyvind Torvund: The Exotica Album
Wind Up Paradise Birds
Starry Night
Norwegian composer and improviser Øyvind Torvund’s audaciously playful suite re-imagines lounge music in collage form. Think dreamy, super-saturated, 1950s travel adverts, with a soundtrack of sugary strings, cartoon whistles, brass fanfares, and cheesy wind instruments. And then throw on a topping of abstraction, distortion, modern electronics, crazed percussion, and noise saxophone.
