about

S O L A R - Things We Found, But Left Behind
12" on Rundgång Rekords, February 2019

"Jonas Pedersen and Magnus Borgkvist Johansson have been preparing for this moment for a decade. Being best friends, they’ve relentlessly been trying to weld their different musical universes into one via excursions into a vast array of different genres, but to no avail. Until now. With S O L A R, the duo has cut the Gordian knot and created a new universe from scratch. In this universe the pitfalls of traditional genres don’t exist. Instead, one is reminded of future-thinking rock groups experimenting with new possibilities of electronic music in the 60’s and 70’s. Bubbling mono-synths and hefty pads are mixed together with expressive drums, structure meets passion, thoughtful melodies merge with epic rock soundscapes. It’s as uncompromising as it is refreshing in a world where everything is divided and labeled. In the words of both Richie Hawtin and Taylor Swift: Call it what you want!"

Helena Arlock Wahlberg - Cello on “Dream Beach”.
Rasmus Alkestrand - Saxophone on “Things We Kept - But Shouldn’t Have”.

Recorded in Malmö, under ritual circumstances, August / September 2018 by S O L A R.
Mixed and Mastered by Joakim Lindberg at Studio Sickan, Malmö - October 2018
Artwork by Daniel Christensen.
Thank you Marie, Aleksandra, Joakim, Dennis & Daniel.
