Bugge Wesseltoft, pianist, composer and pioneer of electronic jazz;Henrik Schwarz, one of the most sought after producers of electronic music
who has remixed stars from Michael Jackson to Ane Brun.Wesseltoft comes from a jazz background and has moved towards electronic music.
He started on the ECM label with Jan Garbarek, and later collaborated with club music legends like Laurent Garnier and Francois Kervorkian on

moving towards the jazz and improvisation. Henrik: “Bugge and myself are moving towards each other, there are these energies.”Bugge
explains: “This duo feels totally organic. We are creating music on the spot, both live and in the studio. With today’s electronic tools you can
really improvise with them, and Henrik is so clever with his stuff - he makes amazing music from scratch. He is doing a really kind of mellow
playing, which is great because we can make this spontaneous kind of music together. Henrik adds: “For me this Duo is like the first words in a
long conversation. The music that is coming out of this sounds very, very new and unheard to me - there is a lot to explore in the future. We
have a concept when we sit down. So we know it’s all different, but there’s a certain kind of frame for everything. There’s a starting point.” « hide |
