This week, we zap over to Norway to catch a conversation with producer Stian Balducci and pianist Kjetil Jerve about collaboration, jazz’s origins as a dancing music and their desire to make an “Improvised music of our age”. Their joint LP, Tokyo Tapes mixes drone, jazz and frequency-pushing sonics and I think its a stunning listen, and before you think that maybe these are some serious dudes, prepare for some surprising music confessions.
