Description
Natten, which means The Night in Danish, draws inspiration from the end of day, that regenerative time under the constellations when our lives look different. Listeners might be quick to call it escapistthe music might be a reprieve from our busy lives. And while thats one way to experience Natten, theres also another, which has more to do with immersion. It offers us the chance to see whats around us as beautiful.
When it works for me, says pianist Morten McCoy, its pure meditation, pure prayer. Pure gratitude for simply being, without all kinds of jibber-jabber filling my thoughts. A sentiment that tells you everything about the feeling and nothing about the sound.
McCoy and the bassist Jonathan Bremer started making music together back in 2012 when they were still in school. At first the Danish duo played dub. Its hard to imagine that thats how they started when you listen to the ethereal sounds they make now, but the influence becomes clearer when you see them live: they insist on traveling with their own sound system.
Music for putting your hand into a pebbly stream, music for walking into traffic.
