Visit product page →The third album from these two excellent musicians was recorded live at various European venues, although the high level of musicianship, focus on detail and high recording quality could easily lead you to think it would be a meticulously assembled studio recording.
With Rest At Worlds End the duo continue their adventurous explorations of abstract grooves and atmospheric moods. But don't expect any live versions of previous studio tracks, these are all brand new tracks, 11 on the CD and 18 on the limited double LP edition.
Ståle Storløkken is a founder member of Supersilent, Elephant9 and Terje Rypdal's Skywards and is probably the most interesting and versatile electric keyboard player operating on the Norwegian scene at the moment.
Drummer and composer Thomas Strønen is a regular member of Food, Maria Kannegaard Trio and Parish, his quartet with the superb Swedish pianist Bobo Stenson.

Sold outVisit product page →Ha! is the fourth Humcrush album, this time with the most welcome addition of singer Sidsel Endresen. Having toured together for a couple of years, they finally recorded some shows last year.
This album was beautifully recorded in concert at Willisau Jazzfestival and is a great example of the duo's seamless interaction as well as Endresen's ability to improvise, listen, react, adapt and surprise, fully showing that we are dealing with one of the world's leading vocal improvisors, coming from years of experience from solo work and collaborations with musicians like Bugge Wesseltoft, Helge Sten, Christian Wallumrød, Rolf Wallin, Jan Bang, Håkon Kornstad and Stian Westerhus.
And Humcrush is still Ståle Storløkken (keyboards) and Thomas Strønen (drums and electronics).

Visit product page →The second album from the duo that is Thomas Strønen (Food) and Ståle Storløkken (Supersilent), now simply calling themselves Humcrush, after the title of their debut from 2004.
Hornswoggle is an alltogether more developed, varied and subtle collection of tracks, going from downright funky to abstract grooves from Thomas while Ståle is in his most melodic and atmospheric mood. Comparable to Supersilent's most structured and accesible moments, this is an excellent addition to the catalogue.
