fibo-trespo / anders gjerde:
a hoax. a scam. a phony
"Side one: Someone peels a two note riff out of an organ. Someone else
plonks away on a xylophone, a disconnected stream of notes. There’s some
slightly itchy synth-violin.
And then these hilarious blats of BBC Radiophonic
Workshop electronics. It’s all over in about six minutes. Nice. Sets the mood.
Side two: This is your more expected Fibo-trespo improv-splatter.
These guys are part of that wave of Norwegian noisic goodness that
Bruce Russell and co. were bigging up a couple of years back. One half of
Fibo-trespo is the ‘infamous’ Kjetil D Brandsdal. You might know him from
that heavy Noxagt trio who put out a record on Load (they must be hip,
Lightning Bolt are on that label too.) Kjetil put out some delightful solo
discs about seven years ago. His second self-released vinyl thing was
something else entirely. I haven’t really kept up since. Kjetil, you out there?
Sindre Bjerga is the other half of Fibo-Trespo. He’s a sweet guy, runs the
Gold Soundz label.
I got a tasty little package from the guy a while back with tonnes of Fibo-Trespo discs in it.
I like their approach: it’s totally unassuming
and organic, heavy when it needs to be, light when it can, they smear their
instruments over the walls and floor and then mess with the guts when
no-one’s looking. Like much of the Norway noise stuff it has a distinctive
spirit and mood that’s peculiar to their corner of the world. Unlike someof the Norway stuff, however, it’s actually damn good. One of the Fibo-Trespo
CDRs comes in a detourned Iron Maiden CD cover and if that ain’t good
I don’t know what is.
Anders Gjerde runs the Humbug label who has also documented some
great sounds on CDR. Including the most recent Continental Fruit title.
What he’s doing here, who knows?"
