New release from Josef & Erika. They celebrate 10 years as a band, and this is their 3rd release. We mixed and cut some vocals in my studio earlier this year. Check it out, wonderful songwriting, singing and playing. And heavy abuse of spring reverbs aswell…
Just wanna mention Edition Records. They release great records, and I have recorded and/or mixed a few of them:
Adam Waldmann’s Kairos 4tet. The new album ‘Statement of Intent’ is due for release in the UK on 4th April 2011. Adam and I just recently mixed it here in Copenhagen, on my new RME hardware. Very nice indeed.
Marius Neset will release ‘Golden Xplosion’ in April 2011 and will be touring extensively throughout 2011 with his new band featuring Django Bates, Jasper Høiby and Anton Eger. Album mixed at my place.
Phronesis live CD ‘Alive’ (Edition) was chosen as ‘JAZZ ALBUM OF THE YEAR’ in both JAZZWISE and MOJO magazines. I keep on bragging about this one….
Fall 2010 wrap-up:
Drott & Marsk are getting a nice buzz, and airplay, since their cassette release (I mixed it)
Tante Andante´s new record was released.
Falgren/Busk Duo won no less than 4 (!) Danish Music Awards. Best Folk New Artist, Best Folk Album, Best Composer, Best Player. I recorded and mixed the album.
Reviewer´s are still raving about the Pronesis Live Album. BBC Music Mag says:”Although a live recording, the sound quality and balance is exemplary” ***** I say thank you.
Astrid Nora´s new album was released.
I aqquired an AKG BX-20, the holy grail of spring reverbs.
In preparation for mix work in december, there will be more studio upgrades coming up. Stay tuned.
UPDATE: Tour finished. Everybody happy. Check this 6-star review (In danish)

Fabian Kallerdhal – Petter Eldh – Anton Eger
Super-Scandinavian collaboration. Spisa.org digs it: “en glad, tät och gött basig skiva med musik av Eldh, Kallerdahl, Neil Young, Boards of Canada och så klart Michael Jackson…”
Get it here: hoob.net
Jasper and the boys made it again. Superlatives from the press: “If it’s a hallmark of a good album that it makes you want to climb into your hi-fi, then this is indeed a good album” – Review jazzbreakfast.com
Front page on JazzWise magazine. Not bad.
Check jasperhoiby.com for more great reviews.
