When Jason Moran agreed to appear as Arist in Residence he came on-board with a strong wish to work with some Norwegian musicians. High on his wish-list was musician and "electronica guru" Jan Bang. Jan immediately accepted - YES!, when asked to collaborate with Jason.


Jason Moran has previously worked quite a bit with sampling as well as mixing pre-recorded music and sounds from different sources with live music, and now he gets to meet and work with one of our very best electronica musicians whom has specialized in live-sampling and remixing.
Jan Bang was, for many years, a prominent record producer before concetrating on his own music and collaborating with musicians from various genres, as well as his own festival "Punkt".
In Norway he is best known for his close cooperation with musicians such as Nils Petter Molvær, Arve Henrisken and Sidsel Endresen. Internationally he has made his mark with Dhafer Youssef, Jon Hassel and, last but not least, David Sylvian.
This is going to be a truly special meeting of two playful and exploring masters, each with their own tradition and both with a lot in common.
