I bought this CD 'unrest' yesterday, although it's kinda soft and a bit cheesy i like it. The first track 'Ghost Train' he did with Morgan Geist is really great imo. Any opinions..? |

Erlend Øye is the new Halvdan Sivertsen :P |

He's a bit like Herbert Smirtil mixed with Rupert Di Livio. His newer stuff is more like early Kristoph Kalsbergardia but it's worth investigating as well. |

what kind of music is it? I've been stumbling upon the name Erland Øye for the last couple of weeks (in music-related magazines and such)... but i've never actually heard anything by him. |

He is one half of the Kings of Convenience, an amazing duo i think! I've downloaded 'unrest' and listened a little bit, its pretty cheesey but that's his character i guess. i need to listen to it more, to see whether i should buy it or not. |

yeah as mylittlesister sais he's half of 'kings of convenience' (dunno if you're familiar with them?), i got their album 'quiet is the new loud' too, it's even more soft but still i like it this is a bit different though, it's him singing of (soft) electronic music (whereas 'kings of convenience' is just mostly guitar music (no electronics)) the album 'unrest' has 10 tracks which he made in 10 different cities with 10 different electronic artists (he travelled around from july 2001 till june 2002 and collaborated with these different local music makers (prefuse73, morgan geist etc.)) maybe provides some info check out 'ghost train' it's my fav of that album :) |

Hey, I just got this album too.. pretty goodish.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hm... hm... i never really liked what i heard from Kings of Convenience. But my brother has their cd, maybe i should borrow it from him or something. Soft electronic music might be alot better though :-) I shall look into it. Anyways, him being part of the Kings of C. explains all the mediacoverage at least, so thanks. |

somebody from the #IDM channel on undernet recommended this to me, it sounds very amatuerish, but I guess the guys voice is where he really shines, it's only good if you like his voice.. this was the guy who sung on Röyksopp's "Remind Me", right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, hes does some vocal for Röyksopp... Personally, i really like his voice, but the album as a whole is kind of bland. Ghost trains is good shit tho. Also, is the last track a collaboration with the guy from kraftwerk, or just someone who shares his name?? its not really apparent! But i'd surely say he's worth a listen. |
