about

"Optimism In Slow Motion" is the 11th solo album by Norwegian composer and artist Anders Brørby. It was created and recorded over a period of seven years , and in many ways it feels like a summary of the various musical paths Brørby has been through with his previous albums during these years. The basics of these recordings often started as something very different, then slowly taking shape into what would eventually become a clear and pure vision . At some point it became clear that the organic recordings would form the base of this music. Acoustic recordings, often picked apart - then gently being rebuilt into new shape after slowly experimenting and improvising with laptop and modern electronics. This music is not meant to be cold or distant, but warm and close - demanding attention and repeated loud listening to discover the melodies and details within. Much of the music was written and recorded during warm summer evenings, and for Brørby this is music for those fuzzy and hypnotic indian summer nights. The nights that become day without anyone noticing. But "Optimism In Slow Motion" is not music as a tool to increase an already existing specific feeling or colour. This is music which demands to provide its own colours and feelings. In that sense, this music can be many things- but for its creator it's first and foremost music that has been the soundtrack to many years of musical searching and exploring, and at the same time - gently and slowly shaped and curated music, as an answer to this search and musical journey.
