      Bergen preview article

      Really interesting article about the Storløkken collaboration so far.

      Mountain & Taifun? Slightly jealous, to say the least :lol:

        Nice article, confirming that the "2 albums worth" of material Bent's mentioned earlier would indeed be one album of Orgelfest music and one album with new songs.

          A review from Kulturguffen – not too happy about the sound.

          #21612

          Review in Bergens Tidene (Norwegian).

          I thought the concert was amazing, but I think the sound really depended on where you were standing.

          Edit: The vocals were not very "clear". They sang quite well but the lyrics were hard to comprehend.

            Kulturguffen – that's me. The sound really annoyed me, and quite a few of those I talked to after the show. From what BT and OtherFool say, I probably should have moved around a bit, to see if it was better elsewhere.

            And OtherFool – I agree that they sang quite well.

            We were standing on the bottom step of the "gallery", ie. just below the soundboard. I think that made the difference :) It was LOUD though!

              I'd like to point out that one should never judge the sound in a venue from only one position. Especially when writing reviews for people who weren't there. It's not really fair to the band, the mixing guy and the venue. :)

                Supernaut: like I said earlier, I probably should have moved around a bit. Mainly for my own enjoyment, but probably also, as you point out, to make sure that I (for once) knew what i was writing/talking about. But my legs are old and weary, so I decided to stay put.

                And it turns out that my ears must be old and weary, too. OtherFool: We must have been standing very close to each other – I was standing on the floor, right in front of the gallery.

                At Rockefeller last year I was extremely annoyed at the shot sound for 1h, then I moved 10 m further back and had great sound for the rest of the show. I think I was initially was standing in a spot where there was a tremendous constructive interference with the bass sound – at least that was all I could hear (it might also have been a destructive interference of the guitar frequencies). I is indeed wise to move around a bit if the sound is shit.

                  ah tell me about it. :(

                  and of course sometimes one gets into a bad sounding spot but with the best view. decisions… decisions…
