Live electronics through the lens of folklore and trance.
Two artists diving deep into tradition, only to rewire it from the inside out.
Armed with a modular synth and a deep reverence for the tonal languages of Swedish and Norwegian folk, Egil Kalman dissolves the border between tradition and experiment. His live sets are meditative yet tactile — flowing through pure-tuned intervals, looped motifs and acoustic illusions, like a Hardanger fiddle waking up inside a machine. No samples. No safety net. Just live electricity channeling ancestral sound.
Kalman's upcoming album Nordafjells (Supertraditional) focuses on the rugged Setesdal tradition, refracted through minimalist composition and soulful improvisation. This follows two celebrated releases on iDeal Recordings, where the boundaries of folk and electroacoustics are stretched and reimagined.
Support: Rasmus Alkestrand
Opening is Rasmus Alkestrand, a shape-shifter working at the intersections of sitar, synths and spiritual noise. His solo work fuses Indian ragas, ambient techno and dub-inflected krautrock, often anchored by slow-evolving drones and analog pulse. Whether solo as Triangular Waves (his latest, Matriarch, built entirely on the Moog Matriarch) or embedded in projects from True Grit to Ebbot Lundberg’s live band, Alkestrand brings a constantly morphing intensity — hypnotic and handmade.
