Om utgivelsen
The Scandinavian trio Miman, consisting of multi-instrumentalists
Andreas Røysum, Hans P. Kjorstad and Egil Kalman, have co-created
an exceptionally rich and diverse musical universe since their
forming in 2015.
“X-IV”, their first release since 2021, includes four very different
albums, and gives both old and new listeners the opportunity to get
to know some of the different musical landscapes in which Miman
are right at home.
It may seem a long way from the immersive electro-acoustic studio
landscapes on “IV”, to the transparent interpretations of Hildegard
von Bingen´s (b. 1098) music. Or from the patient and delicate folk
abstractions presented in collaboration with guitarist Fredrik
Rasten, to the freely improvised meeting with the British master
drummer Mark Sanders. However, Miman is an exceptionally
flexible unit, that moves with ease wherever the music needs it to.
