Sonic Codex
''Sonic Codex'' is an album by Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset. Background This fourth solo album ''Sonic Codex'' from Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset incorporates concepts from his earlier albums, restates, elaborates and reinforces them to generate a genuine masterpiece, that might be a defining moment in both Aarset’s career and the history of Jazzland. ''Sonic Codex'' puts forward rules of engagement that Aarset collaborate with the audience, and very deliberately quotes and redefines the musicality that made up his previous three albums, “Electronique Noire”, “Light Extracts”, and “Connected”, yet also points his way forward: it is an innovative present that simultaneously summarizes the past, and predicts the future. Reception The review of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet awarded the album 4 stars (dice). Track listing #«Sign Of Seven» (6:26) Bass clarinet – Hans Ulrik Baritone guitar & celesta – Audun Erlien #«Quicksilver Dream» (6:23) B ...
