Last year I produced the debut recordings by Cos Mosic, the solo project of Despereaux guitarist, Simen Trippestad. It was recorded over the course of a week in my studio at Dikemark, Norway, featuring band mate, Per Åsmund Reymert, on drums and myself on keys.
The first of those tracks is now released as a single, titled Oppvaska. It’s available to stream here.
The sessions were incredibly intense, working all day and night then having dinner at 2am, but the quality speaks for itself. I’ve been collaborating with these dear friends in one form of another for nearly 6 years but this is the first time we have recorded together. I’m happier with these recordings than pretty much any other I have ever done.
Special thanks to Kafe Hærverk for the mic loans and Lasse Marhaug for the tape echo, Nic James for the drum kit and Eivind Walberg for the plate reverb! I’m incredibly proud of this work and look forward to the other tracks coming out soon.
Until then, enjoy the single and watch this space…
