26th October, New Delhi: The multi-national ensemble trio of Andersen Shashank and Locketts album RØR is now available in music stores across India. Released by music label IndiaBeat, RØR is exclusively distributed by EMI India.
Danish musician Henrik Andersen has been inspired by the traditional carnatic trio of Flute, Veena and Mridangam. This album has near similar elements with Andersen on guitars, Shashank on Flute and Pete Lockett on percussions. Andersens guitar playing is stylised and crafts the melody on each track. Shashank shows why he is considered one of the most brilliant young flautists in the world. Pete Lockett plays with a restrained style fusing table rhythms with subtle ambient electronics to give the album a unique touch.The Danish word RØR has different meanings - one of which is touch.
When asked to describe the music on RØR, Andersen says:..
"Both Pete and I are from Europe and Shashank is from India. So the sound of the group is a mixture of east and west. The three of us all know the basic south Indian musical tradition and that was my main input for gathering these fine musicians. I guess I wanted to do a traditional trio thing really but when Pete showed up in the studio with his electronic gadgets it inspired me to "go with the flow" and do something spontaneous instead. One moment you might find a Alaap and a typical Carnatic sound, the next it transforms into a Beatles-like like tune. Really - it reminds me of being in a taxi in a modern big Indian city like Mumbai: one moment you are surrounded by landscapes of shiny glass and skyscrapers, and the next moment you are surrounded by funky old buildings and streetlife. One melody with so many contrast!!"IndiaBeat (www.indiabeat.in), which has had a popular presence on the Internet as an online radio station and MySpace since 2006, covers the genres of Indian classical, jazz, progressive rock and fusion music. The music label was launched in June 2008. RØR is their fourth release.......
