Leiranes, Marius
Langtidsperspektiv
A lot has been said about the "Nordic sound", whether it be jazz, progressive rock, electronica or extreme metal. Few have pinpointed their Nordic sound more precisely than Marius Leirånes, known from the Norwegian prog band Pixie Ninja. For his first solo project, he has chosen to tell through music the stories of his ancestral homestead, a small farm by the name of Leirånes. Combining elements of electronica, progressive rock, ambient and post-rock, 'Langtidsperspektiv' takes on a journey that ranges from the serene to the stormy, and from the tragic to the triumphant. To paint these aural pictures, Marius enlisted the help of musical friends from the Norwegian prog rock scene, featuring members from White Willow, Weserbergland, Panzerpappa and Suburban Savages.
