Touch has released the 6-track LP “Dropsonde” by Biosphere, the ambient project by Geir Jenssen from Norway. You can listen to samples of three tracks at boomkat.com. A cd version of ‘Dropsonde”, with a different tracklist, follows in January.
“Dropsonde isn’t a soundtrack like the interwoven Substrata nor an episodic journey in the way that Autour de la Lune is. Here Geir Jenssen is pushing new directions towards the jazz colours of Miles Davis and Jon Hassell, whilst re-invigorating the pulse and projection of his signature sound: a hypnotic combination of pleasure and dread.”
