Neutral - (2014) Grå Våg Gamlestaden LP

 

Omlott – MLR 004

Gothenburgers’ Dan Johansson (Sewer Election) and Sofie Herner’s Neutral is the product of Sofie’s instruments and voice, and Dan’s manipulation and reel-to-reel technique. After previously making music together, in 2013 they had the idea to start compiling the recordings to make an LP. Originally released as a cassette edition of 25 on Ingen Våg.

Grå Våg Gamlestaden was released in the fall of 2014, with strong themes of a certain kind of bleakness, but with a wry smile, closely relating to the area of Gamlestaden. The title “Grå Våg Gamlestaden” was chosen after jokes were made with Matthias Andersson (IDDB label boss and project Arv & Miljö), about the neighbourhood Gamlestaden, where Dan, Sofie and Matthias lived.
