A Vibrant Struggle – Between The Woods And Frozen Lake
The Bjerga/Iversen – staplerfahrer connection dates back to 2003. In that year staplerfahrer released his first works via Iversen’s “TIBProd.” label and participated in a remix project based on Iversen’s work. Later on, in February of 2006, Bjerga/Iversen came over to tour the Netherlands and played shows in Den Haag, Tilburg and Amsterdam. Staplerfahrer joined in on some of these gigs and visited Norway in September of that year, to play a Bjerga/Iversen curated program at the Stavanger NuMusic festival. Finally in 2007 the three came up with the idea to join forces in electro acoustic free improv outfit “A Vibrant Struggle”.
As weekly sessions weren’t the best option, the three decided to plan a long weekend session during the fall of 2007, in a cabin up in the mountains of Norway. Fueled by öl and a bit too much greasy fast food, they started to record tape after tape in the eerie silence of an abandoned ski resort. With their equipment scattered all over the cabin’s wooden floors and each one of them taking their place in one corner of the living room, the 4-track started recording while the stove was eating away it’s given logs and time passed by. Long days and long nights delivered a stack of tapes with blissful drones, crackling/clanging electro-acoustics, wood thumping and the occasional guitar picking.
“The Molten Snow Tapes”, as these outtakes of the sessions have been named, saw their release on some fine labels from across the globe. This one on Moving Furniture Records is the tenth release in the series. Earlier ones where published by The House of Alchemy (USA), 2:00AM Tapes (USA), 905 Tapes (USA), Small Doses (USA), Gold Soundz (NO), Dim Records (NL) and Bum Tapes (GB).

Out Now: Small Things On Sundays – 4 AM
Moving Furniture Records is proud to announce
MFR007: Small Things On Sundays – 4 AM (Limited to 100)
4 AM is an album with dark structures created with guitar and vinyl. Music for the moment human activities are at a minimum. Dark droning ambient music.
Listen at Bandcamp
Read what the duo has to say about their album:
“4 AM” is the first full-length release from the danish duo Small Thing on Sundays.
The members’ interest for music and vinyl records led to the formation in 2005, starting with free improvisations with electronic treatments of vinyl records in any tempo. Since then, Small Things on Sundays has refined their signature sounds, and added more sound sources. The duo works with different stylistic challenges in periods of time. Prior to Small Things on Sundays, both members have made music in various constellations – Henrik Bagner played in a free-structure noice-guitar band in the 90-es, which unfortunately never left the rehearsal space, and Claus Poulsen has been playing since his childhood in various bands, the best known is the noise-ensemble Alarm112.
“4 AM” came from a string of sessions using vinyl records at very slow speeds and detuned guitars played with a violin bow. This produced a string of organic, multilayered dark ambient tracks. On muliple playbacks, the listener will dig deeper into the layers of the music, exposing new details.
The title refers to the blurred line between night and day. Did you suddenly wake up or are you still in a dream? Perhaps the sounds will take you to a place of daydreaming. A movie soundtrack for your own inner film.
An other reference to the title is, that this is the hour of the day, where human activities are at a minimum. Surroundings are cast in darkness, but where will be a residue from human-made sources or the faint light from nature. And if you look up you will see a starlit sky or the white smoke from the nearby power plant. So perhaps we are romantic realists?
