Angel
Listening to the music of Danish/Norwegian Angel, one is challenged with the task of defining the music within any given style. Combining the uncompromising and investigative approach of free improvisation with the energy, physicality and sheer loudness of metal in a more or less acoustic context, Angel is uncovering new territory in improvised music. From subtle pointillism and sonic manipulations to head-on massacre, Angel plays exciting music with a strong sense of purpose, pushing the limit of each instrument. The result is an honest and pure music that will question any preconceptions about art in general and music in particular.

In February 2010 Angel released their debut-CD on the prestigious Danish label “ILK"—ilkmusic.com The three musicians are some of the most exciting young improvisers on the Danish jazzscene, and have gained recognition through collaborations with artist such as Peter Brotzmann, Paal Nilssen-Love, Jesper Zeuthen, T.S. Heg, Peter Friis-Nielsen and Petter Wettre.

Line-up: Stephan Sieben (DK)—guitar, Adam Pultz Melbye (DK)—bass, Hkon Berre (NO)—drums
