MP3: Originalljudet - Jennys polska

Fri, 07 May 2010 12:55:08 -0700

Originalljudet means "original sound" which could mean all sorts of things, depending on how you want to interpret it. It is brand new or is it going back to the source? Or perhaps a little of both, as you'll hear on "Jennys polska". It's got the lilting melody of classic Jan Johansson, but the feel is more stiff-legged and monotonous, giving the piece a darker undercurrent. I can picture creepy, withered old dudes playing this sort of stuff on a cobblestone street corner or in some olde world European café, but it's nice to know that it's actually being made by fresh-faced young folks, young folks who are eager to twist old sounds and exploit them into something new.
