Norwegian act The Opium Cartel, the sideproject of White Willow's Jacob Holm, is currently recording a new album with Mattias Olsson (Änglagård, Pineforest Crunch, Nanook of the North, etc.) and will also be doing some recording/mixing with producer Brian McTear (Espers, Swearing at Motorists, etc.) later on at his studio in Philadelphia. Holm also reports that he is mixing songs for an album with Italian electronica artist Giancarlo Erra and No-Man/fellow Opium Cartel collaborator Tim Bowness.
