_______________________________________________________________________
... a careful alternation between chaos and predictability,
fuzzy clicks, mildly overdriven, yet uneasily hushed shifting
chords, and Oval-like uneasy ambience. - The Wire
RishaugÆs constructions are like readymades waiting to be
plucked from the ground, deadweight solids with a come-hither
glint. - Phillip Sherburne
Alexander Rishaug is a sound artist and electronic musician
based in Oslo, Norway. A member of the countryÆs fertile
experimental music scene, Rishaug has toured throughout Europe
and the US and appeared on compilations on the Rune Grammofon,
Jester and Smalltown Supersound labels. His first full-length,
the critically acclaimed Panorama, was released in 2002 by
Smalltown Supersound.
Moving from ambient to abstract beats and classic clicks and
cuts, RishaugÆs second release, Possible Landscape, explores
tones and textures creating detailed, rich and melodic
soundscapes. Based on recordings of self-played instruments and
field recordings that were then edited and processed on
RishaugÆs computer, Possible Landscape straddles a perfect
middle ground between structure and rhythm with unexpected
skips and random shifts.
Also a member of the improv trio ARM with Arne Borgan and Are
Mokkelbost (Single Unit), Rishaug has collaborated with
numerous other artists including Hσkon Kornstad, Pσl Asle
Pettersen, Tonny Klyften, John Hegre, J°rgen Trµen, Toshimaru
Nakamura and Salvatore.
