Mr Libaek has been a bit of an underground hero for
a some while now. Some of his library Peer / Standard
library work was rediscovered in the mid 1990s, and
some was reissued at the turn of the millenium.
This in turn kicked off more interest in Sven and since
then the world has got smaller and his original LPs have
become a little better known - although they're still a
bloody nightmare to find, even in their native Australia.

A good few years ago I was on the trail of Mr Libaek,
I'd found one of his odd Library LPs in Melbourne, liked
it and knew bugger all about him. It became quite clear
after a little digging that he'd made a few LPs, mostly
film music related. Six months later I plucked up the
courage to write to him - I was desperate to hear his
soundtrack recording for the surf film 'To Ride A White
Horse'. If it was anything like his library work it was going
to be worth hearing. At the time I was digging authentic
surf soundtracks, one of the many splintering sub genres
of film music, and this early album seemed like it could
be a milestone of some sort. A few weeks later Sven
sent me a carefully recorded C90 of his score.
It is still in my car.

Over time mainly spent in the car I realised Sven's music
was warm, gentle and jazzy but still a touch weird, and
always had room for him to experiment when films dictated
he could. To my ears he had a unique, distinctive sound
and over the next few years I managed to track down all the
rest of his fine work. But it took ages - an LP a year was
about the norm. Even shopping in Australia for two weeks
I only found one.

Then in 2004 one of his (mysteriously shortened) tracks
from the score to Val and Ron Taylor's legendary underwater
telly series 'Inner Space' was used in that Life Aquatic film
and I thought the time had come to get back in touch with the
infamous musical Norwegian living down under.

The result is this new CD, a compilation of Sven's finest
film work.
