On his fourth solo album, and debut work for the Psychic Liberation imprint, Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø presents Faint Light Blackens , a negotiation between the atomized instrumentation of the solo trombone is pushed towards a “full range wall of sound” over the concise sprawl of seven distinct acts on two sides of a vinyl record. (…) Experientially, the record was produced in a long form performance gesture, with no overdubs. While edited to fit the record format, no additional post production coloring took place. Here Nørstebø shines as an instrumentalist, wherein the symbiosis of the site specific architecture and his sound sources are synced. At once musing and brooding, the gamut of emotive sonic landscapes is at play for a fully dynamic listening experience. The territory in Nørstebø’s vocabulary through interplay with the mausoleum is not vaulted , unlike Vigeland’s urn’ed ashes. On Faint Light Blackens, the spirit takes bound beyond the cavern and reanimates the listeners stereo alters for a holistic listening experience of perfectly challenging electroacoustic endeavors.
