Astro Sonic Come Closer and I'll Tell You Limited 180gram Vinyl LP
Overview:
The rocking synth trio Astro Sonic have focused on a broad sonic spectrum on their debut album ‘Come Closer and I'll Tell You’. The music evokes associations with experimental ambient, krautrock, synth impro and Bo Hansson’s instrumental music of the sixties. This 180g vinyl edition is limited to only 500 copies Worldwide.
The three members of the group have been collaborating for quite some time, but it was not until 2008 that they decided to establish Astro Sonic. Erlend Slettevoll’s (Grand General, The Core) synths really get the opportunity to shine in a soundscape that is at times whipped onwards by a powerful rhythm section comprised of Rune Nergaard (Marvel
Machine) on bass and Gard Nilssen (Susanne Sundfor, Lord Kelvin) on drums, both of whom have been playing in the power trio Bushman’s Revenge for over ten years.
The album was recorded in analogue in the course of three days at Svenska Grammofon Studio in Gothenburg, and was mixed by Jorgen Traeen at Duper Studio.
