Thanks for your comment. Not that I would prefer that either of these albums had been brought out originally with a more techno vibe; or changed in any way at all, but I would love to hear a new album of Substrata with all the “outakes” for lack of a better word, and yes maybe more technoey feel or whatever Geir was messing with at the time. Substrata is a fantastic album and I just wish I could get more of it.

Incidentally you may want to check out Substrata 2 (not as exciting as it sounds). Substrata 2 is a two disc set: disk one is just a remastered version of the original album; disk two is the soundtrack to a 1920s movie Geir Jensson was sponsored/curated to do. The movie was only shown a couple of times and then lost, but Geir has recreated it with his own material and posted it here on vimeo (

).

To me that would diminish the whole point of the album. There’s a drastic eeriness to it that excites me so much. I have a lot of enthusiasm for this album. The sound has a severe sedating effect for me. It transports me to a different world, like taking strong opiates. To me this album is the definition of ambient music.
