Sunken Ships by Asbjørn

Asbjørn is that cool Nordic wind. He's got bad bones and strange ears. He is your dose of melancholy. He does not trash hotel rooms but he dances to make you understand that he is the new sound of pop.

Growing up in the footsteps of Britney, Destiny's Child and Spice Girls, 19-year-old Asbjørn is a real pop kid. Torn between the Nordic melancholy and a relentless determination to dance, he is the long lost son of Jackson and Schubert! A strange hybrid - the missing link. With one foot in the symphonic classical tradition and the other on synthetic pop ground, Asbjørn's melodies balance on an organic layer of hand-played electronica.

"Sunken Ships" was recorded over two years in Aarhus - Asbjørn's home town - with Stillwalker producer Jonas Tranberg (Efterklang, Murder a.o.).
