Geir Friestad took some nice photos at the DEL & Kobi release party. Thanks!

Our friend Stein Øvre filmed Kobi‘s set at last week’s release party:

DEL and Kobi release Split The Cosmos on Kassettkultur today. This is a C90 tape limited to 50 numbered copies. DEL reports from a cosmic trip to Bodø, Norway with a live recording from Nødutgangfestivalen 2010, while Kobi offers a spacey noise drone made from primordial matter, recorded at the release party for their 2010 album “Urstoff” at Sound of Mu, Oslo, Norway.

There will be a release party tonight at Café Mir in Oslo. The bands will play a set each and then join forces for a third set.

The WOLFgang will appear live for the second time on Tuesday, March 15, at Sound of Mu in Oslo. This time the gang consists of Øyvind Hellner (synthesizer), Espen Ursin (electronics, viola), Kjetil Hanssen (electronics), Petter Flaten Eilertsen (electronics, guitar) and Oddvar Karlsmyr (metal plate, electric toothbrush).

To celebrate the release of Conrad Schnitzler & Bjørn Hatterud‘s album Hirschgebrüll there will be a CONcert tonight, March 10, at Sound of Mu in Oslo. Maja S.K. Ratkje, Petter Flaten Eilertsen, Ole Hermann Melby and Bjørn Hatterud will play material specially prepared by Conrad Schnitzler. There will also be live remixes of the album by Kjetil Hanssen and Helene Rickhard, plus nice industrial music played by DJ Halvard Haldorsen (Sadomaoistan/The Machines). Free entrance!

Here’s a nice review (in Norwegian) of Kobi’s new album “Urstoff” by J. Vega of the Vinyl Salvation blog.
