Bugge Wesseltoft ‎– New Conception Of Jazz: Film Ing 2LP Joshua Redman 1st Press

Description: Bugge Wesseltoft ‎– New Conception Of Jazz: Film Ing 2LP Joshua Redman 1st Press Rare of Vinyl Absolutely Fantastic "Film ing" is the new masterpiece. Bugge back to his studio after last year`s phenomenal live output, recordings and tours and back to the roots and rudiments of his "New conception of jazz". Filmatic, melancholy nordic piano resonances, punishing synth funk, organic grooves, and guest musicianship of the highest calibre: all directed by the ever-watchful and forward-thinking Bugge. Bugge Wesseltoft is perhaps the very definition of a self-made man: since the mid-1980s when he began working in various projects, through hard work, diligence and a generous spirit, not to mention a huge amount of talent, Bugge has achieved: the set-up of his own label, Jazzland Recordings; leadership of one of the most well-loved crossover jazz ensembles to emerge from Norway, New Conception of Jazz; countless collaborative projects that are regarded by many as producing some of the best albums in jazz anywhere; and numerous awards throughout, including several Norwegian Grammies (Spellemannprisen) and the Buddy Award – Norway’s highest accolade in jazz. The 1990s also marked the beginning of an era of new crossover experimentalism in Norwegian music. Club DJs and Jazz musicians began interacting to create a brand new kind of fusion, mingling traditional jazz improvisation with beats and turntablism. The appeal of electronics had always been magnetic to Bugge, who soon began working on new material based on this new concept. And indeed, the project’s name emphasised this: “New Conception of Jazz”. With the release of his first album as a band leader, Bugge also realised that in order to provide the right kind of support for his album, he would need his own label. As such, the year 1996 marks a watershed for both Bugge and the emerging generation of jazz musicians, as Jazzland Recordings was founded that year with the album “New Conception of Jazz” as its first release. The album itself was recorded in 1994 and featured a plethora of talent from different generations of Norwegian Jazz, including Ingebrigt Håker Flaten, Anders Engen, Eivind Aarset, Erlend Gjerde, Nils Petter Molvær, Audun Kleive, Björn Kjellemyr and Vidar Johansen. The album was a great success, and the New Conception of Jazz project spawned a further three studio albums (“Sharing”, 1998; “Moving”, 2001; and “Film Ing”, 2004 – this final album was perhaps the most eclectic of the entire output of NCoJ, and featured Norwegian folk singer, Øyonn Groven Myhren, saxophonist Joshua Redman, and Qawwali singer and oud player Dhafer Youssef),
