Ivar needs no introduction, as a luminary in underground Metal, he has been creating innovative music for over 30 years with his groundbreaking band Enslaved. Andrew is a prolific solo artist, producer, remixer and studio engineer. He has worked with many leading lights in experimental and outsider music and is renowned for his work with Nurse With Wound and Current 93.
ANVÅR was hatched in 2021, amid the chaos of the Covid pandemic when after some idle chit-chat, Ivar and Andrew discovered they were both owners and fans of vintage Roland synths.
Andrew has a Roland SH-101
Ivar has a Roland SH-1 and a SH-1000
So a plan was made to create an album in homage to those synths, a very analogue recording with strict guidelines. The concept was to ONLY use the Roland keyboards, nothing else, no extra instrumentation, just the Roland synths. All songs could be no longer than ten minutes ten seconds and only minimal post production and effects were allowed. The words, eloquently narrated by Melanie Duperrex, are, in part, taken from Roland manuals. The cover art is also is an adaptation of diagrams from Roland manuals.
In an era when musicians have endless choices at their fingertips and VST plugins can emulate practically any instrument with incredibly convincing accuracy, Andrew and Ivar wanted to go back in time and create a recording of authentic analogue integrity. Hailemal is the result.

"After releasing their successful 2020 debut album “The Line” and scoring a soundtrack for the game “Kingdom Two Crowns: Norse Lands,” Norwegian Alternative folk / pop band, Kalandra are back with their second studio album effort, “A Frame of Mind”.
Steadily building momentum, Kalandra have toured with Leprous and A.A. Wlliams in 2022 and 2023, played at renowned festivals such as Hellfest and Midgardsblot. The new record showcases the band’s gained experiences and expansive songwriting. As a result, Kalandra is more versatile than ever, without losing touch of the immersive sound the quartet is known and loved for.
“The album can be described as an introspective journey about life’s experiences and how they shape the way we perceive the world. It explores what we put within the frame of our day-to-day lives, but also what is excluded. The band has combed through their memories and written about the past, cherished childhood memories, and a wariness about the future and the state of the world.
The album artwork is a commission from the visionary contemporary artist Elen Alien.

On her new album Alva, singer, musician, activist and cultural icon Mari Boine offers glimpses into a childhood which she abandoned when she chose to leave behind a strict religious upbringing in order to pursue a life of activism. The new studio record reflects on finding the balance the between her, the at times lonely, mission to share the culture and histories of the Sámi people through music to people across the world, and her personal journey and relationships.
Alva reflects the “willpower” of its name, and takes the listener on a musical journey of exhilarating momentum, spurred along by a full band. There’s an emancipated energy that is also reflected in the music, soaring to new heights over vast imagined landscapes of the tundra of Northern Norway.
