Big Tip! Rapid Light is the inaugural quartet in Lauritz Heitmann Skeidsvoll's personal repertoire, established during the winter of 2023. The quartet recorded this album in February 2024 in Studio Paradiso, Oslo, Norway - Collaborating with the talented sound engineer Christian Engfelt. Rapid Light is born out of a desire to cultivate a vibrant, dynamic, and inclusive musical environment where musicians can flourish and collaborate. The melodies in orchestral film music have always captivated them, with their powerful and emotive qualities. Additionally, Rapid Light finds great inspiration in the raw energy and boundless creativity that can be found in both American and European free jazz.
"I have put together a band with some of the most inspiring and interesting musicians I know, and I believe that together we make up a powerful quartet, which with the help of melodious compositions, great rhythmic drive, and a sincere urge to explore, conjures up a raw and energetic primal force".
