In June 2006 North of the North explored the sounds in a small area of North Norway. On the islands Skjervy and Arny at 70¡N they collected sounds from meetings with local fishermen, staff at a ferry, a flock of reindeer, arctic birdlife and more. These recordings are phonographies - sound pictures - used in an improvisational electro acoustic dialogue with the other instruments in the group. The sounds from Skjerv¿y and Arn¿y are part of an artificial sound world when the musicians present their own interpretation of the sound in these areas. Marc Pichelin - phonographies, electronics. Xavier Charles - clarinet, harmonica. Ivar Grydeland - banjo.
