WAIT GUYS, idk if anyone has ever said this but remember that scene where Oren says he knows an investigator, who's working with an equally skilled hacker. Could it have been Lyra? Or on of the tgg contesttands??

Oren Ambarchi, Johan Berthling and Andreas Werliin Interview: Winning Concepts

Photo by Thobias Fäldt

BY JORDAN MAINZER

Well, that didn't take nearly as long. A mere two years after releasing the once dormant and eventually critically acclaimed Ghosted, Oren Ambarchi, Johan Berthling, and Andreas Werliin are releasing its follow-up on Friday via Drag City. The trio returned to Studio Rymden in Stockholm last June, with years of performing together under their belt, and laid down the tracks for Ghosted II in a mere two days. Like its predecessor, Ghosted II delves into jazz and drone music, has numerical track titles, and features guitar from Ambarchi that sounds like an organ, album art by Pål Dybwik, and video art by Cédrick Eymenier. Less like its predecessor (though not wholly unlike it), Ghosted II plays with dynamics, is more improvised with minimal overdubs, and roots itself in everything from ambient music to funk. Oh, and its numerical track titles are in Swedish instead of Roman numerals.

Seriously, Ambarchi, Berthling, and Werliin could follow the same four-track formula with the same featured artists every time and I would be more excited with every release. That's how potent Ghosted II is. “en” sports brilliant textural contrasts, pattering drums, scraggly guitar, and barely-there bass, but nonetheless wears a zesty groove. “två” I can most aptly describe as chrome lounge jazz, rife with repeated bass, slow hand percussion, and cold, warbling guitars that pulsate at constantly changing speeds. “tre” is where we first truly hear those inexorable Ambarchi guitar sounds, whirring and shapeshifting with a light chirp and glitch as Werliin's percussion circumvents Berthling's bass. The song sounds like it's traveling through a prickly continuum. And “fyra” ends the set with shimmering ambiance, syncopated bass and drums steady until Werliin jumps into a clattering groove, eventually letting Ambarchi take front and center before the three descend into silence. Ghosted II is the type of album as easy to listen to as it is heady and complex, an achievement that should further this trio's welcome emergence in the experimental music realm.

Oh, and I forgot to mention another similarity to Ghosted: Ambarchi, Berthling, and Werliin once again were willing to answer some questions from me over email about the album. Read their responses below, edited for clarity, including some can't-miss music recommendations.

Since I Left You: How would you say Ghosted II is different from the first record, and how is it a continuation of what you were doing on Ghosted? Oren Ambarchi: I would say that it's a continuation from the first one. The approach in the studio was very similar: We simply got together and improvised with little discussion beforehand. It was recorded very quickly--from memory, all the pieces are first takes, and there was minimal overdubbing.

SILY: How did playing live as a trio inform Ghosted II? When you went in to the recording, did you think of it like a live concert with no audience? OA: Playing live has been really great, as we've been developing our language as a trio from show to show, and this definitely impacted the new one. Like the first trio recording, the vibe in the studio was very relaxed. It was like playing together in someone's lounge room. Personally I tried to approach the new one with newer guitar sounds, many of which I discovered in real-time whilst we were recording. I was hoping my playing would be a little different to the playing on the first record. I didn't want to repeat myself, and I'm sure the others felt the same way regarding how they approached the recording. So the new album is, on the one hand, a continuation from the first album, but on the other hand, it's an exciting new development for all of us. Johan Berthling: I think playing live has merged our sounds together quite a bit. We know each other's playing a lot better. When recording the first album, we had nothing. Now, we have a sound and a foundation we can continue to build on. For me, the studio (could be) a magical environment where all is possible. The live situation has so many parameters that are not controllable, so I want to keep them apart. I never look at recording as a live performance. Andreas Werliin: Playing live in front of an audience is very different from being in a studio recording session.[It has] different energy. It’s weird: The great live shows rarely transform into a good recording. It’s usually too much information. What we experienced when playing live was that we could use much more dynamics than on our albums. In a studio recording, you can use the room and vibe to play less and still keep it interesting, making small changes instead of the big movements we do live.

SILY: Is there something unique about Studio Rymden that fosters creative collaboration? OA: It feels super relaxed recording there, which really suits our vibe and somehow enhances what we are going for. I think we are all inspired by the room at Rymden and play off of the space. JB: It has a really nice living room atmosphere and has all the equipment we need. Daniel [Bengtson], who runs it, is also a great and knowledgeable guy making everyone feel at ease. AW: [It's] a good sounding, very relaxed place. [It] feels like being at a home party.

SILY: Why was it important for you to have continuity between the two albums' visual identities (cover art, music videos)? JB: Why change a winning concept? :) AW: These days, things are moving so fast. Everything and everybody has to change all the time to not lose the audience's attention, both visually and musically. We took the opportunity to go against that movement, I guess.

SILY: What inspired the track titles this time around? OA: Laziness. It's 1/2/3/4 in Swedish. Maybe we'll pick another language when we do another release.

SILY: How did the songs on the first record end up evolving live? Do you foresee these songs having a similar live evolution? OA: Absolutely. It's been really fun expanding on the pieces on the first album in a live context. Those pieces have really gone places. Some live versions of the pieces have lasted 30-40 minutes each. We've already been playing some of the new pieces live, too, and they are already morphing into new explorations that are quite different from the recorded versions.

AW: We developed a new form and used more improvisation and a lot more dynamics.

SILY: What's next? OA: We have some shows coming up as a trio which I'm really looking forward to. I really love playing with Johan and Andreas. My next big show...is a new piece titled "Sous Vide" with conductor Ilan Volkov and the Brussels Philharmonic Orchestra. I'm also hoping to start on a new solo record later this year. AW: I'm excited to release [Ghosted II]. We’re all pretty busy with other projects and family life, so [I'm] just hoping for peace, love, and understanding in general, I guess.

SILY: Is there anything you've been listening to, watching, or reading lately that you've enjoyed or that's inspired you? AW: I would highly recommend Brighde Chaimbeul's album The Reeling (River Lea). She will play live in our village on the west coast of Sweden on July 7th in an incredible church. Much welcome. JB: Lately, I’ve been listening a lot to Howlin' Wolf's Message to the Young and John Lee Hooker and Canned Heat's Hooker 'n Heat. Live, I recently saw a fantastic performance by Evan Parker and Alexander Hawkins in Germany!

OA: [I've been] listening to plenty non-stop, but here's a few recent things that come to mind:

James Rushford's Turzets

An unreleased 1974 live recording of Salamat Ali Khan from Berlin

ML Buch's Suntub (15 love)

Tyshawn Sorey's Continuing (Pi)

Ahmir Khan's Khayal By Ustad Ahmir Khan

RLW's When freezing air stings like ice I shall breathe again (Drag City)

Lenny Breau's Quietude

Eduardo Mateo

Glenn Gould's version of Brahms: 10 Intermezzi

Mikel Rouse Broken Consort

Tirzah

Weather Report's Live & Unreleased

I also just picked up an amazing new remaster of Genesis' The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, which I've been playing endlessly.

I recently watched Dog Day Afternoon with my 16-year-old last night. It was good to revisit that one. I also recently saw a great UK documentary on Cornelius Cardew with footage of the Scratch Orchestra and AMM. Other than that, it's always Law & Order before bed.

Aviel Oren, 29, was murdered by Hamas terrorists at the Nova festival on October 7th.

He is survived by his brothers, Daniel and Ariel, his younger sister, Tiferet, and his parents, Etty and Shlomi. Aviel attended the festival with his girlfriend, Shirel, her sister, Ortal, and her boyfriend, Daniel. Shirel survived after being injured, but Aviel, Ortal, and Daniel were murdered.

During the Hamas attack, Aviel was shot three times in the leg. Considered missing for a week, his body was later identified, and he was buried in Jerusalem.

Aviel was a triplet, and his brother Daniel wrote on Facebook, “My brother, my twin, I don’t know how to speak about you in the past tense. We have always been ‘the triplets’ since age 0. Through tears, laughter, celebrations, everything.”

His brother Ariel said, “We have been left with 2 out of 3… I love you truly — watch over Mom, Dad, Tiferet, Daniel, and especially me, because I’m going to need it — just [to deal with] the thought that every birthday we have will be accompanied with so much pain.”

He is remembered for his kindness, big heart, and his huge smile.

May Aviel’s memory forever be a blessing.

🟠 SOLDIERS HAVE FALLEN  - AFTER SHABBAT NEWS 

ISRAEL REALTIME - Connecting to Israel in Realtime

✡️ Shavua Tov, may we have a good and blessed week, safety and peace, success for our soldiers, and the safe and healthy return of our hostages.  And a really bad week for our enemies.

▪️4 HERO SOLDIERS HAVE FALLEN.. in battle in Gaza:

Evyatar Atuar, 24, from Rosh HaAyin.  

Daniel Pacheniuk, 26, from Bat Yam

Nitai Mitodi, 23, from Ashkelon

Yang Yitchok Oren, 35, from Ein Gedi

May their families be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem, and may G-d avenge their blood!

SHABBAT NEWS SUMMARY

🔷 LEBANON - IDF performed multiple targeted eliminations of several Hezbollah commanders in Lebanon and Syria, attacked Iranian backed militias in Syria on Shabbat day, and bombed Lebanon extensively.

Over 100 ROCKETS fired by HEZBOLLAH at northern Israel towns.  This seems to be the new Hezbollah pattern, less targets but MORE rockets - a barrage every time (mean 10-40 rockets per launch).  Several hits and homes burned in Kiryat Shmona.

🔶 DEAL SUMMARY -> Hamas is not negotiating but IS sending a team to the negotiations.  (No, I can’t figure that out either.)  They insist on no changes from the past US submitted terms of May or July, that they didn’t agree to and neither did Israel.  Israel has supposedly offered to reduce presence on the Egypt border and on the Gaza splitting corridor (Philadelphi and Netzar), but the PMO has denied. 

Senior Hamas official Mahmoud Mardaoui:   "The arrival of the Hamas delegation in Cairo does not mean that we have entered into a round of talks. The delegation will receive updates from the Egyptians."  (Meaning the Egyptian “mediators” are now negotiating FOR Hamas, not as a coordinating proxy but as the negotiators.)

And Israeli hostage families continue to blame the Prime Minister for not accepting survival threatening terms.  (In other words, a normal week.)

🔷 GAZA -> IDF continues heavy battles and destruction of sites used for military attacks, and those too close to the border or split corridor.  Every time Hamas fires a rocket, the IDF is now evacuating the area of civilians and then clearing it and destroying the launch site, which Hamas claims has reduced humanitarian areas from 230 square kilometers to 35.  

Another kilometer long tunnel blow up in Rafah.

🔷 JUDEA-SAMARIA -> again accusations of local Israeli civilians rioting, this time said to be stone throwing - which usually comes about when the Arabs have been stone throwing at the road and the local Jews get sick of it when there is insufficient official response.  The IDF says they ran them off quickly.

Defense Minister Galant issued administrative arrest warrants against 4 Israelis living in Judea-Samaria.  That’s detention without trial, without presenting evidence, without judicial review - due to risk of terrorism.

🔷 FRANCE -> Synagogue attacked, bomb at the Beth Yaacov synagogue in La Grande Motte.  Police guarding the synagogue injured, fire started, 2 cars burned - one likely being the source of the explosion.  The potential suspect seen in CCTV footage was brandishing a Palestinian flag and armed.

On October 6, all of these people were alive and minding their own business. They were living their own lives. Islamic terrorists from Gaza took that all away from them, leaving a permanent scar on their communities and the entire nation of Israel.

More names will be coming up soon.
