This cut is from R010R R04 EP. For these 4 tracks I was experimenting with noise as the main instrumentation. This is the bridge between the tracks on R010R-Total Disinformation Awareness and the Diminished Bastard Sword project. Thank you for listening.

Wandering Mind, Drifting Weather is a cross-border collaboration between Norwegian composer and pianist Julia Gjertsen and Swedish trombonist and sound artist Gustav Davidsson. Both artists have a classically trained background, and are known for their improvised sound and Ambient compositions. Between them they’ve released on labels such as Moderna Records, Constellation Tatsu, Bigo & Twigetti and Blue Spiral Records. While Julia is known for her emotive piano-led pieces and evolving electronic textures, Gustav brings his unique approach to the trombone, treating it as both a melodic and atmospheric instrument. They reside in separate but neighbouring countries with Julia in Oslo, Norway and Gustav in the village of Ljungskile near Gothenburg in Sweden.

This album was created as a slow and intuitive exchange of sketches, sent back and forth between these two artists over the course of several months. The result is an immersive suite of compositions which place the piano and trombone front of stage, enhanced by subtle restrained pads, Wurlitzer tones and gentle electronics. Each piece represents a different time of day and evokes a mood akin to weather in motion such as shifting light, drifting clouds or a sudden breeze. The title Wandering Mind, Drifting Weather reflects the intuitive progression of these works, where ideas and improvisations gradually shaped a harmonious collection. Thematically, it paints nature as both a setting and a metaphor; the way a setting can be transformed by meteorological elements, and how thoughts, just like weather, pass with their own emotional charge.

Rather than follow a rigid structure, the music here exists in a space between composition and spontaneity, often capturing a moment rather than refining it. Julia’s minimal and expressive piano sketches form the structural foundation, while Gustav explores the trombone’s many voices not just as a lead instrument, but as a background hum, gentle harmony, or a shadowy atmosphere

Wandering Mind, Drifting Weather

wlr187 Julia Gjertsen & Gustav Davidsson - Wandering Mind, Drifting Weather

This album emerges from the rediscovery of an accordion following the loss of a close relative an instrument that had been a constant companion throughout their life, weaving itself into the fabric of childhood memory. At its core lies the recognition that both human and
accordion share the same essential act: breathing.

The accordion becomes a meditation on mortality and memory, its bellows expanding and contracting like "lungs", its air valve releasing pure breath without melody—the raw pneumatic essence of life itself. Every sound originates from this single instrument, largely unprocessed, preserving the intimate relationship between human touch and mechanical response.

It’s an investigation of how an instrument can hold the memory of hands that no longer play it. The mechanical whispers, the subtle articulations of metal and leather and wood become a language of remembrance, breathed rather than spoken.

Vermenschlichen II (Decay)

I attempt to capture the essence of place, time and environment through textured sounds. Most of my pieces are derived from memories and reminiscence and try to recreate that experience, or at least the imagined memory and feelings evoked.
