Emil Palme
Loading...
Emil Palme is an experimental composer and guitarist whose practice is rooted in Scandinavian folklore and experimental music.
His solo work follows many acclaimed outings with his guitar duo Yngel, as well as performances with the late Manuel Gottsching.
Stroking and scratching the strings of his instrument with self-made bows of stone, the Danish artist conjures mesmerising ceremonial patterns which unfold in the misty nether zone between composition and improvisation.
There is a primeval quality to the music, and a vital simplicity which begs comparison to certain stark turns by Morton Feldman or more recently the Malone/O’Malley coalition.
Emil Palme’s second album, “Death By Angel” will be released in early 2025 and is the follow-up to his debut album Ripen, which was released on the British label First Terrace Records.
Boomkat:
“ Palme's laser-sharp focus on the guitar is refreshing, and his dextrous, unusual playing
keeps our ears engaged throughout.”
As sound slowly fades:
"This is skeletal music set to a glacial pace, able to evoke huge plains and moods with the slightest of touches"
