about

Digital Album Format: 1644 Wav.

Optical Substance is the project of the musician, composer and producer Kjetil Huseboe, a project in which he combines elements from both jazz, electronica, ambient and pop. On the album entitled Adaptation, he has consciously sought a balance between an acoustic and an electronic sound. In the compositions we find an assembly of eclectic musical expressions that convey intense emotion both in a melodic, calm, meditative and thoughtful manner.

The music has an organic character and the production is subtle.
The compositions that appear on Adaptation is the result of extensive work with various musicians who focus particularly on improvisation. The live-sampling of these musicians has been an important basis for the creative process resulting in Adaptation. Thus, the album contains numerous live samplings that have shaped much of the music on Adaptation.
