«For 10 years of collaboration with Jan Bang and Erik Honoré, but also many other amazing musicians, in and around The Punkt Festival in Kristiansand, I have tried to make the literary text and the literary reading voice become more symbiotic with the element of sound. It’s been like walking a fine and fragile line, understanding bit by bit the balance and sensitivity it requires. But after a live performance in Oslo in 2013, where I released a two volume book, The theory of the Singular, both me, Jan and Erik, felt that we had material for a record, based on the live recording and the foundation of the book. So early October I’m releasing a record on Jazzland/Universal together with Nils Petter Molvær, Jan Bang, Erik Honoré and Eivind Aarset. It’s also produced by Erik Honoré, and comes as a download version and a limited edition box set, where both volumes of the book – translated into English – are included, which makes this release quite unique.»

– Nils Chr. Moe-Repstad

The album is a limited deluxe edition – a box set which includes a CD and the complete two-volume poetry book Theory of the Singular by Moe-Repstad, translated into English exclusively for this release.
