Møster!’s sixth album, Springs, out in September

Four years on from the release of Dust Breathing, Møster! are following it up with a new record. Entitled Springs, it marks their sixth full length album and it will see the light of day on September 20th through Action Jazz. Composed entirely by saxophonist and band leader Kjetil Møster, it features the same lineup as when the band formed in 2009, Motorpsycho guitarist Hans Magnus ‘Snah’ Ryan; electric bass player of Elephant9 and Needlepoint Nikolai Hængsle; and Spidergawd and ex-Motorpsycho drummer Kenneth Kapstad. Corralling a variety of musical influences, including 1960’s/1970’s modal acoustic and electric jazz and 1970’s experimental rock, the upcoming Springs also interweaves elements of Brazilan music, doom, contemporary music, 1990’s indie rock and metal, and nordic ambient house.

Møster! have already let loose two singles from the album, ‘Dreaming Xaxado’ and ‘Liquid Fumes’. As Møster! describes, the latter is “an ode to the almost astral experience one can enter by listening deeply to old jazz ballads, a reverent little nod to the poetic spirit of Coleman Hawkins and Pharoah Sanders.”
