Boli Group present their keenly anticipated début album, N.P.D.S. on Posh Isolation. A suite of classicist chamber arrangements for Piano, Cello, Violin, Alto Sax & E-Max infiltrated by sparingly used synths, this is the sound of rarified contemplation in breezy white rooms, hovering between stately solemnity, urbane spirituality and ornate ennui…

“Hartvig is perhaps best known for his work with the group Synd Og Skam. And though less known, Brynje 1&2 is just as exceptional. Taking both technology and classicism as allegories, each group charts routes in and out of pop music, somehow arriving at an observer’s distance to the distinct stylistic choices in the process. The label Visage has published the best of this, and the logic has certainly been carried into ‘Boli Group LP,’ the latest offering from Hartvig and his distinguished ensemble of Nina Cristante, Holger Hartvig, Thea Thorborg, and Cæcilie Trier.

There is a nearly unendurable fragility to ‘Boli Group LP.’ It’s as if Hartvig has let the complexities of his themes stand in mourning; his narrator taking a moment to themselves behind sunglasses, exhausted for the rose-tinted lens of the prepared script. The album is willingly dramatic, though it never plateaus into melancholia. Hartvig pirouettes at the edge with the sorrowful string arrangements and the pristine timbre of the piano, the immediacy of the acoustics always binding the listener tightly to the risk. Pastoral and meditative, the electronics don’t tamper with the delicate fabric being woven. They always register as supportive and understated. The synthetic hum, occasionally yielding a doleful melody as it does, manages to imbue a naiveté to this contemporary and subtly idiosyncratic chamber music.

Though the track titles lead us on, in time the examination the album provokes is that of the tension in transparency. The album’s secret, barely kept through the minimalism, is its distinct folk noir quality in holding it. “boli group creating new chamber folklore embracing the playing of instruments, not the played, but that which is playing for the sake of future focus and edit into the very minerals of instrument, intuition, emotion, fragility underlying, the warning, always pulsating acts of drama, wet leaves, asphalt, pan to right, agriculture and electricity poles a container ship, lonely in horizon hoping for a clear thought, but everything existing as conspiracy the sound of a search, uncertain and always asking, for certainty is false, showing sceneries changing permanently and forever narrating, like a panorama of grey clouds, keeping humidity levels high, heating up before the release of water and lightning investigation for folk instruments. What are their songs and where will they go, over time, woven together like a piece of fabric created to stand against the lethal winds”
