I think it\u2019s been more than 20 years now since their <em>Neon City EP<\/em> was released on <strong>Type<\/strong>. This is way before I even knew that behind the project was a Norwegian duo who started making music together as friends. This is before I knew their names to be\u00a0<strong>Erik K Skodvin<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>Otto A. Totland<\/strong>. Before I listened to, admired, and celebrated their solo works. And, before I met each one in person, and of course, before we naturally became friends. This is precisely why, when it came to launching <strong>Headphone Community<\/strong> and deciding on who I should profile there from the very start, I reached out to Erik and his partner <strong>Monique Recknagel<\/strong> (who runs <strong>Sonic Pieces<\/strong> imprint) to pitch them this idea (it was actually when I <a href=\"https:\/\/headphonecommute.com\/2024\/08\/13\/visiting-mi-so-with-monique-recknagel-and-erik-k-skodvin\/\">visited their mi-so shop<\/a> in Berlin). This is why Erik is the currently featured artist for the month of May on Headphone Community (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/c\/HeadphoneCommunity\">join us for an intimate journey<\/a>), and this is why I am premiering this track for you today. It\u2019s been another long period of silence for Deaf Center, but the two long-form pieces on <em>Reverie<\/em> clearly show that they have not put their collaboration on hold. If anything, it has only evolved into a hypnotic meditation on Otto\u2019s keys and Erik\u2019s strings, guitar, effects, and atmospherics, designed for a very deep listening session. This recording actually comes from a live performance in Rabih Beaini\u2019s studio, Morphine Raum in Berlin, during the 15th anniversary celebration of Sonic Pieces, in October 2024. This is less of an improvisation and more of a dialogue between the two friends who haven\u2019t spoken in a while. It is truly magical, and I only wish I could be there to experience it live.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019ve been mesmerised with the sound of\u00a0Deaf Center since the very beginning.
