Moe

Norwegian composer Ole-Henrik Moe is just as happy to be referred to by his coincidentally sonically consonant initials – OHM – and Rune Grammophon's two-CD set, Ole-Henrik Moe: Ciaconna – 3 Persephone Perceptions, consists of two very long solo violin works performed by Moe's wife, violinist Kari Rønnekleiv. A one-time student of Xenakis, Moe is a very busy composer whose extensive work ranges from collaborations with the Arditti String Quartet and playing in jazz groups as violinist to his involvement in electro-acoustic projects like Deathprod and the Norwegian nouveaux-prog band Motorpsycho.

moe. will release a new studio album entitled This Is Not, We Are on June 26 via their Fatboy Records imprint. This Is Not, We Are is the quintet’s long-awaited follow-up to 2014’s No Guts, No Glory. moe. spent most of the fall off the road to focus on the recording the album.
