Thomas Strønen - drums, electronics

Nils Petter Molvaer - trumpet, electronics
Thomas Strønen: drums, live-electronics; Iain Ballamy: tenor- and soprano saxophones; Nils Petter Molvær: trumpet, electronics; Christian Fennesz: guitar, electronics
Food has defined a new kind of lyrical electro-acoustic improvisation in the course of its twelve year existence. Founded as a quartet in 1998, since 2006 the group has been a core duo of UK saxophonist Iain Ballamy and Norwegian drummer Thomas Strønen joined by guests for diverse projects. At the Molde Jazz Festival and the Oslo Blå club in 2007/8 their guests were trumpeter Nils Petter Molvær, well known to ECM followers, and Austrian improvising guitarist Christian Fennesz making his label debut. The resultant music, with melodic improvising, trancelike pulses, and shifting clouds of sound is highly attractive.
