TOUCH
Tone 17 CD 2002
B.J. Nilsen lives and works in Stockholm, Sweden. Born in 1975, he began working with experimental music and sound at an early stage. He was influenced by the early tape movements with the pioneers of sonic assault and released his first recordings at the age of 15. Benny founded hazard in 1996 after a couple of years as a guitarist/bass player in several local bands. He has since then focused on the sound of nature and its effect on humans, field recordings and the perception of time and space as experienced through sound.
B.J. Nilsen is currently working with Chris Watson for both live and recorded work, and on a project mapping the acoustic environment in and underneath the modern city + an infrasound installation. This release is the second of the collaborations with Chris Watson after WIND [Ash International # Ash 6.5] and his first release for Touch. Many of the compositions here are based on the live work he produced on the Touch 2001+ UK tour, and follow-up dates in Europe and North America, with Fennesz and Biosphere.
