TEIP TRIO II (2024)

TEIP TRIO’s sophomore effort, TEIP TRIO II, is a rougher, more textured venture than its predecessor. Hours of recordings became the raw material for a composition, moulded, layered and processed to form a narrative whole, a journey into a world that's strange yet beautiful.

TEIP TRIO II was released through Sonic Transmissions Records on September 6th, 2024.

IMPROVISASJON AV 21. NOVEMBER 2022 (2023)

Sonic Transmissions Records, STRDIG22

On the evening of the 21st of November 2022, the first of a four-day long recording session at Verkstedhallen, Trondheim, TEIP TRIO and Maria Norseth Garli got together for a one-off set of improvisations. Garli’s acoustic guitar, combined with the room’s lack of monitoring, called for a soft and mellow approach, resulting in an ambient and meditative session.

“Improvisasjon av 21. november 2022” is an unedited 36-minute-long improvisation in four chapters, and a record documenting the first meeting between the two artists.
