This is the tenth release in the Supersilent series. Since the very beginning, Supersilent have always moved forward with the greatest integrity. Supersilent's music is collective work, total group improvising, with not a whit of individual grandstanding. They never rehearse as a group and don't discuss the music with each other, meeting only to play concerts or to record. Every recording and every concert is a unique occasion, not to be repeated, and their music lives in a no-man's-land between the genres, somewhere between rock, electronica, jazz and modern composition. It can sometimes appear to be written or at least arranged, again making it clear that these musicians communicate on a high, almost telepathic level. Supersilent 10 brings further evidence to the above. Known as being heavy on the electronics, they have moved slightly towards a more acoustic landscape with Ståle Storløkken, treating the splendid Steinway piano at Rainbow with some great playing. Supersilent 10 features some of the band and Arve Henriksen's most beautiful and lyrical moments side-by-side with some of their most eerie soundscapes. Most of the recordings on this album were done by Jan Erik Kongshaug at Rainbow with some recordings from the Supersilent 8 sessions from 2005 added. Mixed by Helge Sten. Members include: Helge Sten (audio virus, electric guitar), Ståle Storløkken (grand piano, keyboards), Arve Henriksen (trumpet, electronics).
