RELEASE DATE

Kompakt presents a new LP and audio-visual venture by Danish producer
Kasper Bjørke
and close cohorts. Epic in length but always captivating,
The Fifty Eleven Project
is an entirely ambient concept album that interprets and evokes the emotional rollercoaster Kasper experienced, from his cancer diagnosis and throughout the five years of regular check-ups. The week of the album release marks his second anniversary of getting the all-clear. The base of the album was composed on vintage analogue synthesizers, reverbs, echo and sequencers, by Kasper and synth wizard
Claus Norreen
, in the latter's Copenhagen studio, using the computer solely as a recording device. The violins, violas and cellos are composed and played by the Italian composer
Davide Rossi
, who has worked with
Ennio Morricone
,
Jon Hopkins
,
Röyksopp
,
The Verve
, and
Goldfrapp
. The piano parts are composed and played by Danish musician
Jakob Littauer
(of Kompakt label-mates
Jatoma
) on an old upright piano in a studio, and on a Steinway grand piano in the concert hall at the Royal Danish Music Conservatorium. From
Max Richter
's
Sleep
(2015),
Hannah Peel
's
Mary Casio: Journey To Cassiopeia
(2017), to much of
Brian Eno
's
Music For Installations
(2018),
The Fifty Eleven Project
continues in a rich vein of work by contemporary composers which explores a situation/condition, and is made with functionality and healing in mind. The visual side of The
Fifty Eleven Project
is made in collaboration with the culture laboratory
Prxjects
and acclaimed L.A.-based artist/filmmaker/photographer
Justin Tyler Close
, who has created art films for each of the album's tracks plus one music video including clips from all films. Furnished in an exquisite fabric box, this 180 gram 3-LP clear vinyl box is presented by cover art created by world-renowned artist
Landon Metz
, further cementing the release's multidisciplinary links to the art world.
