about

Human Being Human is bassist Torben Bjørnskov, pianist Esben Tjalve and drummer Frederik Bülow.
The three musicians have all been touring around the world and played with a wide range of acclaimed international artists and are excited about this new constellation. Human Being Human sonically explores and challenges the acoustic jazz trio. With elements of electronica and ambient landscapes, the trio's sound universe and possibilities are expanded.
The trio's main elements are depth, humor and presence. The heart of the music is at the forefront along with the interplay and curiosity.

The trio's compositional basis is to create musical platforms where the music can unfold with equal parts improvisation, grooves and moods. The trio's music has cinematic landscapes, images of intense cacophony. Inspiration equals from Bach's counterpoint to swampy soul jazz but with a core in Scandinavia's melodic and melancholic tone.

Torben Bjørnskov acoustic bass, electronics
Torben Bjørnskov is musician and composer and one of Denmark's most sought-after bassists. He has performed / toured in most of the world and worked with musicians from a large number of countries, especially the U.S.A. and the Scandinavian countries. The concerts have taken place from local jazz clubs to large international venues such as the North Sea Jazz Festival and the Royal Festival Hall in London. In addition, he participates in a large number of studios and live recordings, including a number of album releases in his own name.

Esben Tjalve piano, keys

I normally only listen to electronic music, but after listening to this album months ago I found it kept calling out to me. Now after purchasing it I can see why. I am totally addicted to its beauty and harmony. Thank you so much for the wax version, as it is the only form of music I collect. kaosskid
