    Dear Sleevers This is the duo album NOD by MS and Herb Robertson. In remembrance of Herb who passed away december 10th 2024. We worked together for almost a decade. Recording, playing and travelling all over Europe and even Syria.. Playing with Herb always blew my mind. .....from the first time i heard him play I knew that the world would be so much better with more Herb in it. At an important point he was extremely generous and made a huge impact. I learned so much from him. He became my mentor and friend. Listen to his playing and his rare beautiful spirit.... I am sure he will continue to inspire and make a wonderful noise where he is going... Safe travels Herb. I'll miss you. ---- Solborg: “ I really like the way you slowly bend an idea into something new. ..all of a sudden it’s something else and you never noticed when it started changing..” Robertson: “oh - you mean mutation.....” In 2008 the guitarist Mark Solborg invited the American trumpeter Herb Robertson to Denmark to join his quartet. During those days they also recorded the duo-album “NOD”. Melodic, fabulating and epic landscapes unfold in a beautiful, intimate and - now and again - minimalistic universe with ample room for detail and Robertsons unique sound. The music is born in an intuitive space that might have more to do with an approach to life than a specific musical genre. NOD is mutual understanding and respect, NOD is a device for nocturnal observation, NOD is the wasteland to which Cain was banished, NOD is the Land of Dreams and mutating imagination.. During the working process with NOD we stumbled upon these verses that struck resonance with both of us. The Land of Nod From breakfast on through all the day At home among my friends I stay, But every night I go abroad Afar into the land of Nod. All by myself I have to go, With none to tell me what to do - All alone beside the streams And up the mountain-sides of dreams. The strangest things are there for me, Both things to eat and things to see, And many frightening sights abroad Till morning in the land of Nod. Try as I like to find the way, I never can get back by day, Nor can remember plain and clear The curious music that I hear. Stevenson, Robert Louis (1850–1894). A Child’s Garden of Verses and Underwoods. 1913.

    Ny sang! Hør den allerede nu

    a year ago

    Det hænder ikke sjældent, at jeg bliver spurgt, om jeg er i familie med digteren Jens Rosendal. Svaret er desværre nej, for ham gad jeg godt være i familie med. Derfor har jeg indspillet sangen "Du kom med alt hvad der var dig" og deler den nu med alle, der har fulgt mig med herind på Sleeve.

    I efteråret 2023 satte jeg mig i bilen og satte kurs mod Jens Rosendals hyggelige stråtækte hus med udsyn over Vadehavet i Ballum. Med hjemmebagt æblekage på bagsædet, og en kæmpe portion ærbødighed, drog jeg afsted for at møde mit lyriske forbillede.
    Jeg havde året forinden besluttet mig for at skrive mit første danske album, og havde brug en god kollegasnak med en mand, der trods sine 91 år fortsat, i den grad, kunne noget med ord, sprog og musik.
    Det var lidt af en drøm at tale med ham. I timevis snakkede vi om alle mulige gode emner. Børn, politik, kærlighed, næver, identitet og ikke mindst, sproget. Jens gav mig et råd med på vejen: “Du skal gå bagom sproget, for at finde din egen stemme”. De ord ringer stadig i mig.

    Jens anede ikke hvem jeg var, men det gjorde bare det hele endnu smukkere. Få måneder senere, stillede Jens træskoene. Nu bor han i havet, han kunne se fra sit lille hus. I vinden der blæser omkring os alle. I min hjertekule. Jeg er trist over at han ikke er her mere, men han vil genopstå hver gang, vi synger hans ord.

    Det er derfor også med stor ydmyghed, at jeg har indspillet Jens Rosendals kardinalvise Forelskelsessang eller Du kom med alt det der var dig, som den er kendt som i folkemunde. Med denne tekst sprang han ud som homoseksuel. I 3. vers skriver han: “ Din næve var så varm og god” og netop i ordet næve, kan lytteren subtilt forstå at dette er en tekst skrevet fra en mand, til en anden mand.
    Næven, er dermed et kardinalord i teksten, og i dette lys har den franske kunstner Anais Pais skabt grafikken der følger med sangen. 2 næver, der holder hånd.

    Leve Rosendal.

    Find en kop kaffe og velkommen til

    a year ago

    Kære Ven!

    Velkommen til min Sleeve side. Et sted hvor jeg som musiker kan samle en masse unikt indhold, som du som lytter kan få eksklusiv adgang til. Det er en platform, der samler alt fra musik (både den, der findes andre steder, og materiale, der kun vil være tilgængeligt her), filmede podcasts, tidlig adgang til koncertbilletter, særligt merchandise og de historier, der udspiller sig bag kulisserne.

    Find en god kop kaffe og brug fem minutter på at oprette en profil og orientere dig. Jeg er selv vild med sitet og kommer til at bruge det rigtig meget, så du kan forvente masser af aktivitet fra min side herinde. Dette er også en del af en større idé om at invitere mit publikum ind i skaberfasen af mit kommende danske album.

    For nu, velkommen til, smid en kommentar hvis du har lyst.
    Tak for dig.

    Future concerts

    a year ago

    We’ve just started working with a booker, and I’m really hoping this will open the door to many more concerts — so I can get out there and play for you live.

    There’s nothing quite like sharing the music face to face, and I can’t wait to meet more of you at shows down the road.

    Stay tuned — hopefully there will be lots of dates to share soon! 💛

    Vi har inledt et samarbejde med en bookere !! HUrra

    Recording! Finally

    It’s been a good 10 months since I began composing my next album, and finally we are in the studio recording it 🙂

    It’s always such a joy to hear your music come to life, especially when played by musicians as amazing as the ones I’m fortunatr enough to have 🙂

    Can’t wait to share it with all of you!

    Best,

    Jesper

    Who are the real "winners" in this crazy world? The simple idea behind "We Win" helped me find an answer. I hope it may do the same for you xo
