Donner - Hesitant Light (White LP)
This is an Apollon Records release.
While the Norwegian multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Jacob Holm-Lupo is best known as the leader of one of Scandinavia's foremost progressive rock bands, White Willow, he has taken a lot of musical detours of late. First with the 80s-loving art-pop project The Opium Cartel and then with a surprise collection of instrumental hard rock bangers with Telepath's Mental Mutations.
His latest baby, a project he calls Donner, was originally intended as a pure electronica project. The original inspiration came, to a large degree, from Berlin School electronica like Tangerine Dream, Manuel Göttsching and such, as well as synth-based soundtrack music from the likes of John Carpenter and Fabio Frizzi. Among the many guest musicians, you will find Keith Carlock (Steely Dan, Toto), Georg Wadenius (Blood, Sweat & Tears), Hedvig Mollestad and many more.
