Norwegian documentary film-maker, circuit-bent instrument fan and sound collector Espen J. Jörgensen and Swiss-based musician and composer Rupert Lally have enjoyed a fruitful collaboration over the past eighteen months. Beginning with Stillium Partita and shortly to conclude with the release of This Is Art, the pair have released four very different albums on Jörgensen's own Nostudio imprint, including Noisense with Bradley Walther while recent single 'Greece @ Peace' found Jörgensen's field recordings from a trip to a Greek island in 2009 blended with delicate synth work from Lally and haunting bouzouki from Lakis Karnezis.
Jörgensen collaborated with Simon Fisher Turner on the Soundescapes album released by Mute in 2011; the track 'Soundescape' from that album was remixed by Lally, providing the genesis of this pairing. Jörgensen's movie The Sequential Art was completed in 2012 while Lally is working on a new project, Flöör, with singer Camilla Matthias. 'Clues In The Rain', Lally and Jörgensen's contribution to MuteResponse, is an exclusive, previously unreleased track.
