Atlanter - Vidde (2013)

The Norwegian band Atlanter, founded by established musicians Jens Carelius and Arild Hammerø, introduces a unique style termed "viddeblues." This genre integrates influences from desert blues, krautrock, and traditional delta blues within a distinct Norwegian cultural framework. Their debut album, "Vidde," emphasizes rhythmic foundations, improvisation, and an unpolished, organic sound designed to capture the energy of live performance. The ensemble comprises highly experienced artists with backgrounds in jazz, electronics, and folk, resulting in a cohesive, groove-based project that prioritizes spontaneous musical interaction over rigid studio arrangements.
