'What You Thought Was Home' contains eight beguiling compositions by Kjetil Mulelid, expertly balancing energetic, often rhythmically complex and harmonically rich music with beautiful and evocative melodies. It's not all about Mulelid though, since bassist Bjorn Marius Hegge and drummer Winther effortlessly conjure additional layers, tones and textures, incorporating a sense of calm. The result is an unhurried yet constantly unfolding sound world which can be said to be distinctively Scandinavian.
