About the artist

Rymden

If you were to take the cosmic, otherworldly sounds of space and distill them into musical form, you’d get something pretty close to RYMDEN. This Scandinavian supergroup, comprised of piano virtuoso Bugge Wesseltoft, drummer Magnus Öström, and bassist Dan Berglund, have taken the jazz world by storm with their unique fusion of electronic beats, improvisational melodies, and avant-garde sensibilities. Wesseltoft, known for his genre-defying approach to the piano, brings a touch of elegance and sophistication to RYMDEN’s sound. His delicate touch on the keys is like a gentle cosmic breeze, guiding listeners through the vast expanse of the unknown. Öström, with his powerhouse drumming and infectious energy, injects a sense of urgency and movement into each composition, propelling the music forward like a rocket hurtling through space. And Berglund, with his deep, pulsating bass lines, anchors the group’s sound in a solid foundation, providing a sense of grounding amidst the ethereal beauty of their music. Together, RYMDEN create a sonic landscape that is both familiar and alien, drawing listeners in with their captivating melodies and innovative approach to genre. Their music is at once introspective and expansive, inviting listeners to explore the outer reaches of their imagination while grooving to the infectious beats. With their debut album, Reflections & Odysseys, RYMDEN have solidified their status as one of the most exciting and innovative groups in contemporary jazz. So strap in, turn up the volume, and prepare to embark on a musical journey that is truly out of this world.
