Kobi is not a solo project or a fixed band, but a setting where I try out musical ideas different from the other projects where I am involved. I prefer to do this together with others, because I feel there comes a new dimension in the co-work-process; "the third person". Most of the playbacks for concerts or the recordingsessions are processed electronic soundscapes that I have composed on my PC. On this background songs are improvised, making the songs different every time. We focus on timbre by playing with our ears and intuition, instead of following the western-tempered harmonic scale, which we find limiting. Dividing the scale into twelve single notes is absurd, when there are millions in-between. Another focus is space, dynamics, frequencies and depth, more than melody and instruments. Kai Mikalsen
