WATERBODY – Cinematic Swedish Jungle-pop with an Indie sound
The name WATERBODY refers to how we as humans are part of all water bodies and flow together, but we are also limited to individuals. So at the same time as we are free and mobile, we exist in a carefully defined form that is difficult to reshape.
While working with this project WATERBODY wanted to avoid her own limitations and well-travelled musical landscapes by inviting brilliant musicians to give the music wider dimensions. Some songs presented themselves as repetitive states, while others where shaped more like traditional pop songs with carved out parts like a verse or a chorus.
"I guess these creative seizures took over after I had frantically composed music for a theater play in Gothenburg. I just couldn't wind down so I kept making more music. This also became my attempt to play alongside my musician friends and build something beautiful together", she says.
"I had collected pictures of views and environments in my head and had an urge to set them to music. I felt like this was an opportunity to invite the unsuspected to the compositions. These manic recordings took place between February and May 2021 during a time when we couldn't meet up in the studio as before. So we traded files over the internet and I could feel that the music resonated so well with the musicians I had invited. The production work was a bliss! I think we all had a longing to keep on working no matter what."
The first single from the album is "Broken Open" with title is taken from the Jane Fonda quote: "You think you're being broken but you're really being broken open..."
The song is visited by Gothenburg based Lisen Rylander Löve on tenor saxophone, voice och live-electronics. Lisen is internationally active and a well-established name in Swedish jazz, improvisation and experimental music (The Splendor, Here's To Us and solo project OCEANS).
Magnus Sveningsson from world wide acclaimed The Cardigans and instrumental project Råå plays the bass. He and Lotta has been band mates in country collective Up The Mountain and in Lotta's solo band.
On drums you hear Conny Städe, a well-regarded Malmöite drummer who is also an old time band mate to Lotta on her earlier work. He has been seen playing with First Aid Kit, Elevator Adam, Bashjärta, Staffan Hellstrand and many more.
Produced and mainly recorded by WATERBODY in Margit Music Studio, Böste SE
Mixed by Andreas Ejnarsson in Southfork Studio, Hbg
Mastered by Hans Olsson in Svenska Grammofonstudion, Gbg
