Something is always cooking in the kitchen! Over the 3 o’clock coffee, gossip is exchanged. People whine and nag, cuddle and kiss; kids run around and old people sit, silently drinking hard liquor from small glasses.

The story of modern farming derive sounds from these kitchen stories. Sounds that typify children, drunk people, confidential conversations, they use to paint their musical pictures. To tell stories about our modern farming.

The story of modern farming, Louise Jensen (DK,’80) and Jessica Sligter (NL,’83), are a kind of duo that the dutch jazz-scene has never seen before.  Their immense capacity to emotionally charge their playing and to fly freely past any ‘jazz-regulations’, creates an enchanting musical experience.
Both their timbre’s have such a dreamy quality to them, you simply lift off. Until the rawness kicks in; powerful, stumbling sounds, distortion- they know exactly how to keep the audience at the edge of their seats.
