ORWO by Søjus1
In 2019 we were working on a new album, stuck in a kind of writer’s block. At the end of this year, we were asked to perform a live scoring for a silent movie. So we interrupted our work, modified unfinished tracks and composed new material for this film.
This project gave us a new look at our own music and helped us to overcome the writer’s block. Our compositions got the right form as instrumental tracks. After performing the film score on stage, we decided to rework it again to give the music strength to tell stories without the movie.
This album is the destillate of the Søjus1 film score for ‘The Phantom Carriage’, a 1921 Swedish silent film directed by Victor Sjöström.

2010 we met each other at a farewell party of a fatally ill friend.
Jamming the first times, we told each other stories on drums and on synthesizers. It needed years to find our own way of working together and merging our influences of trip hop, jazz and techno to an own sound. But if music crystallises, we knew it would be worth to continue this path.
