Between Interval: Stefan Jonsson.
Audio Mixer: Stefan Jonsson.
Arranger: Stefan Jonsson.
A superb addition to the space music canon, SECRET OBSERVATORY is the U.S. debut of Swedish electronica artist Stefan Jonsson (who goes by the cryptic handle Between Interval). A strictly electronic outing, Jonsson eschews melody and rhythm in any form, preferring instead to traffic in the realm of deeply expressionistic ambient sonics. Whorls of sound-matter move across the wide canvas here like free-floating asteroids, encountering rushes of wind, deep rumbling bass, and the stray voices of synthesized, heavenly beings (with effects that recall, at times, certain tracks on Brian Eno's MUSIC FOR AIRPORTS). Jonsson makes no effort to make his music "tranquil" and "relaxing," adjectives often used to describe a good deal of ambient electronic music. Instead, SECRET OBSERVATORY genuinely feels like a journey to the outer reaches of the universe, with all of the strangeness, wonder, and beauty such a trip would entail.

In a brief essay on her website, Gretchen Peters says, “I think great songs are born. They are born with all the urgency of childbirth, born out of pain, anger, joy, wit, and delivered by instinct, skill and love.” It is this passion for the song that fuels all facets of a career that has brought her to the Grammys twice as a songwriter, won her a CMA Song Of The Year award for the groundbreaking Independence Day, taken her on repeated sold-out tours across the UK and Ireland, and seen the release of seven critically acclaimed albums. Of her 2007 release, Thom Jurek of Allmusic.com says, “This is Gretchen Peters' finest moment as a recording artist, and perhaps her finest as a song-lyric poet as well… Burnt Toast & Offerings is the most sophisticated and truthful recording about love since Nick Cave's The Boatman's Call. It's not the next step for this contemporary singer and songwriter, but a giant leap, an aesthetic milestone that sets the bar higher not only for her but for anyone wishing to write songs honestly about the inside of a life in the process of being lived, a life that holds love as its zenith...”Burnt Toast & Offerings was born out of the emotional remnants of what Peters calls a “mid-life epiphany” which culminated in the end of her 23 year marriage; it’s a deeply personal coming-to-terms record that both reveals and transcends the specifics. As David McGee, reviewing for Barnes & Noble puts it, “a wondrous, wrenching personal reflection on love… Deep and deeply beautiful, Burnt Toast & Offerings is a fully realized work of art.”Critical acclaim for Peters’ songs is nearly universal. In a review of her 2000 eponymous album, the Associated Press states, “This is not jukebox music - the stuff that exists to fill in the pauses in conversation. This IS the conversation”. People Magazine says, “If Peters never delivers another tune as achingly beautiful as "On a Bus to St. Cloud"... she has already earned herself a spot among country's upper echelon of contemporary composers."The daughter of an author/activist father and a mother whom Peters describes as a "free spirit", she was raised in New York and Boulder, Colorado, but moved to Nashville in the late 80's "when they were still signing people like Steve Earle and Nanci Griffith". Peters claims, “I never understood how the music business took people and broke them up into little pieces - the songwriter, the producer, the recording artist, the entertainer. I suppose I grew up with the idea that you made music from start to finish, and I never felt satisfied being one of the pieces”. Rejecting the Nashville assembly-line model and eschewing what she ...
