Video for "Chroma Key"..almost more like a making-of with the song in the background.
no connection to the band I assume.
New song is sweet and I am certainly excited for this new album You Are Creating: Limb2 which is being released on November 23rd.
The only thing I'm thrown off is why it's sold as You Are Creating as a DOUBLE ALBUM with the identical track list of You Are Creating: Limb1 as the 1st disc/half, etc.
I mean I already own that one on Vinyl.
I may just get the double cd initially, I dunno.
But I would say among a likely crowded list of 2018-2019 albums coming, this is the 1st officially confirmed with a date, thus the #1 anticipated release for me right now.

Well here's a more detailed explanation about why Per left, and what went down. Including 1 of the comments from the band on FB, it seems You Are Creating will get re-recorded, at least the vocals. And the version with Per may not be released, at least at this time.
That seems fine and makes some sense going forward for the band. But I guess 1 or 2 questions come up still as a result.
1) If/when will the version with Per come out
2) if the version that the band are now going to make/finish/modify etc with Sturla is not as good as the Flux stuff namely, will there be a pining for the Per version of this record.
But I suppose certainly as a fan, I want to hear this of course, and to compare Sturla to Per may not be ultimately fair. It's a wait and see of course.
But in the short term, the timing of this record's release seems a bit down the road (likely in 2015 it seems), which I guess kind of sucks, but for the long term sake of the band, is understandable.
But I do hope the band decide to release the version with Per at some point, I mean considering it was recorded, mixed and mastered presumably. Facebook ◊ People ◊ It is time to make an official statement about the proprietor of the main vocal chords of 22. During the course of last year, it became apparent that Per Fox Trollvik did not have the time to prioritise singing with 22. He is an extremely talented man, and a very very close friend, and it has been a tough process, feeling him moving in another direction than the consensus of 22. So we had some profound talks, a couple of tears, some nagging, some laughs, some trueness, and we mutually decided that he would leave the band. · And you won't believe what happened next !· (socialmediareferenceintended) The juices started flowing again. And suddenly everything started moving. And it struck us, that it was much worse, feeling the creepy breath of stagnation and halt, than it was releasing this relationship, and let go of Per. We have done so much, experienced so much, together with this man. We have played so many gigs, met so many people, slept in so many weird places, drunken so many weird drinks and sung so many weird notes together. But what one has experienced must never stand in the way for what is to be experienced, and now the venture of taking the leap further, without Per, is 22's current move. And Per has a lot of stuff going on, and can finally focus on those things fully. For those of you who have followed 22 since the early days, know that we've had the same syndrome with singers as Spinal Tap had with drummers -> they explode and disappear. But fret not ! When one piece of the puzzle moves to it's rightful place, after the puzzler forcefully, and charged by expectation and nostalgy, trying to make it fit where it just did not, another puzzlepiece has just been waiting to get to that place, and perfectly interconnect with the rest of the puzzle pieces . Puzzled ? Me too.. I'm not sure if i said anything at all, or if the sentenced nulled itself out logically, which again would leave me with a clean opportunity to rephrase this uttering: Within 2 weeks a new singer came along. He manifested out of thick BLUE air. And it just clicked. It is so freaking exciting, and everything comes alive (including the hills.) The MUSIC is once again the main focus, and we ARE creating. There will be a new update ( aka MUSIC ) with regards to our new singer. His name is Sturla Fagerli Larsen. Thanks Per, you really shaped the band, and was 1/4 of a god danged thrilling epoch of the life of 22. This next guy, he just picks up where you left, and adds his special ingredient... So now the three of us (original members) discover new sides of ourselves and each other, because we are co-creating with this new, intriguing and very talented person. We are learning to really know each other, and are playing day and night, to manifest what we are feeling is possible together. We will be playing some live shows in november, just to get out there, and breathe and feel the new music and constellation with the audience. We are so tired of not being out playing live. Now we have the four pieces ((abort potential puzzle-rant. red.)) that are committed to doing so. We had recorded a new album with Per, and will know spend Desember recording and creating with Sturla, and release the music ASAP. So, a lot of work. But work is play, so then no one becomes a dull boy. 22 transforms and adapts, so that we can continue on our weird ass journey, and play our music with all of you inclined to our harmonies and rhythms, (and those who don't know they are.. YET.) We had to change, and that is what makes us present. We faced a CHANGE-or-DIE moment as a band. I'm glad we changed. Love, Magnus. ( attached is a picture of Per amidst synthesizers )
( Bye, Per. We love you. ) 6/10/14 11:15PM Story + Video of "Ectypes"the new song, which the article gives will presumably be on this upcoming record.
for the english reading folks, hopefully your browser's translator works okay.
Nice piece, even as stripped down and slow as it seems. Nice mood anyway.
Probably the other most significant thing mentioned in this article. With the new album You Are Creating coming out in September, they want this time to reach out to more and expand your audience.

But for those who like them, but haven't been following them, they have posted regular videos on Facebook and twitter sometimes in the past year.
Per Google Chrome's Translation Function Norwegian to English
22 is one of the spearheads in trondheim rock, and after they released their debut album "Flux" in 2010, they spent two years touring Europe in Japan. In autumn 2011 the band wrote an exclusive tour diary for adressa.no, and a few months later they won Adresseavisens music scholarship of 25 000. Now they started to record new album in Øra Studio, and the plan is that Trondheim Calling concert will be the first opportunity to hear songs from nyplata "You Are Creating" live. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10151760423036504
1/4/14 6:18PM Not a substantial amount of directly announced information by the band or anything, but with a Facebook Photo and this article, it seem You Are Creating could be the title of this 2nd LP from the Norwegian-based Indie-Prog-Pop band.
The same song was shared as a live performance a few months ago I recall. This is the studio version I presume. I like it, but naturally, the style being an acoustic ballad, is different for 22.
In June played P3'll buy you a video with Trondheim band 22 séance took place in an old church on Persaunet in Trondheim, and the colorful group performed the same song that has video premiere here with us. The visualization of the song "Ectypes", which took two days to shoot due partly to technical challenges, you see the top of the case. P3 TREATING: 22 perform "Ectypes" Many coincidences had to fall into place for conducting video. Train speed, sunshine, people on the platform. The film team took the subway back and forth from Parliament Majorstua for hours, while the band, which now consists of Magnus Børmark, Mats Paulsen, Andreas Berg Cool and fresh vocalist Sturla Fagerliåsen Larsen, ate bowl on the platform. - The song is about people, and the video was a natural visual processing of this. Pictures are the aspects of the song that we did not know was there, and so does the music with the pictures, explains the band. When you let your mind wander "Ectypes" was in an idle moment in a garage in Rindal where the band had rigged up in two weeks to play typing up new songs. - Mats began to strum the harmonics on bass, and within half an hour as we had finished song with melody and arrangement. It was one of those moments you as an artist is very humble, above, when all is in place by itself, and it happens outside the practical thinking of the individual musician. The text was put in place after Magnus had a dream about another text he had written. And as he began to look for it in their archives, he came across this clip. Per started singing the words, and they voted perfectly in tune. The vocals on the song from the first time the text was placed on melody. The recording had a completely separate nerve in him.
Andreas Brushing Røe and Ole Jørgen Larssen from TYD.no are the directors behind the clever video.
- Already the first time we heard the song, we wanted to grab the statement from the chorus: "No one knows who They really are." We wanted to try to capture this feeling that most of us have known. And we think well rarely as much as when you are waiting for something or someone, on the way to or from. That little moment where you let your mind wander and you are in an emotional limbo.
- The feeling of solitude and contemplation when in a moment standing still and waiting for a train, and feel alone, even when surrounded by other people, joins the duo.
New singer on the team
Musically, is 22 at the intersection progressive pop and rock, and besides two EPs after debut album Flux in 2011, there has been relatively quiet. But now debut the sequel recorded. The album is called You Are Creating and we are told that the single "Ectypes" is dedicated to 22s singer, Per Kristian Trollvik, who resigned due to changes in circumstances and priorities.
- "Ectypes" is a farewell song to and from As one might say, and marks the transition from the 22 has been and it will come. We have had to turn things on their heads, and found new solutions to things.
- We now have a new singer in the band that we are working hard with the other day. He has already contributed a great inspiration and interesting direction for the band, writing 22 to do a bunch of exclusive concerts in November at selected locations in Norway to showcase the new material, both in songs and human composition. Also unsure, but this image they uploaded to their Facebook may be something from the album/album cover art.
