about

MMXX
This recording is a product of the Covid-19 Pandemic of 2020.
With a sudden limitation by borders, “MMXX” was recorded in three different countries during involuntary confinement.

Illness and even pandemics were a part of medieval life as well. But also, distance and solitude. Due to the lack of present day’s means of transportation, towns and – even more so – countries were further apart. Thus, interaction between people was, of course, much more limited than today.

Many of the great thinkers and scholars of the middle ages were people who had dedicated their life to monasteries – where solitude as a means of reflection was highly valued.

We decided to embrace the medievalness of this confinement.
The source material is harvested from all over the world – but the presentation of the music was born and bred in the creative space provided by distance and solitude.

SAINT LARS CHURCH RUIN
The reverb effects used on this record have been produced as convolution reverbs, with impulse response
calculated from an acoustical model of the Saint Lars church ruin in Visby, Sweden. This model has been
designed in an effort to reproduce what the church would have sounded like with intact ceiling and stucco finishing, as well as doors, windows and furnishings.

For more information regarding this process, please refer to the article “Acoustical modelling of a Swedish 13th century church, and its use for musical production”, published as proceedings from the international acoustics conference InterNoise 2021.

about

Patrask Sweden

The medieval renaissance band Patrask has been ahead of their time - although playing music that was in its heyday many, many, many, many centuries ago - always setting new standards for music rudely awakened from an at least 500 year long nap.
