MUSIC

The Grif / Massif project presents songs attached to a mythical universe where the Grif is at the top of the foodchain, and top of the creative chain. The grif travels through landscapes and soundscapes to explore itself as a being and the relationships that makes the Grif so fantastic.

 

 The main goal for the musicians and the label is to produce material that we as musicicians and music producers would want to listen to ourselves. The project is a collaboration between DuB studio, Nustate Studio, Klarinettbjorn and PåppFønk Music Production.

Backstory:

The mythic fable-animal – The grif – exists in the great Massif and in his emancipation makes him evolve into a hunter, a leader, a lover and through struggles and hardship loses his first love, but find companionship in others and eventually gains both wisdom and strength.

 

“Mating call” is the Grifs process of selecting a mate, his invitation, their heightened alertness, his mating call, the break and the goodbyes, the pain of losing a loved one, the following sorrows and the sadness and acceptance of what he has experienced.

The distant cries of “it´s necessary to fail to grow” is howling in beautiful melodies from a far. The lack of cause raises questions of meaning and existance.
