On the 30th of January 2016 a notorious party was hosted at the World Culture Museum in Gothenburg, Sweden. It would later become the most infamous feast in the museum's history and change their party policy for all foreseeable future. Swedish electronic music composers Krister Linder and Magnus Birgersson (aka. Solar Fields) were booked to join forces for a special one-off performance. The concert would center around a set of cross-pollinations of the two composer's separate works. The night was also to premiere the formation of their joint project LUCID HAZE. Unbeknownst to them at the time, it was going to be the museum's last night of its kind. After an unforgettable night of art, music, dance and ecstatic extravaganza the World Culture Museum was raked over coals in the Swedish media. Apparently the press had gotten wind of there having been nudity at the establishment. Nudity referred to the professional acrobats and dancers covered from head to toe in artsy body paint, feathered headdresses and other strange creations. Without there having been any pornographic content or indulgence in blunt nudity whatsoever, the story got spun out of control and the museum somehow ended up in the crosshairs of upset and outraged puritans. Naturally, the loudest outcry came from folks who weren't actually at the party, but were still convinced they knew precisely what went down. And they angrily demanded accountability for what they perceived as having been a hedonistic descent into the underworld of vile vices and degenerate debauchery. For years, the only known recordings of the Solar Fields / Krister Linder concert was a film on YouTube by Swedish photographer and director Jean-Paul Bastiaans. But today we proudly present to you a selection of six gorgeous highlights from the concert, both on CD and 180 grams premium quality vinyl. We raise our chalices and announce the advent of LUCID HAZE.
