Midaircondo

Swedish electronica duo from Gothenburg that debuted in 2005. Rooted in avant-garde sound art, razor-sharp electronica, fragmented jazz and melancholic pop, Midaircondo has created a wondrous musical universe of hypnotic, tantalizing and direct music. Since the start in 2003, Midaircondo has released four critically acclaimed albums, toured in Europe, Africa, South and North America and created music for dance performances, theater, TV, radio and film. The internationally renowned duo is known for their visual and improvised concerts with an imaginative mix of acoustic instruments, voice, electronics and video. Since 2003 Midaircondo has performed at international festivals such as Sónar (ES), Mutek Festival (CL), Molde Jazzfestival (NO) and Berlin Music Week (DE). On January 21 2015 Midaircondo releases their fourth full-length album IV. The album was recorded in front of a live audience at Svenska Grammofonstudion in Gothenburg, Sweden. In 2006 Midaircondo was awarded the Manifest prize for the album Shopping for Images. The same year, Swedish national TV (SVT) made a music documentary about the group. In 2010 they were awarded the special SKAP/Manifest price “Composer of the Year” for the album Curtain Call. In 2009 Midaircondo formed the record label Twin Seed Recordings with the purpose of releasing their own music. In August 2015, Nordström & Rylander Löve announced they've decided to put an end to Midaircondo, after a last concert at Nordic Music Days in Copenhagen the 24th of September.
