Florian Janyszek Great bass solo album. What seems to be a very close mic placement captures the sound of the intstrument and the player in all its detail. You can almost hear the little creaks and bends in the wood and all the vibrations of the strings which makes the sound rich and alive. The very minimal approach of Loxbo's to the actual playing, complements this perfectly, as it gives each sound produced the time to decay. This lets the listener all the more concentrate on the actual sound of the instrument. Favorite track: jag och det i evighet.

“Trådknaster is a record (a sunny yellow, beautiful LP) which uplifts and gives me joy on listening, with a bass sound that vibrates and touches far into the smallest nooks of consciousness. It feels like trying to remember a new foreign language without words, with sublime sounds and traces of verbal iterations, crackles and telling deep silences."
- Anna Lindal, violinist

“It is subtle, throughout. Open and sometimes bravely tentative, at the same time consistently concrete and distinct. A deep excavation into, and with, the double bass - but completely free from show-oriented instrument geekiness: this is just music and life in it's core form.”
- Alexander Zethson, pianist

“Something very beautiful that can come from a single double bass. Like a rain cloud to the north outside my windows.”
- Ann-Sofie Nielsen, author
