Музыка и песни Nilssen-Love, Paal / Nilssen-Love, Paal

The Ex has been going to Ethiopia for quite a while. The first tour, with Han Bennink, in the north, was in 2002. The next one, in the south, during 2004. Everywhere we went we experienced a big demand for 'new' music. While most people from outside still seem to think that Ethiopia is only about pro-blems and misery, young Ethiopian musicians are hungry for information. Through all the new and improvised music festivals we play, The Ex has connection with many adventurous musicians. So we started a series of projects in Ethiopia. With break-core pop duo Zea in May 2008, followed by Silent Block from France (Tables full of self-made instruments, experimental electronica and much more), in May 2009. And then two projects with 'saxophone'. Not only did we bring Friso Heidinga from the saxophone repairshop'Amsterdam Winds', who fixed dozens of instruments, but also great players like Ken Vandermark, Ab Baars, Mats Gustafsson, who performed in combination with The Ex members and Norwegian Record Label: Terp Style: Dub
