2018

"e.s.t. Live in London" markerar tioårsdagen av Esbjörn Svenssons tragiska och allt för tidiga bortgång, 14 juni 2008. Det är det första albumet som ACT släpper med e.s.t. sedan dödsfallet. Under de tio år som gått har det blivit allt tydligare vilket otroligt viktigt avtryck trion med Esbjön Digipack.<br/><br/>Svensson, Dan Berglund och Magnus Öström på den internationella jazzscenen.<br/>Inspelningen är gjord inför ett fullsatt Barbican Centre, då trion stod på toppen av sin karriär, både kommersiellt och musikaliskt. Året efter följde en världsturné med över 100 konserter i 24 länder, inför totalt drygt 200 000 människor i publiken. Samma år prydde de som första europeiska band någonsin det amerikanska musikmagasinet Downbeats förstasida.<br/> <br/>Efter konserten i Barbican Centre var Independents recensent Stuart Nicholson tydligt berörd av det han hade fått uppleva:<br/>Esbjörn Svensson is one of those rare musicians who dispenses the common touch without compromising his art. He avoids the usual jazz musician's stock-intrade of cramming as many notes as he can into the square inch, instead favouring innovative silences and a darkly intense lyricism that allows his emotional honesty to show through.<br/> <br/>EST renew the notion that the cutting edge of jazz need not involve volatile experimentation. At the head of a sense-sharpening breeze of change currently blowing through European jazz, Svensson [..] gave further evidence that the best European jazz is no longer a pale imitation of what is happening in the United States. Indeed, here was evidence that Europe is now moving ahead in creativity and originality.<br/> <br/>Det kan låta som en kliché, men genom sin musik kommer Esbjörn Svensson för alltid att finnas i våra hjärtan.

Alan Walker, the Norwegian artist, DJ and producer is one of the most exciting names within electron pop music. With more than 15 billion audio and video streams worldwide, and almost 40 million followers across social media, it is safe to say that the 21-year-old has already put a lasting imprint on the music scene since he first made his mark a few years ago.<br/> <br/>He debuted in late 2015 with the single 'Faded'. It quickly spread like wildfire and has since earned multi-platinum certifications around the world, and billions of plays across streaming services. A string of popular singles has followed, including 'Alone', 'All Falls Down', 'Sing Me To Sleep', 'Darkside' & 'Diamond Heart'. Through his successful run of releases, Alan has also collaborated with and remixed music from Noah Cyrus, Sia, Bruno Mars, Avicii, Coldplay, Miley Cyrus, Kygo, Charli XCX, Julia Michaels and more.<br/><br/>Alan Walker has had an impressive run of more than 500 headliner and festival shows, including Coachella, Tomorrowland, Ultra Music Festival, Lollapalooza and more. In addition, he has supported global superstars such as Justin Bieber, Rihanna and Kygo. This winter and next year Alan will be on a massive 'Different World' tour across Europe, Asia and North America.

Perfect Plan från Örnsköldsvik är ett av de nya heta namnen i Frontiers stall. Deras supermelodiösa hårdrock hämtar tydlig inspiration från giganter som Foreigner, Journey och TOTO, fast med ett uppdaterat Nordiskt sound. Deras sinne för melodier, parat med Kent Hillis fantastika röst kommer att ta bandet långt.
