Autour de la Lune
Space music? What?s that? ....Glistening vestiges of sound and subsonic frequencies occur throughout, reminding us that in space the only sounds we will hear are our own. Tremendous.**** - Record Collector
"Autour De La Lune is one of his most evocative and thrilling records to date. Despite the austerity of this album, Jenssen builds on a rich emotional palette to create a stunning and dense piece of work.

"A journey to the moon is currently a two-way affair, a there and back again. So is this LP, since it sets you on a journey that ends at the beginning. But like lunar exploration itself, you will discover something in the process, however intangible it may be, and the beginning of things will therefore be changed upon your return, made new again. And that, through time and space, would surely please Jules Verne - Stewart Gardiner http://www.planbmag.com
Leftfield Bulletin: August sees the release of the sixth album from veteran ambient explorer Geir Jenssen, better known as Biosphere. 'Autour De La Lune' is constructed from an adaptation of a Jules Verne story broadcast by Radio France in the 1960s and is, to paraphrase Jenssen's earlier work, like listening to radio waves from space. - IDJ
"Biosphere does something very different by expressing something like a lunar essence in sound, one devoid of humankind. This is a subtle work of alchemical invocation which summons the moon into the listener's presence, even at midday. - www.BBC.co.uk
"a breathtakingly beautiful, haunted work which is divided into nine movements over 71 minutes. What is most immediately noticeable is the spare and spectral nature of this music?.Biosphere does something very different by expressing something like a lunar essence in sound, one devoid of humankind. This is a subtle work of alchemical invocation which summons the moon into the listener's presence, even at midday." - Colin Buttimer www.BBC.co.uk
