“SulaMadiana” is a cornucopia, spilling out reverberations of Miles Davis, Gong, and previous works of Molvær, and yet Molvær and Cinelu open up doors to entirely new worlds. The trumpet player did not pay much attention to this fact, but he was surprised to find Cinelu still at the same place even after the concert was over. They started talking, and when they drove to the airport the next morning, they came up with a plan for a joint project. It took two more years for them to meet again, at Ibrahim Maalouf’s all star concert in Paris, where they finally sealed the deal. Other projects in Germany and Poland followed, and the urge for collaboration began to take shape. Finally, they met in Oslo for a studio session.
