In Kjetil and his band’s music we can find some influences taken from Keith Jarett, Bill Evans and less Pat Metheny’s legacies, but originality and one specific view, a pianist has included in presented themes. Many emotion pictures, different atmospheric moods, as same as constant rhythm changes, are evident in complete album’s material.
