That moment changed everything for me. What speaks volumes about Sly’s character is that one of my first productions

Initiated by Shakespeare, who long admired Molvær's sonic imagination, this fusion of Jamaican reggae rhythms with Nordic ambient jazz was a bold artistic gamble that paid off beautifully. Dunbar's dry, precise dru
