Review

[edit]

Aarset's fifth album as a leader embraces the improvisational power and skill of the expanded Sonic Codex Orchestra. All About Jazz critique John Kelman, in his review of Aarset's album Live Extracts states:

... «Live Extracts», culled from six different venues over the course of the past year. With minimal editing and no overdubs, this is as close to experiencing Aarset in performance as many will get, and for that reason alone is worthy of attention...[1]

Here the band offer live versions of tunes that differ markedly from recordings on previous studio albums, yet maintain the essential characteristics that are the hallmark of Aarset's music: controlled floating threads that bind together the strong melodies and abstract soundscapes, shaded, ominous atmospheres suffused with deep, subtle colours.[1][3]

Reception

[edit]

The BBC Music Magazine review awarded the album 5 stars for performance and 4 stars for sound,[3] and The Guardian review awarded the album 3 stars.[4]
