Norwegian scando-pop duo Frost is a collaboration between Aggie Peterson and Per Martinsen. Together they make melodic popsongs about changing the world backed by tasteful electronic sounds - more often than not touched by the all-embracing hand of techno, electro or modern disco. Frost was initially formed in 1997 in Tromsø, Northern Norway, with singer/writer Miss Aggie Peterson and Norwegian Dub Disco entrepreneur DJ Rune Lindbæk at the core of the project. Together, and with the extended assistance of Mr. Torbjørn Brundtland (now Röyksopp) in addition to a few other hired hands, they produced the album "Bedsit Theories" in 1998. The album did very well in Norway, and the single "Clouds across the moon" – a cover version of the Rah Band classic, received heavy rotation on MTV in the summer of '98. In 1999 Aggie and Rune released the single "Endless Love", with remixes by Röyksopp and duo Illumination/Chilluminati – of which electrohead and long time Norwegian provider of electric funk, Per Martinsen (also of Mental Overdrive), was one half. This saw the beginning of a collaboration between Aggie and Per, and in 2001 they released the album "Melodica" together. Since then the pair have collaborated as Frost. "Melodica" consisted of glitchy electropop and downtempo airy songs, and received great reviews worldwide. The song "Amygdala" was released on a double vinyl 12" single with a variation of remixes, and the 7" vinyl single "Pharmacy"/"Half-whole" is still a sought-after gem. Now they have just produced their second album together. The material this time leans more towards upbeat "space-pop" with catchy songs wrapped in hard-hitting yet dubby production. According to the duo, some of the mission for the new album is to "search for the lost pop of that golden era when joy and creativity had as big a place in pop music as pure commerciality and copyism has had in the last decades". Their return to clubland can also be heard in the singles "Sleepwalker" and "One Hundred Years"- melodic and dreamy songs backed with floor-friendly beats and a bassline that could move mountains and start religions in the balearic community... Frost's third album "Love! Revolution!" will be released in Norway, March 26th 2007. |
