"Theory of the Singular" with Nils Christian Moe-Repstad, NPM, Jan Bang, & Erik Honore.
Thanks for the other recs. I'll go hunting.
Anybody else in that scene a "must have"?

None of his; you're thinking of Arve Henriksen Cartography, which had David Sylvian doing spoken word on two tracks; or Uncommon Deities, the Jan Bang/Erik Honoré collaboration.
If thinking of a NPM album, I believe Solid Ether's two Merciful tracks, with Sidsel Endresen, are somewhere in the netherworld between singing and spoken word.
Too many to mention:
Hakon Kornstad: Symphonies in My Head and Dwell Time
Stian Westerhus: Pitch Black Star Spangled, and The Matriarch and the Wrong Kind of Flowers
Mats Eilertsen: Skydive, SkyDive Trio, Radio Yonder
Elephant9 - all four albums (!)
Jan Bang: ...and Poppies from Kandahar
Arve Henriksen: Cartography, Sakuteiki, Strjon, Places of Worship and The Nature of Connections
Erik Honoré: Heliographs
In the Country: This was the pace of my heartbeat, Whiteout
That's just a few. The scene is massive. There is so, so much more.
I would read my four "JazzNorway in a Nutshell" articles, as I was exposed to so much during that time. They'll give you a good cross-section. Also, add my Punkt Festival reviews and you've even more.
Wow, thanks for the input. Time to mortgage the cat again.
