Sonic Codex is an album by Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset.

This fourth solo album Sonic Codex from Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset incorporates concepts from his earlier albums, restates, elaborates and reinforces them to generate a genuine masterpiece, that might be a defining moment in both Aarset's career and the history of Jazzland. Sonic Codex puts forward rules of engagement that Aarset collaborate with the audience, and very deliberately quotes and redefines the musicality that made up his previous three albums, “Electronique Noire”, “Light Extracts”, and “Connected”, yet also points his way forward: it is an innovative present that simultaneously summarizes the past, and predicts the future. - Wikipedia

Light Extracts is an album by Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset's Électronique Noire.

AllMusic critique Thom Jurek, in his review of Aarset's album Light Extracts states:
... Basses rattle in the underpinned rhythmic center as Aarset's guitar plies a textural schema trying to get to and undo the fixed center of the track.
He loose-hands his way around the fretboard, playing against the rhythm and on top of it until everything gives way to some new form of musically crystalline darkness.
Light Extracts is light years ahead of everybody in this game and a few notches above his first effort. This is the cat to watch.... - Wikipedia

Ended the weekend and welcomed the week after a walk in the rain with Connected an album by Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset.

John Kelman in his review states, "...the unique language that he has developed over the course of his previous two efforts, Electronique Noire and Light Extracts, would imply a more formidable technique at play that is simply so subtle that it is subsumed in the sheer musicality of the work. And that's exactly how it should be..."

The review of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet awarded the album 5 stars (dice). - Wikipedia

Morning Glory by John Surman, released in 1973 on Island Records.

Review by Jason Ankeny

...a record as radiant and beautiful as its title portends, comprised of four epic tracks that despite their scope represent his most mainstream work to date. The skill and dexterity of the improvisations here are astounding. Surman and sidemen Terje Rypdal (guitar), Chris Laurence (bass), John Taylor (electric piano), Malcolm Griffiths (trombone), and John Marshall (drums) connect on an almost telepathic level. But for all its experimental approaches and ingenious ad-libbing, Morning Glory is a remarkably generous album, inviting and approachable like few avant-jazz dates before it. So much of Surman's brilliance hinges on his refusal to alienate listeners regardless of their personal leanings and expectations, while at the same remaining true to his singular muse.

Ended Monday and welcomed Tuesday after a swim with Électronique Noire an album by Norwegian guitarist Eivind Aarset.

This is a ground breaking debut solo album, and whether collaborating with trumpeter Nils Petter Molvaer or recording for Bugge Wesseltoft's Jazzland label, Eivind Aarset remains a highly treasured ambasadour of the Norwegian jazz scene. Électronique noire was rated "one of the best electric jazz albums of the post-Miles era" by no less than The New York Times. Melting jazz and electronic music into the most unexpected alloys, incorporating Aarsets unstoppable creativity and very personal sound, the result is an appreciably hearable album.

The AllMusic review awarded the album 4 stars,[2] and the reviewer Beate Nossum of the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet awarded the album dice 3 - Wikipedia
