Testbild!

Testbild!

Testbild! has been played on NTS in shows including Questing w/ Zakia, featured first on 2 February 2024. Songs played include En Gång I Stockholm, Caryatides and Soft Winged And Frail.

Testbild! is a secretive project from Malmö, Sweden playing pop music with avant-garde pretentions.

Testbild! has previously released the albums “The Double Life of Testbild!” (2001), “The Inexplicable Feeling of September” (2004), “Imagine a House” (2006) and "Une Teinte Intense" (2007), a thematic album about Isabelle Eberhardt.

The new album, “Aquatint” (2009), the most ambitious Testbild! project to date, is a conceptual piece coloured by the sea. It comprises a short story – observations of a lighthouse librarian – and a short film, which is a look at our world from under the sea’s surface. The music is a dream-like descent into steam fog and black swirls. Layers of cinematic pop and 60’s jazz mix with sea shanties, Mexican trumpets and vibraphones. It is the echoes from a forgotten harbour, where the ropes never stopped creaking and the meteorograph went on ticking.
