Some of the tracks have been available for download from his website, these tracks along with the rest have been re-mixed and re-mastered and although some of them have been lifted from old tapes, the sound is remarkably clear and open. The tracks which have Norwegian titles like Ettertanke (Reflection), Kystlandskap (Coast scenery), Sensorene Virker (The sensors are working) and Boen (Prayer) are all inspired by the harshness and beauty of the place were he grew up on the west coast of Norway as well as the nostalgia of being so far away.
