Sandra Kolstad has used her own experiences and transformed them into strong, yet
vulnerable works about pain and finding a way out. Kolstad uses the distinct world of
modular synthesizers to create a warm, yet distant, stringent and floating soundscape.
“Catch 22” is the last single before she reveals the whole story in album format
Burning Love May 10th
Kolstad has tried to develop a language that depicts the different stages of a toxic
relationship: The distortion of reality, the uncertainty, the abuse of power and the
feeling of losing oneself. And in the end, hopefully, finding a way back to yourself,
and maybe even something new.
Sandra about “Catch 22”: is a love song cast out to an unidentified recipient. The
intimacy that can instanty develop between two people who don’t know each other.
It’s also a song about what one is willing to do for the experience of love. Falling in
love involves a great deal of hope, and courage, and the very real possibility of being
very disappointed.
