Swedish multi-instrumentalist Per Boysen creates space-age soundscapes by blending Scandinavian ethnic music from past centuries with modern Electronic and New Age elements. He has performed Octophonic surround concerts in South-East Asia, Europe, and the USA, including venues like Présences Electronique in Paris and the North Sea Jazz in Rotterdam. With a background as a major label signed artist and studio guitar player, Per has scored a gold-selling album in Sweden and received recognition from Guitar Player Magazine in the USA.
"Among the many festival highlights was Swedish guitarist and flute/wood-wind player Per Boysen's Jon Hassel-like soundscapes." (Guitar Player Magazine, USA)
"Per Boysen's live looped ambience music with layers over layers of sax and flute melodies was a real experience, and it was obvious that he is utilizing the electronics as his personal expression without being a slave to the technology." (Smålandsposten, Sweden)
“Boysen has become an icon of as many bizarrely named pseudo-categories as inventive journalists could come up with. His prerogative of 'liking music, but not genres' has fueled his ongoing 'search for unplayed music,' which is uncompromising in its strive for fresh emotions, but doesn't shy away from audience appreciation either.” (Tokafi)
"Per Boysen returns to his looping roots with a set for his exquisite flute playing and absolute mastery of his software, many of whom’s scripts he created himself. He has such a command of acoustic musicianship coupled with a truly vast knowledge about digital sound processing and live looping. I think of him as a giant in our community" (Rick Walker. Founding promoter Y2K International Live Looping)
Acoustic jazz guitar, bass and synth track with a lyrical melody theme that draws on the traditional jazz standard ballad vibe. Electronically treated vocals adding modern cutting-edge textures to fulfill the tasteful design. Instrumental, Jazz, Chillout Jazz
Warm and tender jazz guitar sounding Stick among a hord of galloping pizzicato violins. Evokes a fuzzy feeling but with a tongue in cheek attitude. You may almost hear a funny accordion in there! For the outro a rolling finger-picking rhythm guitar takes over, carefully slowing down towards the end, Instrumental, Jazz, Acid Jazz
Sparse acoustic guitar coming to peace in a vast space. Starting out with a big bang the music immediately enters a peaceful flow. Overheated minds can now come to rest, relax and gain new focused energy from the supportive vibe. Softly burning music for Spa environments as well as media productions, Instrumental, Jazz, Chillout Jazz
Uptempo instrumental for Chapman Stick and drums. Brings the classic attitude of Italian western movies to modern production technology. Like surf pop this music keeps moving forward in a mood of optimism and bravery, with a strike of melancholy in the melody lines. Drum-free mix also available. Instrumental, Pop, Sunshine Pop
Suspended frenzy in a modern electro-jazz trio. Drawing on vintage rock-jazz fusion as well as some 60's thriller jazz scores. In the middle part the frantic chase scene beatings calm down for a while, as a cloud of mysterious electronic crickets reverberates at a distance. Then the speed hits again, Instrumental, Jazz, Jazz Fusion
From spacious mysteries, through funky soul land, and into a build-up transformation along the blues stairway. This track combines quirky vintage-style drum synth trap grooves with free guitar playing in a bluesy idiom. The cue initially brings questions and then starts to build about halfways. Instrumental, Jazz, Acid Jazz
Soprano Sax floating around synthy shapes 'n scapes in a multi-dimensional space. The magic of overdriven tape echoes looping in smooth counterpoint. Music for the sense of wonder when encountering something absolutely fantastic. Instrumental, Jazz, Nu Jazz
An instrumental one-minute solo piece performed on the 12-stringed Chapman Stick Guitar. The musician plays to a tape-based echo machine in order to broaden the sound and orchestration. The music implies both activity and deep emotions. For commercial ad spot, scene underscores or a dramatic cue, Instrumental, Jazz, Chillout Jazz
This piece is exploring a combination of a modern clubby EDM sound with African rhythms and the explosively chaotic attitude found in the "free impro jazz" scene of the late sixties. The drumming is authentic, in the meaning that it draws on performance rather than on loops. Instrumental, Jazz, Acid Jazz
The very first Sax note proclaims "This is a love theme" Yes, indeed, a slow and emotional Tenor Sax ballad backed up by Electric Guitar and bowed Doublebass. The soundtrack for dreaming at a café while it is raining outside the window and someone just has let you down. Noir, bible black and bitter! Instrumental, Jazz, Cool Jazz
A tender Tenor Saxophone riding on a Chapman Stick bed. Eventually fraternizing with a serene Flute and sparse distant drumming. Like a 50's jazz ballad turning modern cinematic. Instrumental, Jazz, New Age Jazz
Funky soul groove with saxophone melodies. The possible soundtrack for dynamic activities in a romantic mood. It's possible to cut at 1:30 and use the first part and later part for different cues. One can also fade in from 2:12, which makes for a whimsy start that sets off on a roll quite soon. Instrumental, Jazz, Acid Jazz
