Also: Igloo, with Sidsel Endresen More info from the artist: All Ice Records is possibly the only record company building a new studio for every recording session. The recording of "Two Moons" was done at Geilo, Norway in two specially built igloos 9 - 14 January 2006. The weather conditions were severe, and the sleet, snow and wind at times made its way into the igloo, and can be heard at times in the recording. Per Jørgensen made four ice trumpets and was given a separate igloo as a recording booth. All the trumpets were played to bits during the sessions. Terje Isungset had ice of fantastic quality delivered from Vatsfjorden in Leveld. It provided exceptionally long sustaining soft tones. Two of the tunes were recorded live at the midnight outdoor concert of Ice Festival 1. It was minus 5 degrees, cloudy and quiet. As the last sounds faded, the sky cleared, and the full moon shone onto the onlookers. Hence the title Two Moons. Tor Magne Hallibakken was the recording engineer for the live concert. He was sheltered in a heated lavvo. All Ice Records er trolig det eneste plateselskapet i verden som bygger et nytt lydstudio for hver ny innspilling. Innspillinga til "Two Moons" ble gjort på Geilo i to separate spesialbygde igloer i perioden 9 - 14 Januar 2006. Under innspillingsperioden var det til dels veldig dårlig vær med kraftig vind, sludd og snø. Tidvis kunne en høre vinden inne i igloen. Per Jørgensen laga seg 4 trompeter av is og han fikk sin egen iglo til disposisjon. I løpet av tre dager i studio var alle trompetene til Per "spilt ned". Terje Isungset fikk is levert fra Vatsfjorden i Leveld. Is av fantastisk kvalitet. Den gav lange mjuke toner. To av låtene ble spilt inn live under Full Moon Concert ved Icefestival på Geilo den 15 Januar. Denne konserten var ved midnatt og det var minus 5 grader, skya og vindstille. I det øyebikk siste tone av Isungsets solo konsert ble spilt, klarna det opp og månen skinte ned på oss. Derfor tittelen Two Moons. Det kjentes. Tor Magne Hallibakken var lydteknikker under innspillinga. Han var plassert i en lavo med innebygd varmovn
