The album I Remember Oranges arises from a desire to capture the living, unfiltered moment, music as it unfolds in the room. After years of extensive touring both in Norway and internationally, the duo Siril Malmedal Hauge and Kjetil Mulelid have developed a close and intuitive interplay. On this new album, they place that very connection at the centre. Through a selection of original compositions, alongside a few carefully chosen favourites by others, the duo chose to record most of the material live in the studio, often in a single take. The recordings have been selected and assembled with a focus on atmosphere, presence and flow. The result is an album that reflects the spontaneity of the moment and the unique magic that arises when music is allowed to move freely between musicians and space.The title I Remember Oranges is taken from Molly Drake’s beautiful song of the same name and reflects the album’s thematic core.In recent years, Siril Malmedal Hauge and Kjetil Mulelid have established themselves as prominent voices in the Norwegian music scene, with extensive touring, Spellemann nominations, and critically acclaimed releases that have gained international attention. Both together and individually, they have become important artists of their generation.The two musicians have collaborated in various constellations since 2013 and have performed at festivals and venues across Norway, including through Siril’s solo project. In autumn 2022, they formally established their duo, and since then have developed their distinctive interplay and musical language through concerts in countries including Norway, Romania, France, Portugal, South Korea, China and Japan.With I Remember Oranges, they invite the listener into a musical space where presence, spontaneity and deep listening take centre stage—an album that allows the music to breathe, and reminds us of the value of fleeting moments.
