Hypothesis:
- What if todays/yesterdays Norwegian popular music was transported to another time and place?
- What if Lynni Trekrem or The Kids got lost in a time-machine that ends up in the year 1950 in the rehearsal-room of the legendary Cuban pianist Peruchin? If so, their original hits would be in capable hands!
- What if, almost, forgotten Norwegian songs like Naar kastanjene blomstrer i Bygdoy Alle, Jeg tror paa sommeren and La meg vaere ung adopted new life with bloodstreams that swells with vitality and hips that melts with sensuality?
- Unknown possibilities, designed to moisten up the most rigid sceptic, unveils itselves on the horizon.
