Jatun is Alan Grosvenor
(guitar, keys, bass, loops) and Scott Worley (vocals, keys, guitar, laptop).
Alan and Scott met in Portland, OR circa '04, and started writing the songs
that would slowly form into the mish-mash of cables, circuits, ivory and alcohol
known as "Jatun." They began recording their self-titled debut album
in September 2005, and it's been engineered/mixed by Scott & Alan and
mastered by Carl Saff of Saff Engineering.
The first recorded Jatun song was "Ion Crush," which was featured
in a Nike SB promo video for the Zoom Tre shoe and is also featured on the
Signal Snowboards webpage. In the near future, the songs "Ghost and Grey"
and "The Temptation of Joy" will be used by Norwegian company Helly
Hansen, accompanying snowboard and ski team imagery for an upcoming DVD release.
Additionally the video clips are being used on the Helly Hansen website as
a part of their HHTV program.
Influenced by an expansive range of artists, genres and styles, Alan and Scott
have learned to interpret and appreciate sound from a broad perspective. Such
open ears have facilitated an understanding of sonic interplay, and acute
attention to arrangement and detail. Armed to the teeth with an arsenal of
quality, vintage gear and a penchant for capturing the resultant noises, they
craft music thoroughly and thoughtfully. Lush, enveloping and hyper-textured,
Jatun's songs blanket themselves around your ears and saturate your head with
warm and intoxicating, Orange-tinged tones.

ELEVENTHFLOORRECORDS
was founded in the very warm early autumn in the year 2000 in an appartment on the eleventh floor of a brickstone block in the southern swedish town Malmö. After numerous nights and early mornings emptying bottles of wine and whiskey, partying, bowling, playing darts, visiting finnish metal concerts, lying and cheating, bathing in fountains and the www.eleventhfloorrecords.com was launched on to the web and made it possible for anyone curious to download the mp3's for free. (OK I know, I (read niso) didn't afford (read forgot) paying the bill to hostway , so till I pay the bill our website will not be accessible.) "11th" is a project that does not aim for band identity or genre belonging, but more like a free production of varied outcome.
