What is so special about Tuesdays ? "That´s exactly the question – Tuesdays do not really have anything special about them in the thinking of most people, but if you start appreciating the small things in life you might see Tuesdays in a different light", says Magnus Öström – creator of most titles of e.s.t. songs – and Esbjörn Svensson and Dan Berglund are nodding knowingly. "What we do – music - might not mean a lot to too many people as well, but if you let yourself fall into it, you might go on a journey and discover your own Wonderland in it – a trip that might change your life." In that interpretation "TUESDAY WONDERLAND" connects directly to "Viaticum", the 2005 release of e.s.t. The interpretation of "Viaticum" was that the music is the provisions that you take with you on a journey. "TUESDAY WONDERLAND" is the spiritual journey itself that opens new worlds and guides you to the Wonderland of e.s.t.'s music. e.s.t. believe in continuity. Esbjörn, Dan and Magnus formed their in 1993 and "TUESDAY WONDERLAND" is the tenth album on their trip to discover and dive deep into the music. They also believe in parity among its members which might be another key to their success as the creativity of three individuals working together on the same goal simply exceeds the creativity of a single person dictating. From their first album on it was clear that these were extremely talented musicians, but it was from their 1999 release "From Gagarin´s Point of View" onwards, when they started to experiment with sounds and electronics, that their unique and unmistakably recognizable style evolved. But don´t get this wrong: e.s.t. is not about the sound only, this is just one of the ingredients. It is the melodies, the complexity and at the same time accessibility that makes them a stand alone. The more you listen – the more you hear, which makes it difficult to stop the turntable once one of their albums is on. So, get ready for the trip !
