Polar Grooves: Ice Instruments

A live performance by musician Terje Isungset is guaranteed to send shivers down your spine - as the instruments he plays are made entirely out of ice.

Terje, from Bergen in Norway, became known as the Iceman after he started making music with instruments carved out of blocks of ice drawn from a nearby lake.

His amazing frozen creations include harps, trumpets, horns, guitars, marimbas and even a iceridoo - a frozen version of the Australian didgeridoo.

Terje claims every instrument he makes has a unique sound and while one ice horn he created was used for 50 performances many only last for a single session.

He said: 'I have to listen to my instrument. Instead of deciding how it's going to sound, the instrument decides how I'm going to play.

'I can never practice on my instrument because my instrument is new every time.This is one thing that's difficult.'

Steppenwolf - The Pusher

  

LYRICS:

You know I smoked a lot of grass.
Oh Lord! I popped a lot of pills.
But I've never touched nothin'
That my spirit couldn't kill.
You know I've seen a lot of people walking 'round
With tombstones in their eyes.
But the pusher don't care
If you live -- or if you die.
God Damn! The pusher.
God Damn! The pusher.
I said God Damn! God damn the pusher man.
You know the dealer, the dealer is a man
With a lump of grass in his hand.
But the pusher is a monster
Not a natural man.
The dealer for a nickel
Goin to sell you lots of sweet dreams.
Ah...but the pusher will ruin your body;
Lord he'll leave your mind to scream.
God Damn! The pusher.
God Damn! God damn the pusher.
I said God Damn! God damn the pusher man.
Well now if I were the president of this land
You know I'd declare total war on the pusher man.
I'd cut him if he stands, and I'd shoot him if he run,
And I'd kill him with my bible, and my razor and my gun....
GOD DAMN! The pusher
God damn the pusher.
I said God damn! God damn the pusher man!
