About Tidal Water: The Tidal Water is the brainchild of Martin Hovden, a passionate vocalist, songwriter, and producer from Oslo, Norway. Martin, the primary visionary and financial backer, infuses his deep societal concerns and personal experiences into The Tidal Water's music. His background in project management and event production enables him to bring a unique blend of powerful rock music to life, enhanced by the collaboration of talented friends from his musical journey.

Collaborative Dynamics: Martin Hovden’s vision is brought to life by a talented team where individual creativity thrives within a collaborative framework. Martin produced the tracks for the album, with help from Txai Fernando as co-producer and mix on about 1/3rd of the tracks," while Leif Johansen unleash his genius in  mix and synchronization on most of the record. 

Musical Contributions: The melodic backbone of  "Polarity" is provided mainly by Renato Anesi, Jims Lehner, Txai Fernando, and Markus Matland (click the names for links to each participant). Renato's expertise in Brazilian instrumental styles and Jims' sophisticated drumming enhance the harmonic elements, while Markus' and Txai´s keyboard artistry adds depth and complexity. This team’s synergy is essential, as "Polarity" would lack its distinctive character and emotional impact without their contributions.

Recording Venue: "Polarity" was recorded mainly at Lindaas Lyd's studio, Vaalerenga Platefabrikk. This outstanding facility supports The Tidal Water's distinctive sound quality, with regular access thanks to the studio’s owner, Torstein Lindaas.
