In 2008, Smalltown Supersound released this glimpse of Serena-Maneesh's early days. Tweaked and all beautifully pushed to the red.
Most of the material on this double album was released as two EPs prior to Serena-Maneesh's much lauded debut album; Zurück and Fixxations both on Honeymilk, covering the time 1999-2003. Due to the fact that the label didn't have international distribution, the material never got released outside of Norway. In addition to the original EP material, this double album also contains new re-wrappings/mixes, videos and much more over 80 minutes of Serena-Maneesh.
Serena-Maneesh leader Emil Nikolaisen and Smalltown Supersound founder Joakim Haugland have known each other for years, coming from two neighbouring small towns in the south of Norway: Moi and Flekkefjord. They have long wanted to collaborate on something, and the release of S-M Backwards was the perfect opportunity.
