It’s time to celebrate: I’ve joined a gang

It’s true; I’ve joined a gang and this is our gang sign. A bit complicated to do on your own, though.

Return of Hjort of the week, sort of.

As the title states, Hjort of the week will return. Sort of. I won’t be doing any more pictures, but I will remake the website and make it public again. That’s all for now.

Late interview translation

I’ve mentioned before that I was working on an English translation of an interview I did earlier this year, in July to be exact, and now it’s finally done. Thanks to Rec and Katti for proof-reading it. Nothing else to report, yet.

Don’t be alarmed – it’s only techno

Two days ago I bought a new mobile/cell phone since my old one was close to giving up, though it had served me well since I bought it back in 2004 or 2005. With the new mobile/cell phone in hand I realized that the alarm was far from good. I didn’t trust it to wake [...]

Once again, a new month.

Here we go, the final(?) time I write a post about a single Year of the Deer track. December is here and so is the November track. As both inspiration and motivation has been a bit on the low side this track was pretty much rushed in a couple of hours, not my best track [...]

Sold out

After posting about there only being one copy left of Not What I Thought on a forum on Discogs, I got a PM from a fellow Swede who said “What the hell, I’ll buy it”, later he sent another PM saying he also wanted a copy of Not That Human (of which I now only [...]

Confusion, eh?

Earlier this week I sent Necrophilip, also known as La Nausée, a bunch of my releases.

Release: Not What I Thought

A while ago I recorded a seven minute long piano piece at work. I didn’t really have a plan what I was going to use it for, but you can never have too much recorded source material. Walking home in the rain the same day I started to get inspiration for a drone track, once [...]

A quadrilogy, the first step.

A couple of hours ago I sent tracks and artwork to Witte Dood Records which will hopefully end up being released. Since the label has four different track lengths allowed, I did one track for each length. All with a common theme / feeling. When all four tracks have been released separately (as the label’s [...]

Again with the new month

Earlier today I went and saw F.K.Ü., they were good as always. After I came home I sat down and did the final touches on this month’s track for Year of the Deer and it’s been uploaded. Had more source material, but didn’t use all of it. I’ve also started working on a couple of [...]
