Last week I logged into MySpace, something I rarely do. I had one new mail to my amazement. It was from a guy who had reviewed Bleak. Some exceprts: The song sounds as lifeless and cold as it’s title suggests, but only in a good way. It starts with a strong, repeating and echoing note [...]
As I’ve previously mentioned, Håkan Lidbo was commissioned to create a vuvuzela track by Swedish Radio. And I thought it would sound like generic electronica, but it actually doesn’t. That said, I personally don’t think the track itself is exciting. It’s rather bland and it could’ve been any track if it weren’t for the new-found [...]
Swedish electronica composer/producer Håkan Lidbo has been asked by Swedish Radio P2 to create a vuvuzela song. It’s not surprising at all. I’m also assuming the song itself won’t be surprising or anything different from what he’s done before. I have nothing personal against Håkan, but I find his music (while well-produced) boring. There are [...]
Not much to tell, still waiting on the EP’s from Witte Dood. Remixed a Kolme Euroo track, listen below: Kolme Euroo – Yvitupiuano (Lazy switch remix by Hjorten)
In march I replaced all the music on my mp3 player, and just as I got home from work today, the last song was played. I took me quite a while to choose the albums to replace the old ones with, but I got a nice mix. Much I haven’t listened to in years, and [...]
As mentioned before I’ve got three EP’s coming up on Witte Dood and just like before, I’m gonna do a friend version of them. Actually, I’m already done with it, as you can see below. Though, I’ll have to wait until I give it to people since the EP’s haven’t been released yet. But still, [...]
So the CDR version of YOTD came out today. Limited to 12 copies, with a couple already gone (pre-orders and such). The release itself is packed into 3 cdr’s, and I’ve tweaked the sounds and samples of the tracks just to make it better. Some minor re-arrangements have also been made. Haven’t figured out the [...]
First things first, earlier today I dropped off the YOTD artwork at the printer’s, I’ll be getting it on Friday, so YOTD should be out early next week. I also went by my favorite tattoo studio with some 20 pictures on a USB memory, and he thought they looked like fun. So in the end [...]
Walking to, and from, work without music would be hard for me to do. Even walking home from O‘s place without music is hard, and that takes about ten minutes. As you might understand, I need music to work in society and among my friends. Today I removed all previous albums from my mp3 player [...]

The artwork for the CDR version of YOTD was done on Sunday, so I figured I’d walk to the printer on Monday. I didn’t do that. So I thought I’d do it today, but I didn’t. So I thought I’d do it tomorrow, but I won’t. I could do it on Thursday, but I probably [...]
