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 [...]

I’m not much for celebrating things. I do however enjoy my own traditions. One I’ve had for a couple of years is finding a picture and adding some text to it, every Valentine’s Day. And of course I did so this year as well. Click for full-size version
It’s Monday afternoon, I’m sitting at work as usual. Not doing much at the moment, then my phone rings. The voice on the other end introduces himself as Andreas calling from Upsala Nya Tidning. He goes on to tell me that he wants to interview me in regard of Year of the Deer, I of [...]

Three albums, five EP’s, one split, one compilation and two gigs. All in all, a pretty idle year if you only count the actual releases, but if you count the work I’ve put down, it wasn’t so idle after all. 018: Experimental took a lot of energy to get done, and not just deciding on [...]
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 [...]

I have released several albums and ep’s, almost too many to count (actually 12, on deersound alone). And of all of those almost none have sold out, granted; that’s not my main goal, but it’s nice when it happens. Av / På sold out pretty quickly, mainly because it was only limited to five copies. [...]

Earlier this week I sent Necrophilip, also known as La Nausée, a bunch of my releases. He has now gotten them, and this was said on IRC: <@Necrophilip> please don’t make any more “Not”-albums by Johan Hjort <@Necrophilip> unless thats what you want to specifically do <@Hjorten> why not? <@Necrophilip> ;-););) <@Hjorten> because of the [...]
Today’s my first day at work in a month, which means I’m no longer on sick leave. I’ve managed to really mess up my sleep once I’ve been off work, and started trying to fix it last Thursday. Last night I felt tired enough to sleep, so I got to bed at 23:10. At about [...]
Yet again, I’m annoyed on a DVD related issue. I like buying DVD‘s. I like Jimmy Carr. So I figured I’d buy his new DVD, Telling Jokes. But that was easier sad than done. Amazon.co.uk wants 139 SEK (ex. shipping) for it, as does hmv.com. So I check some Swedish sites; and of the ones [...]
