Go listen to some music

Monday, August 25th, 2008

I just sat down and read my latest blogs from the last weeks, and I have to admit it shows pretty well that blog writing is a new sceme to me.I apologise for this obvious fact, but I promise I will try and keep my chops up and improove somehow in this strange habit.

I am sitting at home working this morning, trying to pull myself together and collect some of my film music stuff to send out to some editors.

Its raining like crazy and I am listening to this guy: http://www.emusic.com/album/Omar-Rodriguez-Lopez-Mars-Volta-Calibration-MP3-Download/11211059.html

Fantastic wild amazing guitarist from Mars Volta, jamming along in some crazy mad situation he created here.I think he is out here on a label that normally put out only electronic stuff and there is also some electronics involved, which is great. One of the guys frm Red Hot Chilli Peppers is also singing on one of the tracks. Its fun stuff, I can highly recommend it on a rainy day like this when you are not in the chill out or downbeat electronic kind of mode. The opening track especially is amazing on this album.

I also just got the new CD with “Battles” which is also fantastic. “Mirrored” its called. They are an amazing band. I caught them live in Webster Hall, New York last autumn and they were fabulous. Really really amazing to watch them live. Centered around the drummer who sits in front of the stage with the crash 1.5 meter up in the air. Its like he is directing his troops into battle from the center of the stage. Go watch them in Denmark when they play the Roskilde Festival this year.

Lyrics Uran

Monday, August 25th, 2008

I finally got the lyrics for the weird track Uran. I read them and thought for a minute I was a little wiser…..but no, not really. They are still very mysterious and Björk like in their non grammatical weirdness. Its like a poem where the meaning is hidden very well..very very well. Its grand words indeed by Helle Chirholm and I love them. Okay enough of that stuff. I will publish it at a later time, when there is a demand for it – or not.

Its sunday evening on this crazy planet and the first day of spring hit the city today with its bursts of light and feelgood. Streets crawling with pale people looking up into the sun to get some more of that stuff. Its like small creeps crawling out from under the stone where they hide all winter, every cafe and green spot invaded again – finally, by people hungry for life – or something.

Listened to Battles EP today – wicked stuff. Check them out live if you can, they are amazing. Its not chill out or downbeat, and they make the most wonderful sounds.
