Silly song. Silly lyrics. One live take. I recorded the piano and vocals simultaneously, though if you want to get geeky about it, the piano was via MIDI. However, if you listen closely you might be able to hear me hitting the keys in the background…

This piece would be so much more awesome if it had: * a B section * some lyrics relevant to the title

Of all the days I had to get up super early, it happened to fall on the first day of spring. Also known as (fingers crossed) the worst day of spring. I spent part of the early morning digging my car out from underneath the ice and snow. Later…

Have you seen the news reports; the kid that lost his hands! the girl that lost her eyes! we'll have to stay indoors today umbrellas won't suffice Acid rains, when we were young were never quite like these We'll have to stay indoors this…

I wanted to end this years record with a tune I could easily fall asleep to and I asked Peter Dematté to play sax over two alternating guitarchords I recorded. I really love what he came up with and have tried to built it into a stressfree track…

There's several things I tried out that worked really well here; the popcorn-synthsound from the Dark Energy, the speeding up at the end, the minimalistic hiphopbeat. The lyrics are a bit too bla-di-bla for my taste but whatever...

See track 4. I decided to kill this this off completely by adding some analogue synthwankery. Features Doepfer Dark Energy, Akai VX90, GPO strings and bongo's!

Is this years' fillertrack. I had started this backingtrack to fit with a lyricidea I had but I decided against the lyric and turned it into an instrumental. I needed an extra tune since two other tunes I put quite a lot of time in were going…

This tune was sounding so dramafree and happy-go-lucky that I decided to write some (uncharacteristically) dramafree and happy-go-lucky lyrics. The sound at the beginning is from my Nokia-phone which I also use as my alarmclock. I was then reminded…

I came up with lyrics for the backing track that ended up as Reset Your Head Again, but since I had grown to dislike that backingtrack I decided to just play the song with guitar and voice.

One of my better tunes this year I think. Lyrics were meant to be an anti-"My Way". Instead of looking back on life all proud and selfassured, this is from the viewpoint of someone who has just realized he has been living his life on other peoples…

The lyrics were meant to be kinda stupid and obnoxious to set the bar really low for myself in an attempt to get over my chronic lyric-writing block.

Another instrumental; some nice sounds and additional keyboard by Peter Dematté

Outerspace, indifference?

Speechwriters can be selfish. Or not?

Hunchbacks!
