
I was feeling fed up.
There were pictures and sounds, colors and movement, big letters and exclamation marks. My senses was being bombarded and stimulated. I felt an urge to reach for my wallet.

The public space has been under siege for as long as I’ve been alive. The message to consume is omnipresent. Somewhere in the back there are shareholders, owners, investors with the goal of making more money.

The way they go about it, I thought as my hand went in to my pocket in search of my wallet, is to make us believe that we are missing something; looks, status, love, happiness.

As I looked around I could see that there’s a great deal of creative effort invested in getting this message across. There are superficial variations on the theme and some obvious showmanship involved from time to time. But underneath it all there is the same, repeating, monotonous drive to Make More Money. At times there is the impression of novelty and freshness but it soon returns to the same beat and recognizable old theme.

After this brief moment of clarity I started to feel a bit annoyed and bored. All these incarnations of the same underlying imperative felt transformed, I could now observe them in a, for me, new light. So I observed and then i made a song about it. I hope you enjoy it.

Delayed Disasters

The feeling when that idea that's been swimming around trying to hide in your subconscious finally floats up to the surface.

Incubando

Living la vida sofa and watching the real housewives of my fever-induced dreams. This song tries to emulate the sound of me running between checking my temperature and watching daytime-TV. 

The Flu

A.k.a The Berserk Blues. Tension building. Release anticipated.

Frenzy

“People want to be loved; failing that admired; failing that feared; failing that hated and despised. They want to evoke some sort of sentiment. The soul shudders before oblivion and seeks connection at any price.” 
- Hjalmar Söderberg in Doctor Glas

"Man vill bli älskad, i brist därpå beundrad, i brist därpå fruktad, i brist därpå avskydd och föraktad. Man vill ingiva människorna något slags känsla. Själen ryser för tomrummet och vill kontakt till vad pris som helst." 
- Hjalmar Söderberg i Doktor Glas

Tell me what you know
Tell me what you want
Damned if You do

If You Don't

I am a Musician, Songwriter, Producer and Geek from Sweden. 

I'm constantly looking for new ways to make myself smile using fingers, keys, software, guitars and vocal cords.

I hope you'll smile too.
