Screen Door

As has become tradition, here is my Christmas gift to you in the shape of a cover of a song from the year that's about to end. Of the many songs I've loved this year (check out my 2013 playlist http://open.spotify.com/user/sondre_lerche/playlist/0YaYiFbwJrxf688j9qEPwn ), I had trouble finding one that I felt truly motivated to interpret. So while Wrecking Ball may not be the song loved the most in 2013, it turned out to be the one I would most like to play at 3 am last night. It was my friend, producer and drummer on this recording, Matias Tellez, who suggested we try a little Miley Cyrus this season. We recorded it live at Skogen, Matias' studio in Bergen where half of my next record is recorded (and where Matias also recorded one of the best records of the year with his band Young Dreams). It's a robust little fucker. A song that can withstand inhumane acts of twerking, overexposure, and yet another unwarranted cover. Please accept this gift as a token of my appreciation of you fantastic followers and/or fan. There's so much I cannot wait to share in 2014. This will be our year. Much love and Happy Holidays to all.

Sondre Lerche feat. Matias Tellez - Wrecking Ball

BAD LAW

My baby surrendered to fate
And I couldn’t even say how I felt later on that evening
Stating my name to the officer’s aide was in vain 
Cause I knew they were out to get me

Place four of five fingers flat on a sticky plastic bat
Scan my blue bloodshot eyes for the history of my trials

When crimes are passionate can love be separate?

En route to my cell I retraced every step
and found a way to redact and retell my story
No evidence and no witness to summon or finesse
I confess, it all sounds unlikely

A sweaty, paranoid palm pressed against a leathered wall
The law in all its flaws, me in an oversized overall 

When crimes are passionate can love be separate?

Baby it’s a bad, bad law 
It’s a bad, bad law, Geronimo
Baby it’s a bad, bad law 
It’s a bad, bad law, Geronimo
 
I straddled out on the stand
My defense scrawled on my hand
Killed time and time again but then I lost again

When crimes are passionate can love be separate?

Single from our newly signed Lumikide, from the EP coming next year. 

With a unique, capturing vocal, guitar noise and warm synth melodies Lumikide makes atmospheric pop which brings you into a melancholic and euphoric state. Their background from jazz and experimental improvisation forms an organic sound with spontaneous melodies and untraditional songs structures, resulting in a surprisingly appealing pop. 

Sleppfest

Lumikide - Again

Lone Wolf

Since the band started in 2012, Línt has been exploring and stretching the post-rock genre, both on stage and on record. On "Then They Came For Us" the sextet refines dei dynamic contrasts, their symphonic and avant-garde elements, and the grand compositions we know from earlier materiale. At the same time they have brought in new impulses and element from other electronic music and hip hop.

Línt - Polar

a Van Dyke Parks recreation of Efterklang's song Dreams Today. Performed by Sønderjyllands Symfoniorkester(conducted by Hans Ek) at Efterklang's 'The Last Concert' in the Alsion concert hall in Sønderborg, Denmark on February 28th 2014. 

Watch Vincent Moon's film 'The Last Concert' here: http://youtu.be/d8eVBS7c_hU

THE LAST CONCERT
February 28th 2014 Efterklang performed a unique concert together with Sønderjyllands Symfoniorkester (South Denmark Philharmonic), Sønderjysk Pigekor (South Denmark Girls Choir), Hans Ek (conductor) and a string of special guests.
The concert featured songs from the entire Efterklang discography as well as unreleased and so far unknown Efterklang songs. The arrangements for the orchestra were made by Allan Gravgaard Madsen, Daniel Bjarnason, Van Dyke Parks, Karsten Fundal, Hans Ek and Missy Mazzoli.

Efterklang called it The Last Concert, but they are indeed still here.

LYRICS:
Now that I fell into your arms
My only lover
Give out to give in
I search for the capsule I lost

Drag me to hell
In the valley of The Dalles
Like my mother
Give wings to a stone
It’s only the shadow of a cross

I slept on my back 
In the shade of the meadowlark 
Like a champion
Get drunk to get laid
I take one more hit when you depart

I’ll drive that stake through the center of my heart
Lonely vampire
Inhaling its fire
I’m chasing the dragon too far

There’s blood on that blade
Fuck me, I’m falling apart
My assassin
Like Casper the ghost 
There’s no shade in the shadow of the cross

--------------------------------------------------------


Sufjan Stevens, "No Shade In The Shadow Of The Cross"

Singel frå debutalbumet «Then They Came For Us», ute 17. april 2015.
Singelslepp 10. mars, med Klangkollektivet Studio Session på Bergen Kjøtt.

Som barn av samtidas post-rock, var ambient og draumande gitarkomposisjonar nøkkelord for Línt sitt utgangspunkt ved oppstarten tilbake i 2012. Med dynamiske kontrastar, symfoniske og avantgardistiske element frå postrock-tradisjonen kombinert med elektroniske element frå trip hop, framkaller Línt mektig popmusikk med gåsehudtendensar.
