Dear Loppa. 💖

Tonight you had to leave us, after 16 long years. It was a difficult choice for Mona, but one that I wholeheartedly support – even though it hurts so much knowing that you will never ride along with me on our trips to Valdres again. Never again will you lie next to me in bed, cuddlin. Never again shall we go for long walks and smell all those exciting things along the road, and never again enjoy those treats that you never could get enough of.

It has been eight great years with you, since 2013, when I first started babysitting you, Liza & Thelma. You stole everyone's hearts with your kind and soft manner. Never did you bark, nor jump on anyone or even lick them down like most other dogs do. You were just quiet  and welcomed cuddles for as long as you could have it – otherwise you would just go and lay down  silently in your basket. ❤

I cannot count how many miles of car trips you have taken with me, nor all the walks in the woods. A tired soul has been laid to eternal rest now. And you deserve it so well, little friend. I could see how tired you were these past few years, poor sight, no hearing, stiff and aching joints etc. It would have been malpractice to keep you going at it any further. But still... we all wish we could have one last summer with you also. Our hearts bleed and the tears flow. If there is any afterlife, I know you're in doggy heaven with Thelma and Liza.

Thank you very much Mona, for all the trust I have been given babysitting your dogs. Words can not measure how much love they have given me and mom these years. And thank you for that last little farewell I had with her yesterday at your place. The biggest and warmest hugs as I know how hard this evening have been for you.

There's new shining star in the sky tonight. 💖

Song for Loppa

Song For Loppa

Found myself creating this track which pretty much sounds like it belongs on Kantarelle EP, but I had way too much fun making it. Anyway, hope you enjoy it!

Plingonberries

Latest song, somewhat long in the making due to insane hours at work. The Pandemic certainly is over because everyone is having events and stuff which means I'm staying at hotels for weeks on end, barely home to change clothes!  

Had a crazy idea of showing the project playing in realtime from Digital Performer on this one, but alas.. my 2013 mac doesn't really like capturing smooth video no matter what I adjust, enable/disable or reduce payload when playing so the video turned out jerky as hell and unusable. But I just don't have the energy nor the time to shoot multiple camera angles of playing parts so it's just a bunch of stock content footage.

Started using Nexus3 pads and bass, but then the rest of my MKS, TX and various KORGs joined in. :)

Without You

One of my many unfinished projects that have been bugging me for some years now. Took a long time to finish the song and record the video during a insane workload these past months at my daytime job. But it's done now. 

This was originally intended as song dedicated to my late mom, but we never got around to make lyrics and it just fizzled out. It became an instrumental track after all, still dedicated to the loss of those dear to me. 

Used a lot of Roland MKS as usual and some Yamaha. Even a good deal of Ensoniq gear too as well as Nexus4 for the intro arpeggios in the background.

Retrospect

The Comedy of Horror (8bit Mix)

Just one of those songs that came out of nowhere. I felt I hadn't made anything worthwhile in a long time and just started on the initial arpeggio groove, added some Yamaha TX816 bells and leads, and the rest just fell into place like pearls on a string.

I asked my friends Håvard and Terje if they wanted to add some proper guitars instead of the MIDI guitars I laid down initially, and this is the result.  Pull down the roof on your convertible and start cruisin'! ;)

Noir Nights (Original Synthwave Track)

I always felt that the Tel Me More project should have it's own theme, separate from the remakes, to honor my backers (contributors)... When I came up with the name "Tel Me More" I meant showing more of me, uncensored, pure and free. This is still a work in progress as it's formally called. I hope you guys and galls appreciate what I'm trying to achieve with my music for you... and also that this track shows some insight into my raw spirit.

It's also an ode to my "tracker friends" from all the way back!
(You know who you are!)

Enjoy... and ... play it loud! (that's how it was composed).

Lightforce (ft Lea)

"I Want To Be Free" is named after the thought of wanting to be free; to think and act upon your own inner instinct rather than being (in)formed by the opinion of the media or random other people. It doesn't reflect that you don't need other people, but that you have the freedom to choose who is around you and who you trust your reality with.

An original Amiga demoscene oldskooler and current video games composer, the name TDK was originally active in the early 90’s writing catchy and melodic chiptunes for the likes of Anthrox, Crystal and Melon Dezign. Having 'retired' from the scene in 1993 I went on to write the music for such games as Wing Commander (Amiga), Duke Nukem Total Meltdown, Populous: The Beginning and Dungeon Keeper 2.

The advent of the CD-Rom format, and therefore music licensing, threatened my role as a composer so I moved into sound design within my favourite video game genre, driving games.

As a self confessed petrol head, working for Codemasters from 2008, I headed up the audio team on the DiRT, Formula 1 and GRID franchises until 2015 I went 'full circle' back to composition and wrote the OST for F1 2015. Since then, I've penned the soundtracks for Overlord: Fellowship of Evil, the Indie game D/Generation HD - which I originally worked on in 1993, and F1 2016. After finishing F1 2017, I started my own audio production company, SONiC FUEL.

Never leaving the chip sound behind, 'TDK' was brought out of retirement at the end of 2012 with the release of my first album, Reawakening, and I've since fused my love of chip with my passion for the electric violin to perform a unique chiptune-violin set at SuperByte 2013, Chipfest, and Nintendoom 3.0. 

I'm now back writing in a number of different styles, but perhaps my main love of 70's analog synths may take charge of what I write.

Either way, TDK is back! Flit Kills Moths is back! (until Esso sue for brand copyright).

One final thing; if you enjoy what you hear please consider purchasing one of my albums on Bandcamp for little more than a cup of expensive High Street coffee. Thank you :)
