Blowing a fuse at a high altitude must be devastating, no matter if You're in the space naval industri or just birdwatching.

blowing a fuse a mile high

One Perfect Rose

another new track recorded in the beginning of april this year we write 2024

don't let go

Don't Let Go

a new experimental song I've made during the night. Not very easy to listen to I guess, I'll publish it anyway.

Winter's coming...

Ah aa haa

Ah aaa Haa song [demo]

I've recorded a Swedish version of Daft Punks song Lose Yourself To Dance. All rights belongs to Daft Punk. I just made it for fun...

Förlorad i en Dans [daft punk cover]

This song is very much inspired by the song Nine While Nine by Sisters of Mercy from their album First and last and always from 1985. Some riffs are from that song and the lyrics is a freely translated version in swedish...

Natt efter Natt

Stefanie Kisamore and DJ Tubo made a song called In the sunset. Tubo asked me if I wanted to do some addings to the song for a remix he planned to make. I jammed to the song and recorded a bunch of addings, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass and a few vocal addings.

Here's the result after mixmaster Tubo has made his thing.


I'll disappear in the tide
in the sunset I will hide
and my memory will fade into time

and if my sunray should caress your face
think back to different place of me

calm the storm that lives inside
until the tide decides you should leave me

in the sunset, in the sunset i will hide
hide my sorrow, hide my tears in the tide
the rising tide, oooo00

nothing lasts, time moves on
and it moves in me, in every song
a memory born is a memory won

and in the flash i disappear
the sun has set but i'm still here

hide my sorrow, hide my tears in the tide
nothing lasts, time moves on
and it moves in me, in every song
a memory born is a memory won

and in the flash i disappear
the sun has set but i'm still here

still here

Död Planet [swe cover Sisters of Mercy]

a first release and mix of a new song I made yesterday inspired by a talk on AI from The Beautiful Dark. https://soundcloud.com/thebeautifuldark/artist-pro-feedback-year-1
Truth or a machines desire, that's the question at hand...

It's a bit messy and a lot of things going on. I might reduce the volumes of some elements and release it again sooon.

This song was made entirely without any AI. The closest is the processor in the VT-4 I used on some of the backing vocals.

the dark world

Färdig [demo]

I challenged myself to do something different. I tried to make a song in techno format but still not. Nic version of the world if You say.

Let yourself go

a very different song for me to make, it became quiet neat if I may say...

Kom ut ur buren means come out of the cage...

LIstenin g again and I'm really proud of this one. Very light and fluffy in its soundscape...

Kom ut ur buren

Nu Techno in country disco style

just a long repetitative song that is very hypnotizing and you feel owerwhelmed with awe when listening. A place I would like to go to.

I play the sounds heard
drum machine
bass synth
rythm guitar
solo guitar
bass guitar
organ

I do sing through two parallell microphones, one condenser and one dynamic with a VT-4 voice transformer connected for creating the massive vocal sound

the cover art is a photo I took from the kitchen celing a sunny afternoon

equvillibrium maximus

a jazzy composition that is a bit slower and mellow and without guitars

This friday, the 3:rd of october Taylor Swift released her album The Life of a Showgirl. On that album there's a song called Father Figure. Here's a cover of that song in Swedish. Just a demo for now as I would like to add some strings or what not and polish the mix.

Fadersgestalt is the name in Swedish...

I challanged myself to make this as I normally don't listen to Taylor...

All rights to the composition belongs to Ms Taylor

Tonight I played around and made a cover of The Veils song Sun Gangs. I made a Swedish version of the lyrics.
Transposed the song to D major as I played my baritone guitar with open string chords, just for fun...

A very simple but effective song in my opinion.

All rights of the music belongs to Finn Andrews and The Veils

Dit jag går - [The Veils cover]

Half way in to Sober October I made this party tune. It's in Swedish but the feel is universal. Enjoy!

I had an idea this morning and have spent the day recording, this is my latest song and it's called Human Condition. I've lent some of the words elsewhere but the whole is mine.
I play guitars, bass and synthezisers, the piano is programmed
and it's I who sing

Remade the drums

Enjoy!

Human Condition

a short instrumental song with some sex sounds
just for fun, I experimented with some effects and thought I could implement some explicit sounds...

Veruca Sex

a cover of Wet Legs energetic song Chaise Lounge

a fairly simple song but I think I got it right

Bass
Guitar
and drums

chaise lounge - [cover]

I had to clean up the chaotic first mix, here it is a bit cleaner...

a psychedelic version of Primal Screams Movin On Up song. Freely jammed along to the original and then removed it leaving only my out of phase sounds creating an interesting cacaphony to follow, at least what I thought when writing it 🙃
enjoy this psychedelic travel into a curious mind...

På väg upp - [swe chaos cover]

The second version of the same song I made as demos tonight. They are good both of them in their own rights...

Caribbean Nights -first cut [demo#2]

as soon You've heard this song You will say to yourself, damn, this was good...
It's very satisfying I made this two versions tonight, lhe last night in october 2025.

Caribbean Nights - 2nd cut [demo #1]

I made a remixed version of my Wet Leg cover. I added tembourine, shaker and a new drumbeat programmed in my drumcomputer
It beacame another song I think

chaise lounge - remixed version

a version of a song by Portishead originally. They call it Roades and that translates into Vägar, pronunced vaegar, more or less...
I just do it my way that is almost true to the original chord progression.

all rights to the music belongs to portishead

A cover of Hello I Love You by the Doors, I made it as practice to learn a different kind of music creation.

Lyrics (by Stonerjazz & Jo Richter):

Everybody on the bus, Gus and Stu
and some others from Uriah, too, made up their minds
packed up their kinds and kith and kin
and decided unattachedly to pack it in
and Johnny, all nostalgic for the solitude of melancholic bedsheet ascetism, said
"We should go to Zed" and smiled in mild remembrance
"I saw a crack a couple light years back in the space time continuum,
with a sign that read, Zed, 50 miles straight ahead.
We might get there in time to liberate my lost accordion
from the clutches of the local patron
a relative of Mr Smith’, if I am not completely wrong.“

Uriah had a riot
when the dumplings disappeared
trampled by the herds of lust, desire
lampooned by the nerds of rust and fire
gobbled up by fast food throats and street flock trucks
and someone farted, burped and said they wanted seconds
and that was when the trouble started and ursurped the mental landscape
and who’s to blame but some minions from that moppet, Alfred Rufus Smith
who to his simian bewilderment was headed back to earth
in that stolen starship that he stole again, restole and stole for just another time
(the way rebirthing beings rack up karma by incarnating ceaselessly)
from the only holy spaceport of that karmic spacelord on the potted planet
frowned upon by Gus and Stu and all the riders of experience on the nirwana bus--

--"And so it was , they crossed the boundry into Zed, and landed lightly on the purple plain
and when they did, all the holograms on board the bus turned into real Girls and Boys
Would love to say thing turned out well but what the hell , who can tell
Uziel Wivress, Neal Nic and Nadia, jeff and Jo, Stephen Tot and Terry too enjoyed the view as the bus it hit the ground
in the golden grass near the end of June--
Gus and all the crew were happy to have arrived safe and sound
and without a scratch on that sacred patch of rock in space--

see the tarmac flotilla in karmic espandrilles
sharpen their common intuition
and like expanding armadillos
overcome respective inhibition
and cross across the crucial rift and ,riffing, raft the cosmic shift
and wake up in the place where Jonny is remembered as the bringer of the dumpling and the player
of the most beautiful instrument Divine --

Holy Dumpling - End of the line

Holy Dumpling - End of the Line - FINAL

I tried to make a cover of Transmission by Joy Division. One cannot make an exact copy so I went another direction to play it in a more punkish way. Different maybe sums it up.
