Tranquil Moonlit Lake
for Virginia Woolf

the light had faded into grey
the darkness rolled its waves
the ripples on the water
is now absolutely still

she said she wouldnt recover this time
leaving her stick on the ground
this is one experience
she cannot describe

she´s changing her mind
time after time
she´s ready to go
into the new world



Tranquil Moonlit Lake

I´m only sleeping (Purple Elk)

This piece was made ca 1991. I find it still mysterious. What is it all about? It has to do with my history of psychedelics and describing something beyond the rational… sometimes music speaks through you and you are tool for something larger. Seriously, I don´t have a clue.

The Garden of Yin (with pixyblink)

Sonya is a collaboration between Dubai based multitalented artist Mohammad Ahmed Fikree and myself. This demo was made December -17. We are working slowly on a couple of songs. The lyrics are inspired by the character Sonya from Tolstoys War&Peace.

Sonya
She´s stepping outside, the moon is shining, It´s cold in open fields
She hear her heart beat, slowly walking, in forest snow
Trembling of anxiety, further and further, she will go
In the darkest hour, all her wishes can be true
In an open space, where stars collide, she is waiting
In the darkest hour, all her wishes can be true

Original Music: Mohammad Ahmed Fikree

This piece was made in 1977 at the island of Öland, Alvaret. Not clear who the musician are, probably; Regnmakaren and Dan Söderqvist, perhaps Gasleben and  Swerre Göhtberg.

Epitaph

Welcome!
At this page you will find a diverse load of songs, both old and new. I started out with the psychedelic, freak folk band Älgarnas Trädgård 1969-76. In -77 me and Karl Gasleben started the space punk band Cosmic Overdose, which reformed as Twice a Man -81, partly responsible for the cold wave scene. In the middle of the 80s Twice a Man started to make music for theatre, film, dance performance, exhibitions and computergames. 
Thank you for listening!

Söderqvist
