Yeye

Ain't nothing new. In school at the moment.

Reading Hjalmar Söderberg's book Doktor Glas - excellent shit. Saw The Departed yesterday, not too shaby at all. Kk.

Artisan botanist

Walking out from (system)bolaget with 1 bottle of fine red wine, a bottle of Plantation rum, a Glenfiddich whisky, a six pack of newcastle ale and 3 Innis & Gunn feels good, but hurts the wallet severly.

Here's the Gabriel Ananda track I wanted to post yesterday, it is by no means new or anything. And I guess most people into this type of music has already heard it. Meh, fuck it, here goes..
Gabriel Ananda - Miracel Whop [Platzhirsch, 2006]

Just trying to get back in the game fellas ;-)

Morning coffee

With a bit of a blog post on the side.

The Steadycam + Rice twins Kompakt evening at Jazzhuset last week was good. Been digging lots of gabriel ananda and dominik eulberg the last days, superb stuff.

The plan was to have a track here (ananda), but seems my connection and zshare doesn't get along right now. Hopefully I'll get it up in the evening after school. Hold tight!

Waking up with a trähatt

I'm still 'ere, ok? Cherish the moment.

Electro treat -
Umwelt - Don't trust me

I'm probably the last person in the world giving you this, but whatever.
Thomas Brinkmann - 128 rua villalobos

Well weapon

Okay, taking advantage of the fact that I have internet access for now.. so more stuff.

Try this this on for size and tell me what you think;
Roobik - Flimba

I'm hooked Battlestar Galactica, i'm in the middle of s02.. nice not overly nerdy sci-fi :)
What else? Hmm.. I've been working on a basic multi threaded web server in Java for one of my new courses, it is pretty much complete. It's called Vrede and I plan on improving and extending it.

Well mexico

Still no internet connection at my place.

Been digging Joel Mull's Stepping/Sleeping, Booka Shade's Darko (and the remixes), Isolee's newest, Jori Hulkkonen's album Dualizm (damn, Lo-Fiction is ace!) and Alex Under & Brinkmann's split (the brinkmann track is BIG) lately - oh and Squarepusher of course. Without internet it's hard to keep up though : - (

Short on cash too. Life is tough at the moment. School has been bad, might get better.. 2 new interesting courses started this week. Tonight Steadycam and the Rice Twins will play at club Elektriska Svanen at Jazzhuset, be there or be square.

Until next time.

A track just to post something (anything).
Jori Hulkkonen - Dying of beauty (feat. Tiga)
(as always, buy if you like.)

Guess who

Oi, oi. I'm writing this from home for a change! I've stumbled upon an open wireless network and I'm surfing with slower than modem speeds, hooray. Anyway my neverending quest for a stable and functioning internet connection continues, but it is nearing its end. Won't say when, cause I've already managed to make myself look silly the last two posts.

After my abnormally long vacation school has started again. I'm taking a statistics course and computer graphics (opengl), both seem very interesting. Since I have been without internet for so long I have done some more or less creative stuff; dabbled a lot in ableton live, some photoshopping, a bit of sketching and such. Will upload bits of this asap.

Take care all.

Swedish election '06

First of all; no I haven't gotten an internet connection in my new pad just yet (trust me, I'm frustrated). Probably after the weekend. I am at a friend's house - so no music treats. On with the topic..

Oh yeah, it's that time again folks. Election! I'm having a hard time deciding, leaning towards (mp), (pp) or (v) though, but anything can happen. Should really read up more.

Cheers!

AFK

Have moved to a new place. Don't have a internet connection yet. Will try to be back very soon. Cheers.

Petter - Some Polyphony [Border community, 2006] (buy)
"Petter is a 20 year old DJ and producer from Stockholm in Sweden who is fast forging his own unique niche in the musical spectrum." -- discogs.com
This is a great track, housy stuff. A1, kay kay?

Owl

Imatran Voima - In/Out [Tellektro, 2002]
Ha ha ha ha ha. TECHNO SLUT!

Code ten

":D"

Eedl - Too Few Arguments (No Arguments At All Lacklustermx) [Psychonavigation, 2004]
This is the IDM sound of 2004, enjoy it while you still can gimp! So much better than much of the crap being released now.. but at the same time so much worse than some of the good things being released nowadays. Hippy.

Edit: Managed to catch up on some of my old blog favourites (OMG, LAT, GSG, etc). Big up and much <3

Perf

Hmm. Just testing the Perfomancing add-on for firefox. Seems neat, but the font will probably be all wrong.
It's hot outside by the way.

Knaster & feet 4

Probably the last part in this mini series :)

Monolake - Alaska (f-forge link) [Monolake / Imbalance, 2006] (buy)
Again a coin flip of which track to choose on this fine release "Alaska melting", this is A1, B1 is Melting (duh) and of equal proportions of minimal dubby techno. Heavy shit, listen to it.

Ebb - Life is on TV (f-forge link) [Gaymonkey, 2006] (buy)
Guitar + electronics + vocals = commonly used formula hehe. This is cool downtempo stuff though. The track is from swedish artist Ebb's debut album "Loona".

My usual uploading places were giving me troubles so I had to resort to some other sites, hoope they're not too annoying.

Edit: Added f-forge links, the other sites are very annoying to be honest.

Knaster & feet 3

Another middle of the night serving from the trenches known as Random Circuits. Take care.

Infinite Scale - Fade [Toytronic, 2005]
I used to be really into toytronic, it's good stuff. Here's some really sweet, calm triphopish IDM from Infinite scale. Light up a joint, lay down in a hammock and enjoy with a glass of lemonade under a star sprinkled summer night sky.

Booka Shade - In White Rooms (Elektrochemie Remix) [Get physical, 2006] (buy)
The huge tech house track gets reworked by Schumacher and co. Go big, or go home.

Knaster & feet 2

It's early in the morning and i'm slightly drunk. Part two, here we go.

Shane Berry - Freed [Trapez, 2006] (buy)
Another trapezer, Berry the shane with some pure minimal. Flip side of "Losttime". Deep pounding for the win.

Plat - Trainers [Unschooled, 2005]
Jazzy, fragile, ambient. Like BoC but not at all. Like it. The album is called "Compulsion".

Knaster & feet 1

Been away for two days.
Thought I'd start a series of posts containing 2 tracks, one more of the headphone/livingroom type and one more to the dancy/devil side.

Seven Ark - Glass Shattering Under Water [Neo ouija, 2005]
Great album that I sometimes forget about. When I remember it and put it in my stereo everything seems surreal and a bit sad.

Luke Le Mans - The Docks [Trapez, 2006] (buy)
Minimal wohoo clubby stuff from Luke Le Mans on Trapez no less. A1 and the release is called "Jerry, spring her!" - but my money is on this b side acid stomper. Check, check.

First aid

Arpanet - Event horizon [Record makers, 2006] (buy)
New EP ("Reference Frame") from the mysterious arpanet. Electro with that doppler-drexcyan-'werk touch. This track is a 'electro ballad' (tee hee), cyberpunk sadness ahoy. Go go!

Xom

Just woke up so bare with me.

Dr. Octagon - Ants (feat. Dj dexter) [OCD International, 2006] (buy)
Doc Ock is back! Kool keith's third album this year and dr octagon's second ever. It's called 'The return of doctor octagon' - it bears little resemblance to the original album. This is electronic, modern, fresh and way out there hiphop. Buy it, don't listen to pitchforkmedia - they are wrong about this one.


Literon - Machine 1 [Fortek, 2006] (buy)
Techno. Literon, the release is 'Machines'. This is A1 and it's fucking ace. The other side is not to take light upon either.

Big television

Absu - Feis Mor Tir Na N'Og (Across The North Sea To Visnech) [Osmose, 1995]
Some metal again, from 1995. The group hails from USA and the album is called 'The Sun Of Tiphareth'. Not quite as dark and fast as I would like it but nevermind it's still fine black metal. Yes, I'm a metal n00b :)

LocoDice - Seeing through shadows [Minus, 2006] (buy)
A swift turn from the guitars and shit back into the world of synths, drum machines and computers. LocoDice provides a minimal hymn for us to enjoy. Muffled beats, nice melodies, and some sweet bass later on. Gets big words from both phonica and boomkat.
