Great stuff as always.

The Essential Things 100 – 梶原 由景

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

Just got this book by Yoshikage Kajiwara from the Lowercase creative agency. I think it’s better than HF’s. Can’t wait to try some of the food stuff in here.

One more new Shadow track!

Old minidisc finds!

Friday, June 4th, 2010

Dusted off my old Minidisc player yesterday and spent the afternoon listening through all my old discs. I knew I had recorded some old P3 Klubb and P3 Dans (legendary radioshows here in Sweden) back in 1999 and was really excited to listen to them again, 11 years later. Sadly, (what I remember to be) the best shows had been partially taped over, but two shows were intact.

I decided to record them:

P3 Klubb (1999-06-12)
P3 Dans (1999-11-10)


Germund Stenhag, Linda Nordeman and Calle Dernulf

Spring has finally reached Stockholm!

Flowers!

My soundtrack. Although one could argue that techno from Detroit is perhaps more of an autumny genre.

Little Dragon

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

As a northerner I’m sometimes annoyed by the fact that Göteborg (Gothenburg) seems to be the place where all the really good music has been coming from lately. But I guess I’ll have to swallow my pride and just enjoy the music, because Yukimi Nagano in Little Dragon sings like a goddess.

Little Dragon – “Machine Dreams” (2009)

Nujabes, rest in peace.

Hydeout records has announced that Jun Seba AKA Nujabes passed away in late February. He will be sorely missed.

Head Porter Plus S/S 2010

Friday, February 19th, 2010

I’ve been a bit obsessed with hpp lately. The 2010 S/S collection doesn’t exactly help my condition. I hope most of it reaches Europe (and especially Firmament, since that’s the closest place us Scandinavians can buy hpp now that Super Market in Gothenburg is closing and Wood Wood in Copenhagen will stop carrying it). Tres Bien Shop in Malmö is a beacon of hope in the Cheap Monday-infested Sweden, but sadly they suffer from the (aptly named) “looks-really-good-on-the-web-but-damn-the-physical-store-sucks-and-the-people-working-there-seem-a-bit-pretentious syndrome”, and even though they say they carry hpp I certainly didn’t see any when I was there. I much prefer the Firmament way, where they actually remove the brand from the brand list in their web shop when they are out of stock of said brand. You know, makes sense.
