Here’s a shorter version of a longer drone rock morning mass, that I made to play at our mornings and my evenings. A monotonic psychedelic soundscape that refreshes me, maybe you too, enjoy!
Jim & George Morrison and the USS Liberty
I remember a school class we had with the topic on the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s culture, politics, history and so on. Anyway, we saw the horrible and historically incorrect film by Oliver Stone on The Doors.
‘Vanya’ by Mylla 10 Years After
In 2007 one of the main fun energetic albums was Mylla’s Vanya, which was released by Subliminal Sounds. On the 25th of August the same year I went to Stockholm led by a spontaneous decision after seeing the one-day psych festival announcement for Festen i Vinterviken on some artists Myspace.
‘Häxan’ by Dungen
In August of 2014 I saw Dungen perform an amazing live music set to the silent animated film The Adventures of Prince Achmed (1926). The show left everyone yearning for more,
Julian Jay Savarin & Great Progressive Rock
I want to keep an artists name alive in this post, it’s Julian Jay Savarin. Who was a Dominican-British musician and released two amazing psychedelic rock albums and besides that also wrote some sci-fi books.
Cary Grace Live
The past month I got the chance to see and hear one of my favorite artists live, Cary Grace (interview with her). She’s just released a live album called The Uffculme Variations and posted a fantastic live concert excerpt from earlier in May this year.
‘The Empyrean’ by John Frusciante still holds up with magic
In 2010 a drunken zen teacher told me about John Frusciante’s album The Empyrean and how it was so powerful and subtle, hot John makes great guitar work that suits the music never blowing it over.
We’re still dancing
I want to continue on the timeline of my last blog post, When I lost my passport in India & Destroyed Bollywood, and share some moments upon my return,
Skymningslandet – Fine Swedish Psych Krautrock
Early this spring an appertizer was released of Skymningslandet and what was about to be released. Time went and now it was finally released by Zeon Light that is run by Joakim Granlund,
‘Tygerland’ by Cary Grace
Cary Grace is one of my favorite artists and a tarot-rock queen, who’s hot up with a new album called Tygerland. In 2009 she released Perpetual Motion which is according to me one of the best album ever.
Ovo (drone rock)
Ovo (meaning ‘this’ in Bosnian) is a drone rock composition that I recorded in late 2009. The instruments used are a bas played with a bow, doubled binaural guitars, 12 string acoustic guitar as the rhythm,
SAW – ‘No Way Black’
Idag släpps No Way Black från duon SAW på vinyl genom Lamour Records. Musikerna Tomas Järmyr och Eirik Havnes har gjort en riktigt skön soundscape skapad av gitarrer,
Geiger NovFest på Atalante
Geiger anordnar för första gången någonsin på Atalante en minifestival på två dagar, NovFest. Atalante är en av mina favoritscener och kvällen blev späckad med en skön blandning av musik, men också grejer akterna hade på scenen.
Skivbutiken Galaxy Gramophone Records i Göteborg
I början av september gick jag runt i stan och letade efter något ställe som hade bra CD, för min roadtrip till Bergen. Det finns en skivbutik jag gått förbi sedan tonåren men aldrig gått in i och som alltid strålat ut färgstark etno,
Beglomeg Photos from ‘Phonofestivalen’ in Bergen
The biggest surprise of energy was the band from Oslo called Beglomeg. They music was an extreme danceable energetic mix of rhythms, melodies, art- and glam rock, punk, MAGMA and spaghetti western. A total post apocalyptic meltdown in other words.
Sprängd!
På säsongspremiären för Club Lamour, på Fylkingen i Stockholm, spelade det sprillans nya bandet Sprängd! och gjorde starkt intryck. Deras musik var elektronisk, rytmisk och med sköna echo-elpiano fraseringar och melodier i någon slags 60-tals garagestil.
Dungen & The Adventures of Prince Achmed
The Adventures of Prince Achmed på Cinemateket var vacker upplevelse och det är helt otroligt hur detaljerat arbete som låg bakom den här animerade stop motion-filmen. I hela tre år fick skaparna klippa ut alla figurer och fotografera enskilda rörelser –
Damo Suzuki with Lerin / Hystad
Last night I saw Damo Suzuki for the first time. Together with the couple and duo Lerin / Hystad, which I interviewed earlier this year about their music, relation with Damo and then freshly released album Mount Buzhou.
