A new horizon

I’m working on a brand new EP. Working title is “The Autumn Leaves EP” and working song titles are “Time To Run”, “Grizzly”, “No Idea” and “Local”.

I have layed down the basic arrangement and started to record individual instruments. It will contain lots of cool drum arrangements, harmonies and of course reverb and tremolo.

I plan to release the new EP by the end of January. I’ll keep you posted on the progress.

Stache or no stache

Too bad I can’t grow neither beard nor moustache. It just ends up as a “tangorabatt”. To all lucky men out there – let your beard grow!

Abbey Bored

I was bored… what did you expect?

Twiggy

After weeks of going back and forth I decided to go with my original idea… and that’s a lesson for the future – always stick with your original idea.

Anyway… here’s a draft of the cover. The EP is coming out soon.

Photogenique

Here’s the first video off my new EP “Four Songs About Love” – Photogenique. More videos can be found here.

Bit of a blur

If you haven’t read this book – do it now. It’s bloody brilliant. I’m reading it for the second time and it’s just amazing. It makes me miss the 90’s and it’s just such an inspiration to read – for anyone.
