the 27. and all that will happen before

May always seem to attack you when you least expect it - suddenly we are drowned in good work with new singles, new webpage, new shop, new concerts, new recordings and all the other stuff that surrounds you with passive aggression. Next thursday the 27. we will play at Pumpehuset in Cph with Slaraffenklang - a mix between Slaraffenland & Efterklang - a lovely evening I suspect - actually Kasper, the singer of Efterklang often performed our song Lost Ship live with us, and Anders Boll who I introduced earlier is their soundguy - Denmark is very small...Here is a picture from our Roskilde show where Kasper is with us some years ago:

Who is the best?

We have a problem choosing who of us i most worthy of recording the drums for Dexter II...last sunday we spend arguing if I should play the drums



or Q, what do you think....be honest!




I personally think that I rock, but I can hear that with some more practise, maybe Q has a chance in the future...He is just trying a bit too hard, playing cool and tough!

The thing about making music and dopamine levels

My dear friend Johannes aka. Cabin Fever also has a blog about his music here. Right now his also finishing his version of Difference. Apart from being one of the most talented songwriters I know, he is also very wise and funny, a good combination I would say. A while ago he posted this graph on his blog, and boy did I recognize the feeling going through the proces of making a song:



A few weeks after he posted this I saw a great lecture on the internet about animals and humans compared, by Robert Sapolsky. About 25 min. into the lecture he started talking about dopamine rushes, when solving a task (as eg. making a song) that we humans crave and live for, and the similarity with Johannes graph was striking...

Lyrics Difference

The danish poet Morten Søndergaard made the lyrics for Difference, and here it is:
difference

hi im home from jupiter
return to noise and toys
can't trust these conditions
i have spider sprinkle on

i want to get out of this loop

hi im back from pluto
but too entangled
and time is space
a blue blue tiger

let it go and the mind too

the terms of the evening light are clear and i am you and you are me
and we are here a green green beam from a star
the night is warm as usual
so we drink the cold cold water
and walk around the house the strange, strange messy house, this
messy house

hi im back from yesterday
where everything looks quite okay
andromeda and all that
only lightyears away


I tried to call the sun
I tried to get a hold of Mars
I tried to contact Mercury
And then I tried you

Listen to our new single Difference

Presenting a new different member of the marybell bunch of songs called Difference
