Me and Nellie finally recorded our beloved song Mr. Sandman last weekend, live in Stockholm! On the background you can hear the wonderful inflyttningsfest that’s going on at the same time

Mister Sandman by teknopipo

Sini and me visited Holland for the weekend. Worked at the Ericsson office in Rijen for a day. Drove on ice without spikes. Had some beer with friends in de Stichtse. Had a nice breakfast with Jasper, Mika and my mum in Utrecht. Met up with Jan and visited Marco and Jasminka in their new place. Ate some chocolate letters and pepernoten, ran into some Zwarte Pieten, and seen the new Dick Maas movie, Sint, with Graat.

Of course the weekend was again too short to do all the things I would have liked to do, but very cool nevertheless. And I have a fresh supply of Senseo pads

Bought new batteries for my kaoss pad, and finally expanded my MIDI I/O with a MOTU MIDI Express 128.

Everything is finally racked and hooked up so I spent the larger part of the weekend making music. I’ve uploaded the new two tracks below to Soundcloud.

The first track is my attempt to use my voice with the Logic vocoders. The second track is a live recording by me and Steve! I’m behind the sequencer and Steve is going berserk on the Kaoss pad We’re also using the MAM filterbank, which is nice cause I haven’t been using that a lot lately.

Sini, Frida, Olof and I visited Amanda and Rutger in Berlin this weekend. It was awesome – thanks guys for a great weekend!

Recorded and mixed two awesome songs today, with my new SE Reflection Filter All music, lyrics and vocals were written by Caroline Werner. I did the sequencing, the production, and a mixdown.

The first song is called Puppy Poster:

The second one is called Like a Summer Day:

Will be doing some recordings with Caroline today, so I installed this reflection filter from SE to hopefully get rid of that hollow sound in this room. New Mac Mini and Beyer headphones in the background as well  

Ah finally, a restaurant with wireless call-the-waiter devices!

Me and Sini had an awesome and relaxing 23 day vacation in the USA. We spent about a week in New York City and spent the rest of the time driving around the East coast, staying in motels and camping. Some pictures!
