Streaming remix
In the process of writing and recording demos for my next album I suddenly felt for something ambient. I started remixing "You Came Into The Room's drone-part" just for fun. I thought it came out pretty nice but I don't think I will do anything with it in the form it is right now. So why not just put it out for streaming on SoundCloud? This genre is not for everyone, but hopefully someone will enjoy it.

A tip
It's a bit quiet here these days and it probably will stay that way for a while. However, the man behind the guest guitar solo on my song Innocent No More released his second solo record today! Circlevicious second effort The Void is a really good record and considering you can get it for free from his Bandcamp I really think you should download this one right away! His webpage, that I have made for him, also launched today. Enjoy!

The second observation
Yes, I'm currently writing new material for my next album. I'm really gonna let the songs sink in before starting recording some demos. So before even this happen it might take a couple of weeks or months. Thanks for your patience.

Digipack-release announcement
Thanks to Svenska kulturfonden the debut demo album Pure Ash Tray is now available on CD. It comes in digipack-form, limited to 100 numbered copies with a 2-panel-booklet. A video containing pictures of the album is up on my YouTube-channel and on this site (under Media>Videos). The album was originally meant to be able to purchase only on CD Baby. Unfortunately it have taken months already to get the album in print so to speed things up a little you can start buying it from this day. To place your order, simply visit the shop.

It's finished!
The demo Pure Ash Tray is finished! I put out all the tracks from the album in the music player to the right. They start/end so sudden here on the site because when listening to the whole album through the next song starts where the previous ended.
