add LOCOBRIGIDA to your friends

in between work and parenthood, I tried to figure out how to get out of the studios and back into the living-room, coffee and smokes in hand - a head full of ideas a mouse-clic away... LOCOBRIGIDA is at the moment turning into a band!.. hrmm, well a duo, that is... by the help of laptop, Logic and late nights - NANA S is my cool partner in crime, we're working on a big bunch of new low-key "less is more"-ish kinda tracks you and your laptop can chill and dance to...
interupted by f1, N.Y. and honey on toast...
... stay tuned...
HÆST was a weird little thing, that sort of got bigger, almost but not quite got there, and then imploded... HÆST was the lyrics of Thomas Schøn and the music of Morten Langkilde & Umpff... from 99-03 we wrote many songs, some were even pretty good.. we gigged and recorded with the help of nice'n'talented people - the actual highlight and claim to fame being "Tango" by HÆST featuring Laid Back. Thomas and I have kept erh a low profile for the last couple of years, focusing mainly on growing garden plants and talking comics while drinking coffee - HÆST was finally put to sleep in 2005 - maybe the ghost of HÆST is now playing in the living-room?.....
a retrospective collection of HÆST-recordings, entitled "17 Gyldne Pærer" can be heard and downloaded at the HÆSTology -pages. guests on these recordings are, among others: Timo Vuoppola , David Elberling , Kasper Villaume , Jeppe Saugman , Thomas Hass , Jeppe Kjellberg , Jarkko Hakala and Jakob Thomhav .
Jon A aka JahBozo , previously with BANZAI REPUBLIC , now with CINEMA OF SOUND [CoS] did a remix of "Tango featuring Laid Back"- during several late-night smoke-ins at my previous home... it was great fun, a builder of headaches, sort of a red-eye-day on repeat... you can hear it here - as well as here (where you can also find more "Tango featuring Laid Back"-remixes for download or streaming)...
