About Me

I'm a lifeloving curious wingnut from northern Norway who listen to , and make, different music. I hope you find time to check it out... My main projects nowadays are: "MetroGnom" ( 70's Progressive rock www.metrognom.com), "Mouches Volantes" (ambient,symphonic noise, www.myspace.com/mouchesvolantes ), Torsha and the Fugitives (reggea/dub/big beat/electronica/funk www.myspace.com/torshamusic ) , "Oceanism" ( ambient post rock together with experimental video projection(live), www.oceanism.net ), ...and "HKS" (Strictly improvisation jam recordings).In addition I work as a DJ now and then (Oliver Pimpstick).I collect vinyl. (..and some CD's)I'm very fond of the 70's music and design. I like to cook. I'm engaged with Helen, and have a little, great daughter named Sina. These muses are my fuel and joy.I hope to live with a free, exploring mind the rest of my life. I simply don't care what people may say, or think. Those who meddle with other peoples living, have lost their own living.... They think they have figured it out.
