If you doubt what to say, say the truth.

About Me


First of all, I wont write about me in third person. This is me and I'm writing it. Many things can be said about me but I'll try to stick to the essential ones. I was born in 1978, I grew up and here I am now. Somewhere in between I discovered music and started playing with it. I was never much for lessons or other instructions. Instead I wanted to learn it by myself. It lead me to many dead ends and wrong turns but at least I learned where not to go. Sometimes that's even more important than knowing the right path. My musical journey has gone from when I at the age of 2 first discovered Beatles to hitting a much heavier death metal peak in my teens. After that it has gone softer and softer, deeper and deeper. Those I knew 15 years ago would probably not recognize me today. So this is where I am today. Where it'll go from here, I don't know but this isn't the end stop. If you want to know more about me just listen to my songs. What you hear is what I am. If that's not enough you could just send me a 'hi' and I'll do my best to explain. I figure that I might give a very serious impression but the truth is the opposite.
Oh and finally...

Is democracy fair?

After reading my friend Follys blog I was reminded of a thought I've had for a long time concerning democracy. In our society it's viewed at the ultimate form of justice but the truth is that it's bul...

Friendship

Music and emotional responces

I was thinking about how subjective music actually is and how the same song can bring out so many different emotions depending on the listener. Sometimes it's even opposite emotions. So the idea with ...

Today the wind swept in from the north

As some of you might know I have a pretty imaginative mind. We haven't had any wind today but just before I came up with the idea of writing this, a strong wind came from no where. That got my imagina...
