About Me

Yrla is me, Niki. I use the name when i play my music and also when im a dj ( i play on different gay/dyke clubs in stockholm) . When i play live i have my guitar élodie, and my friend & ex-kombo Gabrielle who sings the parts. Soon I will also have another friend & future-kombo- Jullan - who will play the bass.
Music is everything that i ever want to do and i hope you´ll enjoy it.
About the songs:
TIME KILLING: Wrote it in April 2005. It´s about passion and being so in love that your almost obcessed.
it´s recorded, mixed and produced by my cousin Pär Åström. He has written & produced songs to for example Madonna. The song will in a few weeks be able to get at a cd called "let your hair down". the release party for the record is at brewhouse in gothenburg, sweden. read the flyer above for more info.
DYKE: A Russian Lesbian Electrotrashtechnoeuro-song I made with my friend Air Street, very different from my other songs, but this is just another part of me. We will make new songs for this project. We call ourselves Candystore. Download it and play it on every club you go to!! It´s a fucking good dancesong. I love it, and you´ll do it too.
DREAM: This song is about myself and how i stay in my illusions just because it is so easy.
Produced by Patrick Robertsson.
CANDLE LIGHT: I recorded guitar, vocals and whistles and Saga Nurmi added harmonica, and then i said she could do what she wanted with the song, and it turned out like this.
