In a flash of creativity and thanks to some new software instruments I recorded three songs in a few weeks time. I chose to put them all together as an EP with "Dina drömmar" as the title song.
Dina Drömmar An song that I wrote and recorded some years ago, but as my recording skills has become better I wanted to give the song a new costume, and I really think it's a successful makeover.
Ode to a friend As the title of the song suggest it's a tribute to a close friend that was taken away way to early in our 15's. By far the most sentimental song I ever wrote.
Partisanen A cover of La Complainte du Partisan, an old song from the French resistance movement during World War II and made famous by the fantastic Leonard Cohen. The lyric is a free translation of the English lyrics by Cohen. Original text by Emmanuele d'Astier de la Vigeria and original music by Anna Marley in 1943.
