It´s so hard to have written a song and then have someone else put thier stamp on it. Today we started recording “Hurricane”, a song that has been so clear in my head since I wrote it, Magnus, my co-producer, put a synth bassline on it and right at once I wanted to scream STOPP but stepped back and let him do it. It´s so interesting how you have to kill your darlings to make a better song and how it feels really weird at first and then makes so much more sence. Back to work!

Magnus Henriksson aka [existensminimum] lives with his family outside of Norrköing in an old school that has been renovated into thier home. With a studio in the attic it is an ideal inviroment for making my second album. I´ve been through some big changes in my life and luckily I´ve been able to write through it all and found a way to get through heartache and a reevaluation of my life. This blogg is a way for me to let you in on the procces of the making of my second album and to let you take part of my everyday life as such. Today I´ve had to really struggle to focus, I always become really tired at the end of the year but it´s been a productive day and we have managed o set a tone for a one of the songs. It`s a song called The Contract and it´s about how you can never get away from the disappointments that come with life and how everything eventually changes.
