about

This song was recorded in just a couple of hours, on the 8th of December 2008, with Monsieur Erik Bekkeheien at his soon to be even more famous Bekkstudio. Musicians from Helldorado, together with some of my long-time friends, are responsible for the rhythm section. The project was meant as a collaboration between Tom House and myself and the plan was to release an EP. As you might already have understood that never happened. Tom wrote, or had written the words, they were actually all written as poems, while I composed the melodies and recorded the tunes. It was a good experience for me in many ways. First of all I had to work with words that were not my own. Second of all I also got the chance to work with other musicians than those I usually work with. The result is for you to judge.
