When I saw Jakob Hellman play about a month ago, Magnus Ekelund (& Stålet) played before him (and also with him later on). Magnus Ekelund played most of his songs with himself solo on guitar and song. And even though I had some difficulty accepting his way of singing in a, kind of, monotone way, I liked the music in many of the songs. However, after listening to his former album 'Svart flagg' I came to the conclusion that I only liked a few songs of his.
Today I listen to his latest album 'Det definitiva drevet'. With no expectations I played it, and it was such a pleasant surprise. Not only is the music fantastic, what a difference from a single guitar, his way of singing is different, more soulful, and I like it. I really like it. This album contains the songs I liked from the concert.
Here's one of the songs from the album, 'Ymer II':
And, here's the first single from the album 'Det definitiva drevet', 'Supernova':
full of sacred sound But you're outside where the companies dream and the money goes round...
Life through music. When something is important to you it tends to infuence your life and it becomes a part of who you are. This something for me is music; I simply cannot live without it. Through this blog I share some insights and reflections upon the music in my life.
