Many projects at the same time

Music, music, music..

Finished mixing the track 'Terminal' today, its also for my promo. It's a moody and dark track.

I have also produced some dance/club tracks, and I have started a colab with a singer for these tracks. More about this later!

Finally I wrote a christmas song, my first ever. It's a poppy jazzy strange little song with a few surprises. It's pretty rough mixed right now, I will mix it more properly on sunday. Maybe it will be on a annual christmas CD from kontrollrummet.com. If I can get it good enough by tuesday.

I'm also working on the music for a game in development. This will be my main focus during the coming week. Probably I'll help em out with sound effects as well.

That's all for now. Tomorrow evening I'm going with my friend - wall-E, to see Freak Kitchen and two supporting acts. Maybe I'll shoot some photos to share from the event.

See ya'll!

Singer wanted!

Sadly, our friend and long time rocker Johan has now decided to leave the point zero-building, he don't have the time to put into the band anymore. No hard feelings at all. We hope that the rock will return to Johan someday, but in the meantime..

We need to find a new singer! ..and boy, its not an easy thing to do!

So if you got any tips, or if you want to apply for this rockin' job, please send me a note:

info@lindbergmusic.se

This also means that the album will be postponed until we got a full band again, hopefully early 2010!

Surviving Horror Movies - The Manual

We had another music 'festival' over at the studio forum (swedish music board). This time the theme was HORROR, and you were supposed to write music that would frighten the listener. I wanted to participate but I did it with my own spin of things, I wrote a popish/musical song with a horror theme and the lyrics addressed typical situations in standard horror movies. The song ended up in the middle of the list somewhere, but I got some really nice reviews on it though.

The session was a bit rushed when recording this song, so I want to revisit it sometime, to satisfy my vision for it :D

Try it!

Lyrics:

Surviving Horror Movies - The Manual

I'm frightened, frightened, are they coming to get me?

Now I try to run away

I trip and fall like the others

The guy in mask walk real fast

He will get a hold of me

I have no chance he'll surprise me

When I feel the urge to be alone

I'm frightened, frightened, are they coming to get me?

No, I don't suspect that guy

He's to damn obvious

It could be anyone

When I hear a sound at night

I Don't go and find it out

I know it ain't just my cat

I would never run away like them others

I don't need to be alone like them others

My song featured in a frag movie

My song 'State of solace', that is featured on my upcoming promo, is now featured in a frag movie. In the end of the movie during the ending credits.

You can check the video here if you'd like!

(frag movie = a movie where some guys show their skill in killing other guys in a computer game. The game featured in this video is 'Tactical Ops' which I actually played a few years back).

Lindberg Studios Promo, continued

Worked on 'when reality bring you down' today. Its close to done, finally. I mailed it to two singers today, I hope both of them will deliver their version of it. Got the idea of making two or three different versions of the song. Maybe even different remixes of it. I'll see what happens, at least I need to get one working version to begin with. I have a version with me singing, but I wanted another voice on it as well, it would give a better diversity to the promo later. Anyhow.. I'll try to finish the rest of the tracks for the promo this coming week. Soon...

Dream theater - wither

Dream Theater release their video for the new track 'Wither'. The song is about writer's block. Cool video!

When Reality Bring Me Down

...I just finished (I think) the lyrics for 'When Reality Bring Me Down'. A somewhat greyish view on reality :) Anyways, here it is..

When Reality Bring Me Down

Light greets my eyes
In these fiery skies
I can hear the bell toll at the end of the line
Time takes us all
Even those who don't deserve to fall
And all my remorse - the scars the remain

I choose not to follow you - I'll find my own way
She tells I'm lost - this world ain't for me
Then worlds fall asunder - and I start to wonder
When reality bring me down

Dark greets my eyes
In these endless skies
I loose my dreams in this world of no hope
I bring you lies
Death and the bitterness in cries
All I can hear - the theme of the end

I choose not to follow you - I'll find my own way
She tells I'm lost - this world ain't for me
Then worlds fall asunder - and I start to wonder
When reality bring me down

The things I'm left with
The dreams that follow
My path, a way out of here
and I wont tell them
What I am feelin'
Afraid of what they would do - if you know me too

No I won't go there
If you will be there
I know you don't care - if I make it here
The lies you're telling
The screams and yelling
No, I won't stand here and fight - Like you know me too

Lindberg Studios Promo

Will it ever be finished? :)

I actually thought this one would have been finished around christmas 2008, but its still in the making. To my defense the number of songs have increased and its clear that that deadline was way to optimistic. But now I'm getting closer, fifteen songs have been finished and seven are left. So now I feel that its time to push this one.. to drag it over the finish line and get it 'out of my system', once and for all.

I started setting up a few deadlines now and have contacted singers for some of the songs that are left. My main focus are on these four songs for now: lost in space, you, terminal and when reality brings you down. If I get these tracks finished, I'm almost there.

I recorded most of the music for the track you today. It just needs to get proper guitars and vocals before I mix it.

The optimistic freddy says the promo will be done in the end of November, the realistic freddy says that it will probably get done before the end of 2009, it must. At least for my sanity.

Back to the studio before nightynighty.. :)

Every Little You

Worked on a little melodic 'mainstream' rocker today. The music and lyrics were written earlier, but now I've started to record and arrange it. I will post it as soon as it's finished. The lyrics:

Every little you

Every little thing that turned to memories
Every little touch and every shared dream
Now that I'm awake I wonder what you do
Now that I'm here I wonder where you are

And I'm lost without you
Can't believe we are through
Say what else I could do love
But to say I love you

Every little talk and pointless bickoring
Every wish that you would understand
Every little you that live in my memories
Every little drop that pours out in my sand

And I'm lost without you
Can't believe We are through
Say what else I could do
With these words I leave you

Found out the hard way that you're ending this (you're ending this)
Can't believe we walk from this as enemies (as enemies)

And I'm lost without you
Can't believe We are through
Say what else I could do
With these words I leave you

I'll be back..
