happyponyland.net ∋ Music

I come from a family of self-taught musicians. I played french horn in a wind band for six years, but it was after I quit that I became seriously interested in music. Since the late 90s I've been composing myself (first with MIDI, later trackers). Today I consider the ukulele my main instrument. I can also find my way around guitars and keyboards somewhat.

SKRAEKTEATERN is a project where I explore darker themes with a distorted, lo-fi sound.

From 2006 to 2008 I played in the band New Slabadollers.

I'm also somehow involved in Hot Mot Rolf.

In 2003 I hosted a small chip compo. I briefly ran a chip group/label, but couldn't figure out where I wanted it to go.

Downloads

Here are some of the songs I have released over the years. They're encoded as OggVorbis.

Personal favourites

Some old yet intriguing songs

Chip EP #1

This was supposed to sound like a shoot'em-up soundtrack. Does it?

  1. deserted world
  2. dance of the shadows
  3. glorious sunset

Other

Mera Brännvin - an Eddie Meduza cover we recorded at school sometime during spring 2001. "Vocals" by Stigge, Jerry & Joel on guitar, Oja behind the drums and me on bass. Mixed by Max Z.

You can find an old remix I made of "Stones" (from the Ultima series) at The Stones Archive.

I once sampled most of the sounds from my Yamaha PSR-150.
