Northern Lights X
January 26th, 2008
I’m fully aware it’s a new year, but I’m just not done with 2007… picked up some cool stuff whilst on xmas hols, like The Field’s laidback techno album From here we go sublime and Norwegian DiskJokke’s Staying in. So while we’re waiting for 2008 to materialise we’ll simply start where we left off, with […]

…another year over and a new one just begun…

who is Herman Düne?
August 18th, 2007
french? swedish? who cares.
there’s a grizzled crazy-throat on lead guitar, with the power to turn flamenco into driving country music. in contrast, the drummer has that poster-boy appeal and there’s a doctor on the bongos who ever so judiciously injects wafts of horn in and out of a few numbers.
