(English translation at the bottom) En Dikt från Köket ---- Jobbat på projektet. Chefen va från vettet. Jag har ont i nacken. Det var alltså tacken. Baka baka pizza. Vill man inte missa. Smulor som blir över. Litet barn behöver. Spara spara pengar. Skaffa nya sängar. Sover ju i köket. Mitt i bland allt stöket. English translation: A Poem from the Kitchen ---- Worked at the project. The boss was out of his mind. My neck hurts. So that was the thanks. Baking baking pizza. Don't want to miss that. Crumbs that are left over. Toddler needs. Save save money. Get new beds. Sleeping in the kitchen. In the middle of all the mess.

about

All music composed by Anders Persson.
All instruments played by Anders Persson.

The tune "Emma's Dance" from my previous album "Polly Phony" contains a short part where I play on my old flute from my childhood. I thought this part sounded so good that I decided to take up flute playing again. I bought a bunch of new flutes (recorders) and started playing.

The idea for this album was that every tune should contain a bit of flute. I managed to keep this idea for 10 out of 12 tunes (the c64 tune obviously can't contain a real flute :) . In some tunes the flute is the main instrument while in others it is a smaller part. I think I've used 5 or 6 different flutes but my favorite is the Moeck Rondo Alto pearwood recorder that I've used the most.

Another new thing for this album is a Yamaha DD75 mini electric drum kit with additional real foot pedals. This is used on 11 of 12 tracks (but not the internal sound). This kit is not perfect but in my limited space it's a good solution for real drum playing.

The guitar you hear most often is my favorite old trusty Squier Strat and the bass is my Danelectro Longhorn (the bass seen used by the Italian eurovision winner "Måneskin"). Reaper is used for recording, Ensoniq SQ1 plus for keys.


The tunes were recorded between 2018 and 2022 in the following order:

2018
- Springtime
- Kraftikon
- Va?
- Ba-rock
- Amur, the dragon river

2019
- Silver
- Analog Power 2

2020
- Drive 8

2021
- En dikt från köket

2022
- Tur man bor i Sverige
- Rondo
- The Robotic Rock Opera Hymn


About the tune "Analog Power 2": When I had made this new tune I suddenly realized the similarity to the beginning of "Analog Power" from "Boray plays some guitar" from year 1999-2000. So I put this part from Analog power 1 in the beginning of the new tune and also changed the key of the beginning to match the part. A good connection from one "Boray plays some..." to another one 20 years later.
