die folk im park kooperative hat großes vor. das folk im park festival soll von heuer an jährlich stattfinden! so nicht nur wage in den statuten verbrieft, sondern nun auch offiziell kundgetan. denn nachdem die letzten künstler am sonntag abend die bühne verließen, trauten sich die veranstalter den nächsten schritt: nächstes jahr sind wir wieder am start, hieß es! und das ist gut so. denn im, einem lustgarten ähnlich amutenden marienbergpark, am rande der stadt nürnberg, gelang ein vorzüglich organisiertes wie musikalisch ausgezeichnet bestücktes kleines event, das sich mit veranstaltungen ähnlicher art leicht messen kann. das karree eine kurzgeschnittene wiese, [...]

auf einen musikalischen leckerbissen gilt es hinzuweisen, auf folk im park, eine veranstaltung des kulturzentrums e-werk und des mobilen kinos nürnbergs. antreten werden dabei folgende acts. unter dem vorzeichen bricks namentlich zattl (git), alex sticht (perc), jay montone (bass) und tatjana schewtschenko (git, voc) oder zattl, patrick göbel von missouri und tati. wie auch immer (das wechselt wohl alle halbe stunde), man muss sie allesamt und sonders zum wenig abgestandenen dunstkreis der nürnberger musikszene zählen. altgediente quasi, die ihre musikalischen wege kreuzten, die bands wechselten wie andere ihre unterhosen, die dem urbanen sound verpflichtet sind, die aber auch [...]

Pet Right this isn't technically a freebie as it's one of those pay what you like type scenarios, whether you choose to donate any pennies is up to you. The one thing that you do need to do is download their EP as it's fucking awesome, it's been a long time since I listened to something this good that wasn't emailed to me. Hailing from Edinburgh, the band describe their music as being 'heavy feather pop', fuck knows what that means, but it's probably a much better description than I would have come up with. You can find [...]
This is Finland folk artist Moddi's video for "Rubbles". He is 23 year old Pal Moddi Knutson and he's been writing music since he was 15. It is a very emotionally impacting video that shows several people bracing for impact for an oncoming earthquake. It is incrdibly intense seeing how personal this is, and the reactions that each individual gives. Almost makes me wonder what it would be like to know for one hundred percent certain, your going to get hit, and there's nothing you can do about it. I mean I dreamed about that of course, but [...]

mp3 || Moddi - Magpie Eggs There is something so pure about Nordic music. With a country producing so many talented musicians there must be something in the water. Raised in Northern Norway Moddi draws inspiration from its environment. The vast and bleak landscapes echo across many of the songs from the debut album. He strives in creating swells of emotion with his soft instrumentation. Each track builds and builds with heartfelt energy to reach its final cresendo. "The music I [...]

Norweg ian 23-year-old Pål Moddi Knutsen speaks of his songs as his children, "growing a little with every winter" as he puts it. Like any offspring, some are occasionally unruly and loud, some are more subdued and shy. " Rubbles ", from his 2010 album Floriography -- due to hit these shores April 19 -- is all of these things. It's quietly creepy, moving through [...]
Have you ever woke up on a rocky shore, the sun is in your eyes, your hair tells the story of the adventures you had last night, and you are somehow wearing a sweatshirt from the future? Moddi has, Moddi does that every weekend. But strangely, when not time-traveling, Moddi gets together with his string-instrument-playing friends are records some really heart-felt beautiful songs. Moddi is from Norway though, so this at least explains the gentle, yet powerful music, and the fashion-sense from 2030. In fact, here is a little excerpt from his press release explaining his [...]

For those of you who felt like Part I just wasn't enough, here's Part II to calm your nerves – because all of the best series are duologies, just like… … The Miss Congeniality series and… the world wars? Struggling for evidence here, maybe the following music will prove that I'm right. Without a doubt this is one of the strangest mixture of bands that I've ever put together, and shows a eclecticism in music taste that may make me slightly worried for my mental stability. However, fans of organisation, don't be scared off, my [...]

Tweet Today is the start of an amazing yearly event in Norway called Alternativ Julekalender (which means "Alternative advent calendar"). It's a project which collects new christmas songs from lots of Norwegian alternative bands, and gives away one song every day in December via their website , their facebookpage and their mailinglist. The songs are usually as amazing as the project is, and I have collected my favourites from the last two years of Alternativ Julekalender here. All these, and [...]

On October 15th, my favorite Norwegian singer-songwriter Moddi will drop his very first international release in UK and Germany via Impeller Records , and only a couple of days ago the EP was also put out for free download over at his bandcamp . The EP features the lovely track Rubbles taken off his debut album Floriography back in February (in my opinion, one of the best records of 2010) along with two exclusive tracks, one that was previously only available on the vinyl. With beautiful, Björk-like vocals and melancholic tunes that belongs to [...]

Moddi or Pål Moddi Knutsen, is a Norwegian artist form the island of Senja who in October 25th will be releasing his EP. 'Rubbles'. Moddi's music is very soft and tender and his lyrics seem to be clear and simple, allowing you the listener to fully imagine the scenario or feeling Moddi is trying to convey; although there are plenty of great artist out there who are superb at their art, what draws me into Moddi, is the way he emits emotion with his voice, his intensity and emotions sometimes are let loose allowing inperfections to flourish in the [...]

Moddi , the up-and-coming singer/songwriter from the very north of Norway makes some of the most beautiful and honest pop music I've heard in a long, long time. His debut album Floriography [...]
