Eardrums birthday presents #1 & #2, - a birthday song from Lucky Misu and art! from ANT!

March 31st, 2007 by Knut


We’ve got presents! As most of you probably know by now, we had our birthday yesterday, and asked for creative presents. Keep sending them to info@eardrumsmusic.com. We’ll be publishing everything that comes in through april. Now to the presents!

The drawing above is made by none other than Antony from ANT. This was supposed to be the cover of a single that never became a single, but instead he sent it to us as a birthday-present! Thanks ANT!

Daniel from the swedish electropop-project Lucky Misu wrote this lovely birthdaysong for Eardrums, - its called “Happy Eardrums” and is a charming electronic popsong made in one hour. Check out Lucky Misu’s other releases, - some of them are brilliant, and all his EPs are free to download from his website. Thanks a lot, Lucky Misu!
Here’s one song from his latest EP “Puzzled”, and the birthdaysong:

Lucky Misu - Happy Eardrums
Lucky Misu - puzzled

And here’s a live-track from Ant, - one of my favorites from his latest album:
Ant - when your heart breaks (into many little pieces) - live
(more live tracks on Ant’s website)

Attention: Bands, artists, cartoonists, painters, writers, readers, - we want presents!

March 30th, 2007 by Knut



Maybe it’s kind of rude to ASK for presents at your own birthday, but we do it anyway….
Eardrums music blog is 2 years old today, and we want presents! All presents will be shown in the eardrums blog. Read below:

What do we want?
Important: We do not want anything that cost money.
We want you to make something and be creative.

THIS IS OUR WISHLIST:
*Bands and artists: send us a song! The best thing would be if it is a birthday song for eardrums, but any song is OK. Got a song you want to show the world? Send it to us as a birthday-present! Never mind if the recording facilities are cheap or if the recording is rough and full of noise , mistakes or “hiss”. We just say “charming!”
Send the song by email or just send us a link. info@eardrumsmusic.com

*Cartoonists, painters, designers, photographs or anyone who likes to draw: Send us a drawing, painting or a cartoon!
I’ve always wanted to include a cartoon in Eardrums, - something about music, indie-culture, blogging or anything related to that. Drawings, paintings, designs or illustrations, photographs, - we want things like that! The best is if they are related to Eardrums, music or anything close to that, but if you have something else you want to show the world (and as long as it is “decent”), we’ll show it as long as it is yours and you give it to us as a present! Send us your art by email (scanned) or as a link to somewhere we can download it, or by post. info@eardrumsmusic.com / Eardrums c/o Knut B. Lindbjör, Liljekroken 20, 3050 Mjöndalen, Norway. Don’t be afraid if it is rough, - in your eyes not professional enough or just a sketch, - as we said, we love it rough and charming.

*Readers and writers: We want anything!
We want your ideas. We want you to tell us what YOU want on Eardrums. We want you to come up with some kind of nice gift that does not include anything you can buy or any money. Do you want to write a post for us? Come on. Do you want to tell us about the book you are writing? Come on. Do you want to write us a poem? Come on! Anything! And again, don’t be afraid if it is rough, just a sketch, not something you normally would release as a finished product… This is for fun, and we love you, and we love your rough product. Come on! Send it by email: info@eardrumsmusic.com

This is no competiton. There will be no reviews or ratings. We will show our presents and maybe tell the world about you, if you allow us to do that. This is for fun. No prizes or anything. Please send us your gifts now! We accept gifts anytime, but please hurry, and please do it within the end of april. OK?

We don’t expect anything and will be extremely excited if some of our wishes came true…

Spring comes with Wilco!

March 30th, 2007 by Ivar

Today it is two years since Eardrums started. Hurray! My contribution to this day is to report that the new album from Wilco will be released this spring.

Sky Blue Sky is the very promising name of the new album and it will be released May 16th worldwide. Wilco has a special place in my heart since their post 9/11 album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (2002).
Wilco has a good tradition in sharing songs from their albums and “What Light” is a new excample of that. The song seems to represent the more traditional Wilco sound (folk/americana/alt. country) with acoustic guitars and piano. Back to the “No Depression” sound from the late 1990s? We’ll have to wait some weeks to find out.

Talking about sharing; Jeff Tweedy’s advice is simple but true:

“If the whole world’s singing your songs / Just remember, what was yours is everyone’s from now on”

Wilco - What Light
