Arvid

The summer came and went. The award winning swedish synth musician Arvid made a remix of the song "Tears". Listen to it here!

And when you're done with that and want more of Arvid, listen to his own stuff.

Two new Bear pilot songs are ready (almost, any day now) and a video is in the making. People playing bingo in a very swedish environment.

Summer

Ah, summer. Lovely!

Bear pilot is moving in slow motion but these are some things to look forward to that's coming soon:

- a video of people playing bingo
- some new songs (3-5)

yup. What more could anyone want?

My brain is a dust collector

Bear pilot song number five is ready. Take a listen at myspace or at the Bear pilot homepage.

Guest musicians:
Anna Modin - flute (Vapnet)
David Nygård - synths and choir (Laakso)
Tobias Dahlström - drums (Lacrosse)

Tjobb

Tobias who drums on almost every Bear pilot song has made a remix of the song Different page. Listen to it here!

Nice work, Tjobb! And he's also got some songs of his own. Check them out here.

Vätö

Been away for the weekend. Helena took a picture of falling cones (above) and I recorded the sound of rain. Yes, Bear pilot is turning out to be nature music.

By the way, is there anyone out there who knows how to play castanets?

The only thing left is the Jesusplinkare

It's been two busy days for Bear pilot. Mixing with Tobias, wednesday, and recording a lot of new stuff with David, thursday. We added trumpet, bear-choir, percussion (including banging on a watercontainer for the sauna) and a badly pitched guitar. The western song is almost ready now. The only thing left is vocals and a jesusplinkare (a really old guitar).

David the drummer

So, me and David recorded some more stuff to the new western song. Above you can see David drumming away. Sounds that make you think of a whiplash or a gun firing.

What's this?

I found this in the corridors where I work. What is it? I know it's some kind of food. But what is it made of? Potato? Custard? Egg?

Monday night. Bear pilot recorded some more hoof sounding stuff. David played keyboard bass and some kind of 80's strings keyboard. This song is really an unholy alliance of western and the 80's. It's gonna be great.

And yesterday I played around with drum recordings from Tobias. So things are moving. In slow motion as usual.

Get your hopes up

Bear pilot went to Eksjö this weekend and met up with two of the members of the Gothenburg-based band "Get your hopes up". We talked about recording a new BP song together but it all fell apart. But who knows? Maybe in the future?

Wait!

New song! I don't want to blow the surprise but it's kind of a western song. You know, a pop song that sounds like Clint Eastwood in the 70's.

Tobias played some beautiful drums that sounded like hoofs and added some 80's fills. Henrik turned the vibrato on the amp way up and then proceeded to play some gunslinger solo stuff. David just overlooked the whole process and will hopefully soon record keyboard, whistling, trumpet, choir and almost everything else as usual.
