Figures
Today I have the pleasure of presenting my new album. It feels very good getting this out there compared to rate I have been working and creating at these last years this one felt like a bit of a slog to be honest. Mostly at the editing stage, overdub and mixing stage. The main recordings where done over a couple if weeks I belive. I built the setup for this album and recorded the first song with the intention of doing it as a 2023 Jamuary. But when I snoozed on actually making a proper mix, video edit and all that it entails getting a jam out there I soon shifted the idea and gave up on Jamuary. Having recorded as multi-tracks if not always the best idea for getting tracks/jams out there fast and I embraced the idea of editing them fully instead. So off and on for a year now I have tweaked at the tracks, split them up and made this album from the original five recordings. I hope you enjoy. The actual live takes will be published in the following weeks. This one is released by Petite Victory Collective a fitting home for a hardware based album that originated and transformed from live takes and jams. Thanks to everyone keeping the wheels of that awesome machine running!

REHEARSAL (FEB. 2024) [iPad + Modular + GTR + Synths + FX]
Tomorrow I am playing my first show in quite some time. I decided to make a full length video of one of the rehearsals. And while I was at it I put some text to it. I have also been gathering sounds from this setup while rehearsing and trying out different stuff and the plan at the moment is to eventually put all that into an album. But that might take some time until it sees the light if day.
Glist
The wonderful Imaginary North have a new installation in their "Imaginary North Transmissions" compilation series. Number seven in the series to be precise, and this time I have a track on it! It's called "Glist" and made mostly with my modular system. I hope you like it!

Sporväxt
Out today as a part of Lamour Records "Because we love music".
The basic material for the song Sporväxt (Spore growth) is improvised during a five-hour live concert in the forest outside Gävle. The song was then processed and refined in the studio.
Behind the name AKB resides instrumentalist Anna-Karin Berglund from Gävle, Sweden. Her debut album ”Marianergraven” was released on February 28th 2020 (on Lamour Records) and it is her own take on the ambient genre, with melodies moving slowly, forming a menacingly areal atmosphere, where the soaring laments are able to float freely across the sonic panorama. The first release under her own name came in April 2016 on the EP Söndagsbarn (via Lamour Records). In 2017 AKB was awarded ‘Best Solo Act’ of the year at the Local Heroes Gala in Gävle, Sweden.
