Vinterbarn

As screened last week at Singsang and Stereogum, here’s the first video from Trilogi, the album-opener Vinterbarn. It was a challenge to make something Fredriky that’s actually “bright”. But winter is both the brightest and the darkest time of the year so maybe it makes sense. Just like mind control.

Na Na Ni out in Japan

Today the Fredrik debut Na Na Ni hit the mysteriously captivating shores of the isle of Japan. Amigas, amigos, fans and loved ones over there can now turn to our hard-working, ever-expanding allies Zankyo Records in Tokyo. However, music nowadays travels in radio wires, telephone lines, laser beams, t-shirts, cassettes, answering machines, nightmares, soup cans and even thin air. So expect anything – wherever you are.

Those of you who thought there was something fishy going on with our song titles, you were absolutely correct. All fredrik songs are built from the ground up on the hiragana phonetic system. Na Na Ni is just a simple one. We’ll leave it up to you to figure out the rest.

Hello! This is the first day. This is the beginning of the Fredrik website. This will be the source of text, sounds, odd ends and cuts you won’t find anywhere else. We decided to go public and spread some more information about us, in part because people started to get annoyed with us, in part because we wanted to. In either case, we are happy to be here. And that you are here too.

Unless something specifically for neighbourhood things, this site will be largely in english. This is because we are very busy and don’t have the time to babelfish our way through the 900-something languages spoken on this planet. We flogged our TV-sets long ago and quit our day jobs, but we’re still short on hours. Here‘s a form if you want to sue us.

Again, welcome and see you around!
