Highlights of 2006

Instead of just listing the best albums and movies of 2006 I have decided to make a list of moments, things, people, songs, etc that moved me in one way or another. In no paricular order, except for #1:

  1. Hanna and me buying our first apartment together

  • Final Sleep
  • Grizzly Man
  • Those Summer Nights & Days
  • V. Sjöberg New Jazz Ensemble

  • Justin Timberlake - My Love
  • The Squid & The Whale
  • The Love Life Movement 2006
  • Heroes
  • Progressive Rock
  • That great Tim Hecker song

Since I don’t want to disappoint you list freaks, I’ve also made a list of my ten favorite YouTube-clips of the year, and even took the time to put together a play list, counting from ten to one. Enjoy.

    Ah yes, I thought this kind of list was perfect for me this year. I just write stuff down as I come to think of them. I find it really hard to make a list of particular things, but just listing things I like makes more sense.

    Hm, I can’t remember the title of that Tim Hecker track, but it is on the latest album and has a heavily distorted guitar drone/loop. Great stuff. I’ll try to figure out which track it is.

    Great list! Going on a roadtrip to Gothenburg with Bert and meeting all you guys was certainly one of my highlights of this year as well.
    Something else. You should check out the Silvester Anfang, Ignatz, Islaya, Jack Rose tour. They’re coming to Gothenburg on january the 18th. But I guess they don’t know where yet because they haven’t stated. More here: http://www.kraak.net/en/events.php
    Have you enjoyed the Christmas holidays?
    Cheers!

    One of my greatest mistake was not being able to get to Gothenburg earlier so that I could have met you some more, but I sure enjoyed that evening we got to hang out.

    I’ll make sure to check that tour our, I think you told me about Ignatz when we met?!

    Ih, Christmas and New Years have been good, we’ve been traveling across the country but it has been fun. I hope you did enjoy yours too!!?
