Thank god it’s monday is a dedication to everyone that likes what they do; the people that gets their asses up in the morning and does the damn thing. Enough of this living for the weekend shit, let’s go out there and get’er done.
It uses Pax Tantor, a typeface I made all by my damn self. Behind there, there’s handwriting written by my damn self with a texture from a photograph of a damn rock I took by my damn self. My brother helped me out in the printing, I did not make him. So big ups to parents for making people and all that.
It’s available in the shop section as of right now, where you can like, buy it and stuff. All by your self.

Finally I get to show you all the new website! This new thing is a natural continuation of my work lately, made to focus more on the important stuff, and collect the different strands of my online world.
No more separate sites for portfolios, shops, blogs and whatnot, now everything is nice and tidy, put together right here! I will also be able to show you the newest print I made really soon, so hang tight for that.
As you can see if you look around quickly, the site is mainly this here blog, my portfolio, and the shop, with some meta-stuff in between. Hope you like it, be sure to tell me if something is funked up! Looking forward to living here now.

Perhaps Norway’s most established DJ of all, Olle Abstract, has finally taken matters into his own hands (or spoon, as he elegantly put it), and started a new radio programme called “Utvalgt Lyd”.
His voice have been missing from Norwegian airwaves since he stopped his weekly address on radio P3 a few years back. But now! He returns!
And it must be mentioned, I am of course massively stoked that he saw fit to include my track Singsiri in his inaugural programme. So download! Subscribe! DJ! Do all the things! You can listen to it after the break. (more…)

I thought I should update you on some dates I have coming up, since these are gigs I’m looking immensely forward to, and have been salivating over for some time. Last friday I played at Opera, which was amongst the best gigs I have had in a while; a packed room, an audience expecting to be surprised, and Olle Abstract raving like only he can. Sorry for the namedropping, but it happened, and it was super fun.
Saturday the 15th of march I’ll be playing alongside one of our heroes at Nabovarsel: Numbers label boss Spencer. That’ll be a blast like no other, I’m going to do ALL THE THINGS.
Then, on saturday the 22nd, I’m going to Oslo to play for an unsuspecting populace at Fisk&Vilt, I’ll be rocking the back yard, so the roof is already raised.
Aaand then, on April 11th, I’ll be playing next to my main man; Øde Øyvind, at Opera again. He’ll bring some RnB from a different planet, I’ll just.. go nuts, I suppose. Party like it’s 2014, we say.
Check out the Lysgaardsounds.com website for more up-to-date info, music videos, and other stuff! For those of you not in the know; I try to keep the music and the design parts of my life a little separated, since if you like one thing that doesn’t mean you must like the other. But at times, like this one, they bleed into each other. So there! Looking forward to meeting you on a dance floor in the future.

This poster is a nod to the mid-century classical music LPs put out by Deutsche Grammophon.
