Thanks for the friendship, Myspace keeps crashing at the moment so I have not had chance to listen to your stuff there yet. Keep up the good work and I hope you all have a great New Year

I'm admiring your work. Subjectively, it's quite my personal taste, but hell, you did it great !! A Battery Powered Sea Villain, Vampire Waltz, Lapsang Souchong.. In fact, all of them are good !! Cheers from Indonesia !...

Press
“Trots musikens enkelhet finns både täta och genomarbetade arrangemang. Och det har inte heller sparats på instrument. Här samsas såväl stråkar, knäppinstrument som slagverk. Ett fylligt cellostråk ligger ofta med och skapar både karaktär och sinnlighet. Materialet varierar, som att i bluesen Pluus finns även långdragna snarkningar. Den vokala insatsen hittar vi på det avslutande spåret där Helka Elo på finska sjunger Väinön Pölyfööni (Väinös dammfön).
Stänis namngivning av sångerna ligger nära den mytiska poesin och i hans värld finns djuren närvarande både i metaforernas solkatter, gamla katter eller ilskna hundar och insekter. Musiken tar avstamp i olika genrer men inte konfliktfullt utan i ett modest samspel. Man hör western country, pop, Beatles, medeltida, östliga klanger och förstås nordiska folkvisetoner. Binnikemaskens klagan känns som en medeltida pastisch av John Dowland. Trots det, en av mina favoriter.”

Waltzes on National TV!

Dear visitors,

-The Vampire Waltz (don't know which version cos...
