In my opinion, one of the most important things about being a musician is the ability and urge to experiment just for the sake of the experiment. It can seem pointless to work an entire day or week on something, just to toss it in the bin when you’re done with it, but sometimes it is the process of creating that is important and not the creation itself. Take for example a track I did called Not Moving. I spend the good part of a week on that little devil trying to create the sound I had in my head. When I finally felt that I was done, I realized that it was no masterpiece and I couldn’t use it on an album of mine. What it had in craftsmanship, it lacked in creativity, and therefore I tossed it.
So with no further ado, I present to you my first album reject “Not Moving”. It’s not half-bad if you put on your club-music-I-can-party-to-goggles, but it has no place on the album. Enjoy.

Actually, I rather like this. A friend of mine places music in film and television. Would you mind if I sent her your link?

What are your criterias to the tracks on the new album, then?
Comment by Nicolaj S — October 30, 2008 @ 11:42
Well, I don’t have any criteria as such. It just doesn’t fit. That’s it, really.

Jeg mener helt klart det er en rigtig beslutning ikke at tage det med. Ikke at tracket som sådan er dårlig, men ifh til det vi kender dig for, synes jeg både mangler kant og dybde, kunne godt forestille mig du selv var enig i det:)

You can set the various tracks of the song free and let people remix it – I’d be more than happy to give it a shot :-)
