Three playlists from the Winter Holiday week. One week soundtrack of three hours, from the days Nadine was here. One flashback by Karin with grungy nineties – Stone Temple Pilots, Alice In Chains and Mad Season. So far! And from today – a tribute to all mothers out there – especially Karin!

Enjoy! Good Night!
Soto might be the most perfect family cat ever. She came when she was needed the most in our family. Just some few days before we got to know the diagnosis of Mika’s heart disease during the pregnancy. She helped us cope through those days. And, well, since then, I could count so many times and events, and share so many traits, that makes her just that – The Family Cat! Of course, Uchi and Deshi are perfect family cats as well – three very distinct personalities, helping us out in the highs and lows. I do not have the…
If I step into the flow to give you the full story of primary associations to all the tunes here, it would take too much of my writing energy and your reading focus. Where I guess it takes energy to focus, right? Well, straight to the point. Punch line. The tune ending this playlist, is in fact one of my first identified ‘musical memories’, where I remember artist and title of the song. Sliding back the timeline of my life, I was around seven years old or so, in 1974, and I tuned in to Radio Luxemburg on our kitchen…
We made a Longwalk today, Karin, Mika and I. Pokemon Go Halloween Special, extra rewarding for my Karin! Me, supporting. We had main target to visit a charity store in Ingelsta, where giving = fika! And we found some Xmas gifts already – books! And I am truly proud of Karin pushing her limits, out walking like this. Almost 12k steps. Yay!. A visit to neighbouring toy store. Roar! Before going. In bed. Mika wants to govern the gadget! Photo by Karin – this time! At Hovet, Stockholm. Jean-Michel Jarre, live. Feeling the vibes from my friends, on distance. Will…
Melanthie Johansson. Widow to Hans Johansson. Bonus mother to my Karin, and my bro-thru-my-fiancée Roland. She turns 72 today! Hipp hipp hooray! Distance hugs from bonus step-son here! Hope your day was as great as it could be, down there in Cyprus! Hope to see you soon again! And, first-and-foremost – Mika wants to meet her bonus grand-mother!!! Dedicated classical music listener, you are! As Tears For Fears (Roland, yeees?) so eloquently puts it in their Beatles Pastiche – Sowing The Seeds Of Love! My earworm this morning. Always with meaning to explore. A day like this! Landed in an…

Today. Equinox. Approx same amount of Solar Light and Night Shadow. Easy to have a Jean-Michel Jarre relapse. His second album, Equinoxe. Included in today’s dayplaylist. Welcome, Autumn! Pondering on how to get space and room for the lines of writing on music for health emerging inside of me, to form themselves outside. It will come. Wikipedia rule applies. “No deadline”. Quality assurance, comes with that principle. I am highly sensitive for stress, just have to deal with it. Simple! Good night!
Tags, and Categories, saying it all. Mehopes. Music givs infinitely beyond words. So. Listen! Enjoy! In short – A high energy filler for a kickstart Monday! Have a great week! That is what I intend to have! Family, Aikido and Music for life! Period. Good night!
A core musical reference in my Musical Biography. Faithless Forever!
… From playlist … Intermission. Interlude. A day in between. Resilience. Deep! On the edge. Tomorrow. Stockholm Music and Arts. Kraftwerk 3D Live. All fine. Now. Tea. Chill. Good night!
The first 24 hours of the reaction phase of the message of the world loss of Prince Rogers Nelson has passed. I will put deeper words, onwards, if possible, in what way Prince, what he stood for, and what the vaults filled with his golden creations – now left behind in his legacy – meant for me during my sensitive eighties. Now, leaving you today’s playlist on Spotify (which at large was rolling as a YouTube chromecasted in our living room, simultaneously added). No Prince on Spotify, greater parts are what feels inspired Prince, and some associations coming from the…
