om sproget / on language

Jeg vil skrive bloggen på både engelsk og dansk. Hvis du kan ikke forstå ordene, fortæl mig, og jeg vil forsøge at oversætte. Hvis du er dansk, vil jeg gerne fortælle dig, jeg endnu er ved at lære sproget, og mit dansk er ikke særlig godt. Hvis du gerne vil hjælpe mig med ordene, det er rart og tak for det. Min email er somedayashtrays@gmail.com.

This blog will be written in both English and Danish. If you, as a reader, have trouble with one of those languages and would like a translation, please let me know, and I will do my best to oblige. If you are a Danish reader, please know that I am just learning, and my Danish is far from perfect. If you would like to suggest corrections please do so. Email me at somedayashtrays@gmail.com.

Ingen tid

I don’t have a lot of time -- or, rather, I have a lot of things to do and not enough time in which to do them -- but I’ll make time for this.

Her er i dags spilleliste:

1. Her Modest Mouth – And the Amazing Dancing Bear (DK)
2. Rocky Dennis’ Farewell Song – Jens Lekman (SV)
3. You’ve Gone Too Far – Slumber Party
4. If I Had A Film – Indurain (SV)
5. Grammisgalan – Johan Hedberg (SV)
6. 1983 (Pelle & Sebastian) – Pelle Carlberg (SV)

7. ADHD – Jonas Game (SV)
8. Stay (Just A Little Bit More) – The Dø (FL)
9. Guilty Rocks – Múm (IS)
10. Shoreline – Broder Daniel (SV)
11. Ud Af Mit Gode Skind – A.K. Hansn (DK)
12. With Fever – the Rainy States

I am going to try download links again and see what happens -- so here is the podcast. You may also download 1983 (Pelle & Sebastian), Pelle Carlberg’s new thing. It's one of his favorite tracks from the upcoming, as-yet-untitled album. The song is a “rough mix,” but I think it sounds pretty good. I also think the subtitle is really clever. Even though Pelle and Belle sound nothing alike spoken, they look very similar written. Perhaps it’s just wishful thinking, or association, but I think I hear a bit of a Belle & Sebastian-y tinge to the song. It’s got a spoken part, too, which for some reason I always really like. Anyway.

If you’re in Portland, you can also come to the Modern Age this week. Friday at seven -- five bands -- Southern Belle, Dykeritz, Sweeping Exits, the Rainy States, and Michael the Blind.

I will be at the Modern Age, but I will not be doing my Friday afternoon radio show, due to a very compelling engagement which you will probably hear about later. I will be back as usual next Wednesday, and Friday, Ando (formerly of the Pony Review) will be covering for me. I’m very excited to see what he’ll play, and expect the show will sound just as good, if not better than, it does when I’m there.
