(stage) life update

Thought I'd share some newer photos of my band, Forgotten Sunrise.

We're are working on new material and have some exciting plans ahead.

Also, feel free to visit my personal SoundCloud - Bedless Bones

when you're playing the synthesizer, you can:
1. mosh
2. do yoga, apparently

 

Update on life and everything else

Wow, there has been quite a time gap since my last post.
In the meanwhile I have been working as a graphic designer for four Spanish fashion brands and joined a deathbeat/industrial/dark-electro/experimental band called Forgotten Sunrise.
My boyfriend has been steering the project since 1992, but currently it's just us two in the band.
I have been making electronic music with softsynths for about six months now, but I'm trying many new instruments for this band... I have taken guitar lessons in high school, sang in various choirs and been in a music class, but this is completely different and experimental. I played bass for the first time in my life and a month later I was already doing it on stage!
I am very exited to see where our creative cooperation leads us. On our first gig we already played two songs composed and programmed by me.
I have also composed a lot of different material that I might upload to my personal SoundCloud account.. I'll let you know if I publish something.
In the meanwhile, here are a few of our very first photos as Forgotten Sunrise.

The last day of February and the first day of March in Helsinki

I'm back from Helsinki. The concert night went great, you never see so many people at dark electro/industrial/synthpop parties in Estonia. People also put more effort in dressing up. I'm not a fan of the cyber goth look, but the atmosphere was great and it was definitely fun to be there and dance until the lights were put on. By the way, the event took place on a boat, which had three dance rooms on different floors and we found a happy sauna party at the backstage... the naked guys from a previous party took their time before leaving.

We only had a few hours to spend in Helsinki and we went to Black & White  and Music Hunter. All DVD boxes were 50% off in Music Hunter, so we got a Tarantino box. Maybe I'll finally get to watch Jackie Brown, the only Tarantino movie I haven't seen.

I got Edgar Allan Poe's The Fall of House Usher and other writings from the Academic Bookstore. It's great to finally have it in the original language. I also had a severe wtf-moment, when I checked if they had something from Michel Houellebecq, who's one of my favourite writers. They had a paperback of his last novel The Map and the Territory and on the back cover it was written Michel Houellebecq (1956-2010)... He was born on 1956, but he is still here... Quite a phenomenon. It might have something to do with the fact that the novel has a character, a writer also called Michel Houellebecq and he dies in the book. The novel was published in 2010. I don't know if someone mixed up literature and life, but it certainly made me want to read the book even more. I have it in Estonian since last May, so as soon as I've finished his Platform, I will definitely read it.
