The unknown
Jon Magnusson is not Justin Bieber. He is even the opposite. I mean he is just a cool dude with no label, no music deal, nothing linked to any kind of business. But he sent me an email. A nice email with a link to his homepage that actually did not work. “I’m a musician and producer who records my own stuff in my home studio. I just released a new song in Swedish called “Psalm för syndare”. It’s a folk/pop song with a punky feeling”, he said. And he was right.
So we are talking about a nobody who just enjoys making music from time to time, about a guy who just released several little tunes, including his latest one, a pop song with Swedish lyrics called “Psalm för syndare” and a video to go with it. It is written “professional social worker and hobby musician” on his website. And the music? Well, let’s quote Jon again: “The music I write and play is sometimes plain folk or sometimes more punk. Still my ambitions aren’t that big. I just think it’s a hell lot of fun to write, play and record my songs and hopefully someone will like them as well”. Oh, dear do it yourself Internet era…
Sure, I do not think this song will change my life forever, but I enjoy it enough to mention it in this blog. Cause Absolut Noise is not something that serious. It is ad free. It can give a little room to unknown people with cool songs. And if you are not into this home-made spirit, there is still Aftonbladet to read.
