There has been a lot going on over the last couple of days. This last weekend me and Andreas started recording a new song together for the first time in maybe two years which is really fun considering that we started recording our first song together around in August 1998.
Back then we were called Andreas & Jag, then we were called Geller for a short while and then we fell apart a bit. I guess we are back to Andreas & Jag now.

On Sunday night me and my wife went to see R.E.M in Stockhol… Continue

Today I had a very interesting revelation in the studio. As you might know I have been working with a new Rhys Marsh track, You will never fall.

There is always this small bump in champagne bubbles sparkle on it’s way to the surface. You know that little skip and twist it does...well I met this guy on Sunday night who didn’t really have that. He seemed confused and in a slightly interrogative mood. But he was quiet. Didn’t say a word. I got the feeling that there would be time for talking later. When I met him he seemed occupied with eating and sleeping.

He weighs 3800g (that is metric kids) and is 50cm long.
He is my son.
His mother is… Continue
