Swedish indie Friendly Noise, run by friends Mattias and Stefan, is currently releasing a very interesting, monthly, eclectic series of mp3s on their website. Instead of a typical label sound, which rather me to death these days, this collection of mp3s projects "an artist's singular vision" as the only common denominator. Each act presents a contribution with a little text tying the work to a significant part of their life. In fact, all of the releases are worthwhile in their own genres that these artists have created for themselves. The latest in the batch is Peter Nilsson, temporarily in exile from CDOASS, who serves up some very catchy dance music reminiscent of Tom Tom Club, Chic and more recent electropop outfits such as Daft Punk, Cut Copy and Phoenix. Somehow Peter's mix ends up even more interesting that the aforementioned references. Personally, I'm very impressed by his ability to completely transform musical identities and switch gears from his usual gig.
Sleeve design comes from Asa Samuelsson who's used pre-Factory Warholian influences to her advantage. An altogether sweet, danceable and intelligent package free of charge.

On a personal note, I haven't updated this journal in a long time and there is a reason for this. I've had both my parents pass away within six months of each other and I'm now trying to find a new way of life.
