Grimey!
The title of my latest mix should make perfect sense when you hear it, at least if you haven’t heard the genres of dubstep, grime, or glitch hop already. This style of music is raw, dark, and has enormous basslines. Definitely something I enjoy!
And leave me a comment if you like it, would you? Actually, leave a comment even if you don’t like it. I do love hearing people’s feedback and any constructive criticism to help my mixing is appreciated. 
“Good news, everyone!”
In addition to being ecstatic about the fact that Futurama is coming back (!), I spent over $70 today on beatport.com buying new singles and the Raver’s Diary album by Dusty Kid. I already have an idea for the theme of my next mix, and I’m itching inside to get it out, but unfortunately it’s a practical impossibility to do so at this moment. I would explain, but there’s no point. I’ll get to work on it tomorrow!
New theme is up!
Posted by rzr in miscellaneous on June 11th, 2009
Yay? Along with Wordpress 2.8 comes a new theme to celebrate. Anyway, I kind of like the design of this more than the previous one. However, the typography is a little lacking. I might try to switch some fonts up.
A new feature here is the ability to comment on my pages as well as my blogposts. Hope to see some comments on upcoming mixes when they are released.
New mix is out, summer vibes ahoy!
I’ve just released my latest mix entitled I Like Warm Sunny Weather, cause I do. Feedback is appreciated. Enjoy!
New mix coming!
Posted by rzr in miscellaneous on May 13th, 2009
I just had the opportunity to buy about 20 new tracks from beatport.com, so I will spend the next few days making a new mix. I’m hoping for a release on the 16th of May. Stay tuned!
Well now…

I’m still here! Blogging is taking a backseat to the rest of the social web at the moment. I should be back with a proper post soon…
Musicality
Posted by rzr in music, sociopolitical on March 20th, 2009
The term musicality has always appealed to me. Even though the Wiki definition of it is not my personal interpretation of the word; I use it often for describing a certain audible understanding of music that “normal” people simply don’t seem to possess. An “x-factor” if you will, which is key for your enjoyment of music of all genres. Pitch as well, is very interesting. A person’s ability to tell the difference between musical notes and being able to recreate them by ear or their inner “musical compass”, is in my opinion an essential skill for being able to enjoy music on a level that’s deeper than what the average person would experience.

Just thought I’d update, letting people know what I’ve been up to for the past weeks. I’m not very exciting, so it’s been mostly the same old stuff; Internet, gaming, music, and some personal issues. I can go through the topics one by one… (Click “read more” to read the rest of this post)

En hypotese om norsk alkoholkultur
Posted by rzr in sociopolitical on May 18th, 2009
Apologies to my international readers; This blogpost will be in norwegian.
Jeg har lenge, faktisk siden jeg ble tenåring, vært oppgitt over norsk alkoholkultur. Nordmenn har et dokumentert dårlig forhold til alkohol. Det er ofte vi hører om hvor frustrerte resten av verden er av oss fordi de fleste nordmenn takler det å være beruset heller dårlig og ikke klarer å kontrollere inntaket sitt. I 2007 var det 314 dødsfall fra alkohol og alkoholskader i Norge (SSB.no) i motsetning til bare 4 (!) fra andre rusmidler og legaliserte medikamenter. Jeg begynte å fundere på hvorfor dette er tilfellet, og kom til en litt interessant konklusjon som jeg gjerne vil dele og diskutere. Read the rest of this entry »
