Jasper and the boys made it again. Superlatives from the press: “If it’s a hallmark of a good album that it makes you want to climb into your hi-fi, then this is indeed a good album” - Review jazzbreakfast.com
No updates for a while - I have been busy;-) I also moved the studio - 4 meters - to the room next to the old place. And I got a sofa:-)
Spring 2010 has been good. Here are a few things I worked on:
Wildbirds&Peacedrums with Voices - Tour (Europe)
Phronesis - Live Album
Drott og Marsk - Studio Album
Listen! with Susanne Lundeng - Tour (Norway)
Marius Neset -Upcoming album

6/6 i Fyns Stiftstidene, 5/6 i Gaffa, Berlinske, Euroman and Urban - not bad.
We just finished off Annika Aakjær´s coming album. It´s called “Missionær” and will be released in febuary 2010. Sounds great

Wrapping up 2009
Merry Christmas!
It has been a really intense fall this year. A few highlights:
Jazz in Sweden 2010 - Samuel Hällkvist Center.
For the 3rd year in a row, I work on the selected artists album. I mixed this one. To be released in early 2010.
Mames Babegnush
Danish Kletzmer at its best. We finished recording their 2nd album last week, and I will mix it January.
Little Red Suitcase BigBand
Large-format music with Elena, Johanna and a small big band. Recorded, soon to be mixed.
We Know Music - www.weknowmusic.dk
We made some nice music for som fine commercials this fall.
Back to work…:-)
Coming up this fall (amogst other stuff):
Swedish act Yosei - Album Mix (finished) @ Islands Brygge. Release next year.
Danish act Annika Aalkjær - Album mix happening right now.
Swedish act Lekverk - Album mix in september.
Gold record!
I just got my first gold record. Thomas Buttenschoen sold 15,000 copies of his album “Billeder fra min baggård” in Denmark. I produced and recorded it in wonderful Varispeed Studios.
National TV - Sweden
UPDATE:
SVT2 söndag 8 november 2009 kl 19.00: Wildbirds & Peacedrums
Check it out!
I just did “Concert of the week” for Swedish National television with Wildbirds & Peacedrums. It all went down at Tore Johansson´s (Cardigans, Franz Ferdinand etc etc) place. Instead of Gospel - a really nice place by the way.
Blogging is going on
wanngren.com is freesh!
I decided to dismantle the old wanngren.com and put this site up. I´ll scribble all the good stuff down here as they happen. The “references” page is just updated with recent projects an a bunch of decent reviews. Check the Phronesis ones out. They are very flattering.
I am in the middle of starting a major project up, and I´ll present it more in detail when the basic framework is frozen. It´s exciting.
Cheers,
August
