That wonderful feeling

When you wake up and remember

There is cake in the fridge

One of the great joys of being in the music industry is seeing my friends climb the charts and succeed! I wanna give a shoutout to the best and craziest producer I know, Seth Norman from the band TRIAGE who have a sick track in the dubstep top 10, check it out! http://s.beatport.com/niINIG. Also a shoutout to my friends from Relentless and SpekrFreks for their latest Spencer & Hill remix! Check it out here: http://s.beatport.com/JO4hQJ . Proud mama

… Some want to live in the mountains. Some on a farm or near a forest. And some… prefer the sound of the highway through the night.

So several friends have reported that they’ve tried to vote but weren’t able to, perhaps it has to do with borders, that only Swedes can vote? Other friends said they’d like to vote but weren’t willing to download an app to do so… Understandable! In that case I probably don’t have a chance in this competition because the leaders have over 800 likes and I don’t really have the time right now to push that hard, especially if a large portion of my network can’t vote.. So I’ll stay in the competition but I’m not really pursuing it further. You’re still welcome to vote of course, every vote counts! But I think I can manage this music career thing well on my own. Got other plans, many plans

I’ve decided to join a song competition! It’s for unsigned bands/artists, which I think technically I am? I mean I’ve released songs on labels before, including my own, but I’m not exclusively signed anywhere? I’m doing this because I’m curious to see how far I can go with my own songs. I’m not even hoping to win but I’m hoping it could be a new platform to get some new readers to the blog and listeners to my music. I just feel like I have nothing to lose except a few minutes of my time, you know? Plus I’m tired of promoting everything myself! I would really love to get my music signed so I don’t have to take care of all the marketing…

I’ve submitted Miss Vamberly and it would mean THE WORLD, THE WOOOOORLD to me if you took a second to vote! As a thankyou I would be happy to promote your blog, Twitter or anything you may want to be promoted!

Vote for “Miss Vamberly” HERE!

Haven’t logged into Google Analytics in forever. But I was curious to see what my visitor stats looked like these days, and I’m happy to see it’s still growing steadily! I’m not even as active or as interesting as I should be, so this was positive news! Just imagine if I had time to blog every day and put out 1000% more music… It’s good to have goals

The peak you see in May last year is from when I posted an article about my “predictions” for the Eurovision song contest. Since I wrote the article in a smart way it showed up high in search engines right when the search for “winner of eurovision 2011″ exploded on Google. That week I averaged around 700 visits a day On average I get about 50 readers a day, majority of them finding me on Google. I’m curious to know though who my regular readers are? Speak up!

I just got back from the salon and I told my hair stylist I really wanna try pink highlights but I don’t know if that would fly at my job. So he had the perfect solution for me – pink hair shadow! It’s called Color Bug and you stroke it on like highlights here and there and it stays on really well until you wash it out. He tried it on me and I’m inlove!! In a couple of weeks I’m gonna get more blonde highlights so it will blend even better. So from now on I am pink on the weekends wohoo

And YES, pinkies have more fun than blondes!!

I’m a bit addicted to my iPhone these days. And it’s not just the Facebook app anymore.. Let me introduce you to a fantastic new app called SpotOn Radio. It’s so incredibly easy to use, just like an app should be.

What it does is create radio stations for you based on an artist you choose, and plays similar artists. Nothing new, but the cool thing is that you can tweak the station as you’re listening to the songs by voting the song up or down (you don’t have to). By voting a song down, the app will remember not to play that song/artist again, and by voting a song up it will play more of that artist etc etc. I’ve discovered so many new bands this way! And it’s commercial free! And free! This song is my song of the week, been humming it to myself all day

I’m so exhausted after these last couple of days, so much dancing and so little sleep!

The death metal concert on Thursday was a lot of fun, it was so weird seeing my brother in law on stage rocking out on his guitar infront of so many people, I was so proud! And my sister looked so inlove, gazing up at her husband being all rockstar and stuff Hehe. It was so dark in there that I didn’t manage to get any good pics. I’m kind of bad at taking pics of myself in general, I guess a good blog should have more pics of the blogger, I definitely plan on getting better at that.

Then Friday I was at this sick event called 25 Hr People, it was a 25 hour cruise to Finland and back with some of Stockholm’s best and biggest names in the underground techno community – Joel Mull, Style of Eye, Özgur Can to name a few. I was struggling to find music that I enjoyed, so I wound up going to bed early and instead got up in time to listen to Niklas Paus, Jola Bola, Özgur Can, Esteban Nunez, and their set wound up being one of the sickest parties I’ve been to! They played so many great tracks and I danced like a crazy person. It felt like I was at the Sonar Festival or something. And the people I was with and I had really good chemistry so we laughed our asses off for hours. Good times for sure!

Here is a short clip of what the party was like, you can see me dancing towards the end haha
