Waterfall in Gold

Two years ago, I made some pictures published in the blog post Authom reflections.
A couple of weeks ago I went back, trying to take advantage of the low sun. Alas I miscalculated the angle of the sun. When I arrived it was gone. 

This totally different picture is made about 200 meters away from the spot. Not what I was looking for, but I think I can live with this. 

Colors and contrast are slightly altered, but not much.

Will the Circle Be Unbroken?

I have no idea who made this sculpture, forgot to look. But I found it in Florø, outside the culture house

Tripod - Metal Hammer Norway

I had a promoshot with Tripod a few months ago.

I'm pleased with the result in Metal Hammer Norway, and so is the band. They looks tougher than real life, giving a lot of credibility in the right circles. And thats what rock promo pictures is all about, credibility.
Sorry. Almost forgot to say; their new album Four Coins will be available soon, good luck Tripod.

Here is the original, as sent to the band.

EthnoBass.org

 

http://www.mundimapa.com/ethnobass2003/index.html

A long time ago, I  and spanish gal named Araceli Tzigane made a website mainly about world, folk and ethnic music. The idea was something wikilike, a collective site of information about alternative music around the globe.
I'm proud to say that this was back in 2000 (maybe it started even a bit earlyer), long before anybody had heard about wikipedia and such.

What stopped us was probably that we didn't have the programing skills required to make our own content managing system. 

The original ethnobass.org domain is now occupied by domainhosters :-(
Shame on them.

But this summer I met Araceli and her husband at Førdefestivalen 2011 :-)
She told me that most of the site still is online mirrored at her website mundimapa.com.

So here it is ethnobass, as it was, back in 2003

Gratulerer Gabriel

Gabriel Fliflet er av folkemusikkbransjen kåret til Årets folkemusiker 2011.

"- Årets pris går til en svært god musiker som bringer folkemusikken ut til stadige nye publikumsgrupper gjennom sitt virke. Gabriel Fliflet er en allsidig musiker som er involvert i en rekke prosjekt og konstellasjonar, men som fremfor alt har utviklet seg som en sterk enkeltutøver med sin unike musikalitet, sitt fortellertalent og en smittende humor. De siste årene har han markert seg sterkt som komponist gjennom bestillingsverk til både Festspillene i Bergen og Osafestivalen. Verkene har blitt svært godt mottatt av både kritikere og publikum, og viser Fliflet sin teft for originale melodier, og energifylt samspill."

Førdefestivalen 2011 - Esma Redzepova (Macedonia)

I never got the name of his second singer, But whoever she was, she did a pretty good job.

EDIT: The comment bellow says that the singer is her daughter.
I haven't been able to verify this.

Once again my spanish friends, Araceli TZIGANE and Juan Antonio Vázquez.
