I recently stumbled upon a Lego Cad like program called Bricksmith, see [0]. It’s good fun, but like all Cad programs ( i presume) not easy to use at first. It’s mac only, alas. But some of you (i hope more then Madsen reads this, fx. Morten also) might like it.
I made a stupid “drawing” which can be seen on Kristian Bust’s new website [1]. Worth to check out, the website that is, if your into non-conform art with something to say.

After 2 years (2 fscking years!) I’ve finally finished the track for the Composition Challenge: Kitchop (MP3, on Google Pages). As you may — or may not — recall, Jesper’s challenge to me was, “make a song containing at least three things from your kitchen and you rap … in danish.” My challenge to him was,“make a song with real hand-claps (that is, you clap) in it, no drums/drumsamples and at least one instrument must have audible reverb.“
Jesper finished his song (The Devil) in, like, 1 week(!), so I guess it’s about time I finished mine. Sorry for the delay, Jesper.
Update (June 19, 2008, 19:10): There were a couple of mixing and compression related problems with the track, so a new (and better) version has been uploaded. If you’ve downloaded the song before this update please re-download it and enjoy even more!
Asked my friend Mikkel (aka. DJ Smart Fætter Mikkel) to put a little scratch on our recent Migato Estalo Co. track Køledisk, and the result is the hit of the summer 2008. Get it while it’s hot! (Kindly hosted on Google Pages for your download pleasure.)
DJ Smart Fætter Mikkel got the idea that we should make some beats, exchange them and rap away. Sounded like a fun idea, so why not?
Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce to you, the fruit of our labor!
Both tracks are 192 kbit/s MP3s and hosted at GooglePages for your downstream pleasure.
Personally, I had a lot of fun doing it, so we might be cooking up some more at some point if Fætter Mikkel is up for it. ;)
In other news: I did a little updating on http://lillesvin.googlepages.com /andersk.madsen (where I used to keep some Oggs for download). Among other things I replaced the Oggs with 192 kbit/s MP3s (sorry folks, it’s not that I don’t think Ogg is great, it’s that everyone who makes iPods and other MP3-players thinks it’s not worth supporting) and actually uploaded a track I’d completely forgotten to release — Sommerblues — my first solo-track in Danish! It’s been available in terrible quality at my last.fm profile for a while, but now it’s here in reasonable quality. And finally I left a little teaser on the page (http://lillesvin.googlepages.com /andersk.madsen)…
We use Palle’s mom’s recipe as it is so easy to recall. So easy that it’s sometimes hard to remember and begs to be mod’ed. Erm.
It’s: 1L yogurt, 1L buttermilk. That makes 2L of cow stuff. Then the double of chicken stuff, ie. 4 egg yolks. Preferable without salmonella. Then 6 spoonfuls of sugar. And finally at least 1 spoonful of vanilla. You could go with less, like 1 tea-spoonful, vanilla if you’d approach the real mom recipe. The easiness is in the relation 2:4:6, if you notice. Now stir. Then eat with so called kammerjunker (can be seen in the above picture) — preferable on a sunny day.
