Additional Information:
"'Et liv' (A Life) was a tune I did for my friend Josefine's short-film for the competition Close-Up 2000. It is a very ambient film about a young writer struggling to get to grips with his needs and loneliness in life. The music was inspired mainly by Thomas Newman's 'American Beauty' and is very much like its movie, lowkey and atmospheric. Piano is the dominating instrument along with synth backgrounds. It was very exciting for me to do for two reasons mainly (besides the fact that I love doing music for pictures): 1) It had to be done very fast - I had less than 48 hours to do more than 6 minutes of music, and 2) It is the first time I wrote anything with a real human voice in it! I had to do a small 'operatic' peace for a keyscene in the film, and the star of the movie, Jens Bryggman, knew a Norwegian opera singer, Eir Inderhaug, who is featured here - thanks a lot, Eir!"

velusip All I ever wanted was some Sunshine.	Maybe Icicle. Can't deny that Thomas Newman - American Beauty motif, though.
