MOUCHETOUBE - April.08 : Sandy Mouche's playlist // Tingsek - Too Many Feelings at the Same Time
Magnus Tingsek, the musician from Malmö, releases today his third solo album: Too Many Feelings at the Same Time. We still remember Tingsek (2005) and World of it's own (2006) and, ten years ago, his forgotten band ewing.1, including Helena Josefsson.
According to his space, it has been two years since we last heard new music from Magnus Tingsek. Too Many Feelings At The Same Time is the new album and it is a large step forward – both musically and lyrically. Two years in the making it proves that the Swede from the southern town of Malmö has created his very own musical signature. In a cottage remotely situated in the depth of the “Skåne” countryside Magnus has with the help of his trusted brother and musical ally and brother Anders Tingsek (from Loosegoats), created the third chapter in the ongoing saga that is Tingsek. The revealing title hosts 10 tracks that are as deeply personal and equally unique as they are elevating and stirring. The album is the result of a tumultuous year for Magnus; a year filled with let downs and doubts, but also filled with hope and love – a year of many feelings. Tingsek’s musical expression has since the self-titled debut via 2006 years World Of It’s Own been as consistent as it has been unique. The soul and the disco are never far away but the acoustic folk-rock, doused with a sprinkle of Brill Building, shines through every now and again.

The song writing process differed this time around – instead of writing a bunch of songs – Magnus concentrated on an intense wave of creating, in many instances together with Anders. The isolation in that cottage made him lock himself in for 14 hours a day in the pursuit of the perfect musical surroundings for the new songs. He now instinctively knows what works best for his own songs; a skill that has made him chose to play most of the instruments himself this time.
Older brother Anders has always been important in Magnus creative process not only as a sounding board but as a committed song-writing partner and editor of ideas. Let is shine is the first single, a mix of soul and blues. Both You Amaze Me with it’s 80’s groove and the suggestive I’m Not Supposed to Be Like This started as Anders’s musical etches that Magnus reworked into songs that are both highlights on the album. Too Many Feelings At The Same Time is when all is said and done an album that works on many different levels, something that manifests itself with emphasis on many songs – from the exciting March Moon, via the declaration of love on Love Story to the achingly beautiful string filled soul ballad Coming back In from the Cold. It is an album that houses as many feelings as strong songs and confirms Tingsek’s position as one of Sweden’s most talented and original artists.

MOUCHETUBE - Feb.08 (IV): Gessle's top 3
- Per Gessle - Smakar På Ett Regn
"Absolutely addictive melody, and now that I know what the lyrics mean, I love it even more."
- Per Gessle - Om du bara vill
"As good as anything he's ever written, this song shows him at the height of his powers. I chose to showcase the new "unplugged" version from the En Händig Man tour, since it shares the spotlight with Helena."
- Gessle - Do you wanna be my baby?
"About ten years ago, I went into my local record store looking to complete my Roxette CD collection, but they didn't have anything from them. They did, however, have "The World According to Gessle". I picked it up on a whim, figuring that since he was the main songwriter in Roxette, his solo stuff would be a decent replacement for the full Rox experience. And so my love for Per's solo stuff started, to the point where I prefer it to Roxette (heresy, I know :p)"

"The fantastic Helena Josefsson performs "Never Never (My Dynamo), the second single off her solo debut "Dynamo", on the Swedish TV show "Bingolotto", on April 9th, 2007."

"Helena Josefsson (from Sandy Mouche and Son of a Plumber). Kanal Lokal - Skåne direkt - Wednesday 23rd January 2008. Watch Helena dancing. No more words are needed."
"I'm not sure why she went with the remix instead of the album cut, but wow, that's some great dancing"

- Helena Josefsson - By your side
"It is the only official video from Dynamo. We can't understand why he didn't trust her ..."
"I didn't like the song at first. I felt it needed more guitar, or something. Then I gave it a second listen, and it just clicked. It's now in permanent rotation in my video playlist. Can't wait for the full album to come out! And Helena looks so much like my friend Ashley in this video, it's eerie :p"
"I'm loving the outfit Helena!!! Cool song too..."

Sandy Mouche's rehearsals and recordings for a new album (VII): Sandy Christmas
Today was the 5th day in the studio. We started working on a song that I had written for my solo project at first but after trying it with Sandy Mouche it finally fell in to place. It´s an arena song. It´s almost impossible to play this one on a small stage. It could work but its real environment is on the big arenas. The first acoustic guitar was recorded here and after a few different angles on the mic plus a line in we found the sound we were looking for. We used the Akg mic here and Per Blomgren´s "Runesson" guitar and quite frankly we were amazed by the result. Since this is our first album that we record on our own we discover new things and sounds every session. It´s nice. This song is only about three minutes long and built like a mountain, you climb and climb all the way to the top and then you take the big leap from the cliff ledge...
Sandy Mouche - Spiderweb suit (New York Waiting OST)
Played by the Swedish band Sandy Mouche (vocals and lyrics by Helena Josefsson). This song is included in the album Sandy Mouche ... and poems for the unborn (2006) and in the film New York Waiting.
