Infatiation of the new

Composed and performed by Staffan Lincoln

Chords by Ludvig Linge

This song is about the love of things that are new. What would a fountain feel like, if you could slow down time?

The rush

Composed and performed by Staffan Lincoln

The musical theme of this piece is tension - release.

There will be a light

Composed and performed by Staffan Lincoln

Whispered Vocals Alice Myllenberg

Accordion by Torgny Heimler

I'm like a planet, I'm impossible to stop.

Makin a baby

Composed and performed by Staffan Lincoln

Additional Tinkering Daniel Johansson and Ludvig Linge

Expecting a baby is a wonderful thing. And it's nice to sing songs to the tummy. Maybe if you like Beck and childrens songs, this will make your cookie crumb.

Should have caught a cab

Composed and performed by Staffan Lincoln

Electric Guitarr by Krister Wendin

Piano Solo by Ludvig Linge

The song is about a friend of mine who walked all the way home late one night. Or rather, he had the intention of doing so, but a gang of three caught him half way.

The more we play

Composed and performed by Karl-Anders Johansson

Sometimes it's hard to distinguish between dreams, make-believe and reality.

You know me

Composed by Staffan Lincoln and Pontus Jarenskog

Piano by Staffan Lincoln

Additional Piano by Magnus Perlerius

Having someone love you so much that they observe and cater to your every need is a rare thing. This is the kind of love I want to give and have.

Something bad

Composed by Karl-Anders Johansson

You know that feeling? When something bad is pretty?

This is my first stumbling attempt with lyrics and vocals. Hope you like it.

Paying the higher price

Composed by Staffan Lincoln

Vocals by Staffan Lincoln and Therese Götsten

Didgeridoo by Per Gustafsson

I actually bought shoes in Poland, but Russia sounded better in the song.

Bröllopssång

Composed by Hans Melin

Song and Engineering by Staffan Lincoln

Hans wrote this song for his wedding. It's a soft song about the love they have, and how it will give them both a full life. The weather at the day of their wedding was marvellous. 

Tell them

Music and song by Staffan Lincoln

Guitar by Hans Melin

Bass by Markus Videsson

Made for the disco dance floor, this song celebrates my six month anniversary with a very special girl.

Double

Lyrics by Staffan Lincoln

Music and song by Staffan Lincoln and Peter Karlsson

Viola by Sarah Berntsson

Guitar by Peter Karlsson

Mellow and slightly symphonic, this track borrows it's harmonic landscape from an old German tune called Doppelganger.

Good thing

Music and song by Staffan Lincoln

Saxophone by Ludvig Linge

The song is about reading signs when you are in limbo. I wrote it in the beginning of a long distance relationship.

Take the shape of anything

Composed by Staffan Lincoln

Keyboard David Stomeus

When you know that you are dreaming, what do you try? What do you feel like experiencing?

Tried to write letters

Composed by Staffan Lincoln, Ludvig Linge and Åsa Ekman

Written on the first day of the year 2003, this is a mellow song. Our voices were deepened by  partying the night before.

The song reminds me of Stan by Dido and Eminem. 

Know you

Composed by Staffan Lincoln

After writing this song, it took me a while to start recording it, because it made me feel naked and I needed to put some distance between what I was feeling and what the words in the song said.

Be there for you

Composed by Staffan Lincoln and Henrik José

Backseat driving by Per Gustafsson and Ludvig Linge

This soul track about devotion and some kind of notion of eternity features a new talent in the Swedish Kebab group, Henrik - aka Bliss. The song is recorded and mastered in his studio in Helsingborg and is a mellow track that won't distract you too much if you listen to it while reading a book.

Touch of 6581

Composed by Karl-Anders Johansson

This fast-paced tune features the sound of the (in)famous Commodore 64 SID chip. There is no deeper meaning behind this production. I was happy when I made it, and that mood is clearly reflected in the tune.

Pure powder

Composed by Per Gustafsson

This is a chillout tune combining lofi and hifi sounds. It's a warm summer night tune, composed when I was dreaming about a cold winter day. Includes vinyl scratching, arpeggiated synths, piano leads and lots of filter sweeps.

Välkommen Sonja

Skriven för dop och framförd av Staffan. Inspelningen går i 3/8+5/8, vilket ger låten ett allvar som jag tyckte passade tillfället.

Kantorn som kompade på dopet tyckte låten gjorde sig bättre som en vals.
