cd CD Information

Prelude 
Let`s go! To give the CD a "lift-off" I`ve chosen a short, tempremental flamenco prelude. Blending classical and distorted electric guitars, now you know what is awaiting you on this CD.

Madness   
Was originally a vocal song about chaos and the two world wars. The problem was, I felt too happy when I played it. It`s damn difficult to illustrate two world wars in music when you feel happy playing. So I kept the melody for the guitar, instead of giving it to a singer. And here it is.

Babylon   
Was one of the first, if not the first song I ever did. Written in `92, but re-arranged in `97. The main ideas are still the same. I`ve always been fond of scales that bring you to the Middle East. So let`s go to Babylon.

Daydreaming 
Where was I, I must have been daydreaming. Sometimes you just catch yourself floating away and suddenly you figure out that hours have passed. But that`s OK, that`s enjoying life.

Rainbows (As Time Slips By)   
This is a love song. But at the same time it creates a melancholic & reflective mood, seeing yourself and your surroundings change as time slips by. I told Dean, my friend the engineer, that I would like to have some rain on this track as an effect. And I asked whether I should record some real rain in Denmark, `cause I wanted it to be real rain. He said no, I have some better rain over here. And he had. On our last night, on our last mix, suddenly rain started pouring down. We took a mike and recorded it.

With Love-Op. 1 No. 10 
This is a soft, mellow but at the same time sad and thoughtful tune. This could be the ultimate love ballad, at least a friend told me it would be a hit, who knows? It`s a tribute to love and a very special woman. Enjoy!

Andante-Op. 1 No. 1   
This piece was actually the first classical music I ever wrote, written back in `92-`93 in my very first year as a guitar player. Inspired both by the strictness of Bach, the freedom of Rock and by the temper of Spanish music.

Stonehenge   
A tribute to the mysterious and impressive work of art, done nearly 4000 years ago. Stonehenge is a mystery, a wonder of the world. It might be the English answer to the Egyptian pyramids. Who built it and why? How could man lift stones 50 tons big?

The Road Home, Pt. 1 
This was written during several trips home from a town nearby. More and more music appeared for every time I went home, and finally one night it was done. Some trips were silent and calm, some even with a heaven full of stars to show me "The Road Home".

The Two Friends-Op. 2 No. 4 
This was written for a very good friend of mine, Peter Lomann Christoffersen and myself. I`m happy and proud that he liked the piece, and that he went to record this with me! My brother says, that to him, it sounds like a cafe in France with a view to the sea. Thanks, man!

The Road Home, Pt. 2   
Your "Road Home" is also sometimes lonely and tough. Sometimes it`s even tough to find your way.

Zenta (Goodbye To A Friend) 
A song written to a close friend of mine, namely my dog Zenta. Everyone who has had a pet knows just how it feels to lose a friend. The introtalk (in Danish for those who didn`t know) is taken from old videoshots of me and my family. Hi Zenta...Goodbye my friend!
