  1. Jag vill dö

Julen är en underbar tid. Varm och murrig. Man kan vara med familjen. Man kan få presenter. Man kan vara ledig.

Julen kan också vara en vidrig tid. Om man är ensam och inte har nånstans att ta vägen, kan det vara den värsta tiden. Det är svinkallt ute och det lyser varmt och färgglatt i de andras fönster.

Jag har sett en kvinna löpa amok på tunnelbanan på julafton. Sjunga glatt och dra av sig kläderna.

Jag har sett en vuxen man dra ner byxorna och bajsa på Stora Nygatan i mellandagarna.

Själv har jag mest tagit ut det på mig själv. Suttit ensam hemma och ruvat på min plan.

Julen är en underbar tid. Den förtjänar sina fina melodier och sina glada sånger. Julen är också en usel tid och även den tiden förtjänar sina fina melodier och euforiska sånger.

Det här är en julsång till alla som kan finna hopp, glädje och värme i den! Eller bara en motvikt till allt det andra.

God jul!

Martin Luuk

Single released in December, 2013.

  3. May Peace Be By Your Side
  4. Nightfeeder

The

divine seed.

Trees

don’t move for 200 years, only sway in the wind with feet
safely anchored knee-deep in earth.

What’s

your restlessness? A restless tree, what a sad humor. A petty
joke.

Trees

travel in generations, each contracted for a lifetime.

I

wonder if they gossip. The Oak to the birch about their far and
away offspring exploring the outer perimeters of biology.

Talking

about the frontier, cutting edge. Voices from the rim.

A

letter from a pigeon every now and then from a lonely oak who
pushed himself beyond the tree line. One who went for it.
One of awe. In a spectator sport cheered on by thousands
of applauding leaves in the wind.

Representing

a species. An ambassador saying “I work alone”, reluctant
to represent his masses.

An

unproven breed, a divine seed.

EP released in December, 2013.

Written and produced by Nicolas Makelberge.

  1. A Gentleman’s Story

Music video

Director & DoP: Kristian Bengtsson
Costume & Styling: Sara Forsberg
Editing: Marcus Söderlund
Gardener: Henning Fürst


I was young
I didn’t have much fun
I walked the streets alone
In mother’s evening clothes

I didn’t know
What I was looking for
I had no clue
’Til I found you

You glanced at me
Down by the urinal
You took my hand
And showed me what I am

My world was never yours
Your tastes far superior
I went out as you came in
So I just walked back in again
Each gentleman
Has some poison in his soul
His manners and demeanour
Keep his turmoil in control

Whereas a young man like me
Was susceptible to the poisoned seed
I knew my fate was sealed
The day you planted it in me

Now 40 years
Have come to pass since then
40 years
Of pain and shame and longing

My kids are grown
They have kids of their own
At nights I sit alone
And write my little sad stories
Of dreams that were
But never came to be
Of sad and tired lives
And a gentleman’s needs

My world was never yours
Your tastes far superior
I went out as you came in
So I just waltzed back in again

Each gentleman
Keeps some poison in his soul
But my all year tan and starched white shirts
Keep my turmoil in control

But once in a while
There are holes in my control
So while my wife’s still sleeping
I head back to the old urinal

Each time God blinks His eyes
He gambles with my soul

Single released in June, 2012.

Written and performed by Martin Luuk. Produced by Henning Fürst.

There’s a fine line between self-disgust and self-belief, a small step from human interaction to complete solitude. Shot at Skeppsbar in Stockholm on December 18th 2010 the video captures what was in many ways just another forgotten gig. Or was it? Let the camera be your witness.

Einstein said that he wanted to know how God thinks. On my behalf, I’m not as interested in what he thinks compared to how he might feel. In both cases it’s fairly presumptuous to assume we can think what God thinks, even to feel what God feels. However silly, or not, we keep on trying, and seem pretty darn content with some of our achievements, these scientific and artistic shadows – the food for our own imagination. Maybe, it all taken together paints a rather compelling picture, aids us through our moments here that would otherwise be utter darkness. “I only compose a song in hope to catch God in three minutes of sound. I always fail of course and have to start all over again.”

As we all know, emphasis on the rational versus the intuitive is largely the difference between science and art, these two modes of being, and the various blends of these, constituting the basic difference between artists and scientists. What they have in common though is a distinguished need to formulate and make sense of the world as experienced – through their own chosen language, be it mathematics led by science, or music led by art. And as our lives are both witnessed or experienced without and within, science is painting this absolutely astonishing picture from without, while art does the same from within.

“It is a truth, finally, about creatures, in whose minds, far more deeply interfused than any scientific hypothesis or even any archetypal myth, is the Something whose dwelling is everywhere, the essential Suchness of the world, which is at once immanent and transcendent – “in here” as the profoundest and most ineffable of private experiences and at the same time “out there”, as the mental aspect of the material universe, as the emergence into cosmic mind of the organization of an infinity of organizations perpetually perishing and perpetually renewed.” – Aldous Huxley

“Understanding” in these two realms is what’s makes living exciting and how we explore both outer and inner space. When art manages to communicate our inner experience of this world, it helps us access the deepest modes of satisfaction available to the human personality, then among each-other we rejoice, and celebrate our moment of “understanding”. “Do you FEEL what I FEEL?” Or we might just look at each other and smile. If you feel art, you have no questions, need no more answers, you understand. Art IS the answer. The same goes for science. “Do you THINK what I THINK?” Yes! Let’s have a cigar! Let’s celebrate! And so on and on it goes.

We need to understand. It’s in our nature. Nothing frustrates us more than not understanding. Be it the rational or the emotional. Living in what to us seems like chaos invokes a tremendous anxiety to our species. Understanding on the other hand makes us feel whole, not needing answers, not having any further questions, if only for the fleeting moment, brings us happiness.

New generations come, old leave us, along with their answers. New poets and scientists appear to come to our aid, reformulate and redefine our Universe, our sense of place and purpose. We are not adrift alone in empty space, ladies and gentlemen, whatever mission we might be on here on earth is up to our imagination. God was kindhearted enough to leave some of the making of this world (fun) up to us.

Fula Edith – En dag blev vi stora är en skamlös berättelse som inte grottar ner sig i offerskap eller sentimentalitet. Den svävar längst ut på kanten av alla känslor och är en allt-är-sant-berättelse i A5-format.
