There is still one day left of Øya (today), but I thought I’d just say that I’m still alive and that I’m having a wonderful time. I have mostly been following the wonderful Astrid and Sindre around and I now have a ton of wonderful artists that I will listen to this fall.

My “I have to listen more to these when I get home” list:

• Edward Sharpe and the magnetic zeroes
• Sharon Jones
• Destroyer
• Kanye West
• Warpaint
• Real Ones
• Sandra Kolstad
• Säkert
• Janelle Monàe
• Explosions in the sky
• Hercules and love affair
• Guided by voices
• Noah and the whale
• The pains of being pure at heart
• Hilde Marie Kjersem
• Montée
• Lykke Li

And I’ll see if I can see Jonas Alaska, The Avett Brothers, Kyuss Lives!, WU LYF, Mari Boine, Sebadoh and Håkan Hellström today. Now shower, lunch date and more music.

Tomorrow I’ll be back in Trondheim and then summer will be over. See you on the other side.
