For some reason I’ve always been a little uncomfortable with birthdays but today (or now yesterday) was a great one so what the hell, mineaswell share some love. The day has taught me many things about life, about people and…

New song will be online this week. It’s called “Daylusions”. I really want to destroy my voice for this one. Also playing a show in Pirita (tallinn) on the weekend, more on that later. I’m also considering doing some street…
