Bitbear Presents
.: Sunset Through The Rain :.
At Solskogen 2020
⊂(;(工);)⊃
I’ve been going to Solskogen for 8 years now and this
being the very last one makes me sad. Solskogen
represents my reintroduction to the demoscene in 2012
after being away for more than a decade.
I got pingo’s ex-girlfriend’s ticket and not long
after arrival, I was invited into BHF’s tent and spent
the next 4 hours listening to him sharing stories
about his Commodore 64 adventures and discussing
with Brandon Walsh how epic Doskpop and Lizardking is.
It was the warmest and best welcome I could have
received and I felt right at home, right away. I
remember thinking "this feels right. I belong here."
Solskogen is feeling artistically complete once a year.
It is being able to share the enthusiasm for the
greatest and most creative culture computers have ever
fostered with like-minded people.
It is being surrounded by people you admire and look
up to, who have made truly mind-blowing things by their
sheer talent and incredible imaginations – walk up to
them, and talk to them. Share a beer, or a full bottle
of vodka with internationally appraised artists while
debating the ingenuity of Purple Motion’s lead
melodies.
Solskogen is working day and night to finish a
production and the enthralling feeling of seeing or
hearing it on the big screen or enormous PA system
afterward. Sharing the experience with others and
gathering their reactions and feedback.
Arriving late and having to use a cellphone
flashlight to be able to raise a tent in the nearby
forest. The amazing Saturday night burgers, steak
and waffles. Waffles! The incredibly hospitable and
likable crew. I love you guys.
Thank you so much for giving me some of the best days
of my life. You are amazing!
This song is dedicated to you. Although it's rainy
days ahead with Solskogen being over, we have one
final party to light up our lives like a Sunset
Through The Rain.
.: Credits :.
I want to thank my wife Anneli aka litn for providing
great feedback to the song and especially lifting the
take-off to new heights. I'm also grateful for her
being so understanding of my hobby and not only
allowing, but encouraging me to spend time on making
music. I love you!
A huge thanks to Modulo One for giving invaluable
ideas helping the lead melody in particular and to
MAGNUS for endless amounts of mix feedback. This song
would definitely sound worse without your help!
And I can't forget my daughter Liv for her enthusiasm
towards my music and also for wanting to spend time
with me recording and producing her own ideas. It's
so wonderful spending time with her.
