Magic Chairs came out a year ago now and currently we are on our last tour with these songs. It is a really good tour so far, we just feel really happy about everything. The record we have made, the many concerts we’ve played, the Efterkids project and of course An Island – the film we have made with Vincent Moon. Once this tour finishes in Copenhagen on March 18th we will take a break before we start working on our 4th album, but we are already full of ideas and motivation for making our next album – can’t wait to get started!

Thanks to everyone who has supported us this past year. We are thankful that we are able to do this and we are grateful towards our many friends that help us in so many ways to create our records and to play concerts across the globe. Thank You!

Here is a goody video we did for IMPALA

As this is the farewell to the Gift Week we have a lot of stuff for you today.


First we present to you a remix of First Floor Power´s God Damn Your Fingers. The remix is made by Casper Clausen from Efterklang and this might be his first official work ever in his own name!
Visit: First Floor Power – Listen to the original version
Download: God Damn Your Fingers – Casper Clausen remix Mp3

Then next we have two videos!
A new video for Doppelgänger from our album Tripper (2004) and a video for Mimeo from our album Parades (2007). The last one has been online for some time but we never presented it properly as it truly deserve. Please enjoy the videos we think they are brilliant both of them.

It is Day 3 of our Gift Week and today we have something very special for you! It is a new music video for our song Cutting Ice To Snow made by Jeremiah Zagar and Herzliya Films from New York.

Jeremiah is currently riding a wave of acclaim and success for his documentary film In a Dream. The film uses Efterklang music and that is how and why this video developed. The material used in the video is deleted scenes and extra material for the documentary. We really like this video! It is very uplifting and different at the same time. We hope you will like it too!

ENJOY!

If Josh reads this then maybe he can comment with some info about himself and his music?
