ICIT WEBZINE - 30 YEARS

ICIT WEBZINE - 30 YEARS

 

This year is approximately 30 years since I started my first music zine called "Skrota zinet". Back then I printed the zine´s on A4 sized paper. That was in the mid-90´s and a few years later internet would be in every people´s homes. Except for making interviews with various punk and metal bands I also started to record live concerts with a cheap Walkman tape recorder. Needless to say, it was not until the early 2000´s that I invested in some proper recording gear. From the start I recorded both video and audio recordings of the live concerts that I attended. 

I would like to say thank you very much to all the bands that I have recorded, talked to, interviewed during all of these 30 years. Many of you folks are my dear friends, excellent musicians and superb human beings. Thank you for the music and for the friendship! 

I hope we can still make great live recordings for another 30 years!
 

Much love and respect to all of you! You know who you are!

Kebnekajse Bagarmossen 2025-12-13

KEBNEKAJSE - RECENSION - BAGARMOSSEN - 2025-12-13 Sveriges högsta berg och band, Kebnekajse, kallade musikfolket till Bagarmossens Folkets Hus denna Luciaprogg´s kväll i mörka december. Tillsammans med Wasa Express och Jan Hammarlund så förgyllde de denna trivsamma kväll.   Förväntan var stor när Kebnekajse äntrade scenen och drog igång med ”Leksands Skänklåt”. Som vanligt fanns det bitar som bandet utvecklade med denna låt även denna konsert. Hela bandet fick plats att briljera och visa varför de fortfarande är Sveriges bästa folkrockmusiker anno 2025.   Sedan blev det dags för en av Kebnekajses stora begivenheter, nämligen den klassiska ”Hårgalåten”, med sitt distinkta malande som senare fortgår med lite ylande gitarrer som nästan blir lite bluesiga, för att avslutas med härliga folkrocktoner. Succén är ett faktum och det är längesedan som bandet varit så taggade som just idag verkar det som.       Den norska visan, ”Sangenuten”, tar konserten vida...

IEM-TAPING

Except for ordinary audience recordings made with external microphones and mostly digital recorders or DAT-recorders these days, there´s also some tapers that also focus on so-called "IEM-Taping". We got the chance to ask some questions from a "IEM-taper" located in USA. Here´s what the taper had to say about IEM-recordings. How would you describe “In Ear Monitors” (IEM) for  those who doesn´t know what it is?  Most amplified live music has an onstage monitor system for band members to hear themselves.  In traditional settings, there were wedge monitor speakers at the lip of the stage, each with a mix  specifically designed for an individual player. Guitar players often monitored their guitars by the sound  coming from their amplifier. However, this can result in a very loud and chaotic stage volume as each  band member struggles to hear himself or herself through the wall of sound. Also, consider band  members that walk around the stage; as they ...

Crash Nomada

It´s hard to come across a band with such diverse and professional musicianship as the Swedish Gypsy-Folk-Rock band “Crash Nomada”. Fast, upbeat, slow, moody and with the roots of punk the band has reached their first album which is purely being sung in their native Swedish language. We sent over some questions to the band to see what influenced the band this time around. Singer and guitarist Ragnar Bey answered the questions for us.                                                        Courtesy: Crash Nomada First of all we were a bit late this time around compiling an interview for your latest release. The album has been out now for a while. Which reactions have you got this time around so far? Ragnar: The album has received good reviews and people have been very positive which is great. Although we had hoped at least some peop...
