UKM is kind of a competition-ish culture arrangement for the youth of Norway. You can send in your movies, art, photos, preform dancing or music or other scenery stuff. So me and my brother participated this year along with Simon. We sent in six movies or so and one giant drawing all three of us made.

But ALSO, we're in the production team sorta thing, so we record all the performances, make interviews and stuff to put on the UKM's homepage. It was very fun doing all this, great people there and lotsa fun.

And all of your movies and the one picture we sent in were chosen to go to the next step in the competition, sort of in American Idol or whatever, now we're off to the next level, joining in with other's culture-based work in the next round... That's cool.

My favorite performance on yesterday's UKM show, was played by Mathias Stubø on the drums and his Mac, along with his awesome collegue: Ole Gaasø on piano. Their names may be un-pronouncable for you guys speaking English, so here's how you say their names: How to pronounce Mathias Stubø and Ole Gaasø.

Incase you don't remember it, I'm making a music video for Mathias Stubø (go practice pronouncing his name), to his song called Just Like That, which you may pleasure your ears with.

Anyways, they played a song called Contort Beat, and it was awesome.
