   About Motstraums
Motstraums was founded and released in order to build sounds around Norwegian nature, culture and tradition. Motstraums can be translated to upstreams or "against the stream". Motstraums’ music must be understood in the context of woods, mountains, water, summer, autumn, winter and fall. The history of the Norwegian people, stretching from the first settlers to the start of the Danish rule in Norway, is also a great source of music making. It is not Motstraums mission to romanticise about i.e. Norse heathenism, but rather to make a musical interpretation of it. The sound strives after the organically sounding waves and Motstraums’ sounds have never attempted to reach more than a handful of listeners. Motstraums will continue to create and share as long as it is meaningful and giving. By the way, Motstraums likes the coffee to be black, as black as Deathhammer's riffs after 2 minutes and 28 seconds in their song Unholy Sacrifice. realeditorbest profile toolsrealeditorbest profile tools

Despite of my long hiatus with music, I've had some great ideas for future music. I suppose most of my music was written in the winter for the simple fact that the spring and summer are more active times of the year for me. I have a ton of military training coming up within the next year, so there won't be that much activity for me. Wish me luck! Enjoy your vacation!

Cheers,
Michael

Bjornar, how are you? I'm sorry I haven't been talking very much on here. I haven't been ignoring you. I've just been extremely busy. Tell me how your music project is going and how things are in your neck of the woods.

Helg.

Underbart, jag har fixat en maillista nu, så att jag kan hålla kontakten under sommaren även då jag är utomlands och inte har råd att springa inom myspace hela tiden. Joina gärna!
Hoppas att du får en lika skön sommar som jag vandrar mot! Tassa gärna förbi och lyssna på min nya pianoversion av Week med, om du har tid =) Den finns till vänster i en egen player...
