Raimons has been played on swedish national radio twice . We laughed our heads off .First time it was a really bad track , "astronaut dance" or something it was called but they obviously took it seriously .Raimons had just sent it in on a whim to see what happens.
The second time he won tickets to the Hultsfred festival in a music competition where you should write a track about the festival. This track was also totaly idiotic but sort of funky in a Beck kind of way.
The best part was that they interviewed him live on stage during the festival and played his track again.
I wasn't there but i was at home listening and laughin my ass off. Raimons was of course drunk ,he spilled a bewerage all over the stage as the interview started and you could hear the reporters lose their focus.One of the reporters asked Raimons how it felt hearing himself on the radio and Raimons replied "it is always nice to hear myself on the radio" .
The reporter was obviously put off by this unespected cocky reply and said with a kinda condensating tone " to bad you can't hear yourself on the radio now then "
And Raimons replyed "i can hear myself" . The reporter paused for a couple of seconds as he semed to realize that they where both wearing headphones and you could hear some in the audience laugh (mostly raimons equaly drunk mates) . He then abruptly ended the interview , "ok here is Raimons with the track "hultsfred" hahaha!!!
I laughed for a week ! One of Raimons finer moments =)

not really THAT random, seeing as one of the two presenters , is pomme de terre, one of the mods of this board, who also always makes a thread about his show when it's about to broadcast.
well, I say "mod", I mean that in the broadest possible sense.. as in: it says so on his jacket and his name turned grey. that's about it, really.

Yes such unknown places as the United States of America, France and Cuba...the world must be opening up for you through your music.

I've given up writing music, because I've realised that I'm completely wank at it.
However, about 3 years ago, when I was here in Lithuania I wrote a track called Vienisas (it means "lonely" in Lithuanian). It's available here: http://stage.vitaminic.com/manicminer
Anyway, I gave out the above web address to a few people here and a few CDs (the response was entirely underwhelming) and then more or less forgot about it.
This summer, again here in Lithuania, me and wor lass were watching television when the fucking track came on, being used as background music on a news programme (during a report about a Russian woman who's going to be deported). We watched the programme again later in the week, and it was on again!
I emailed the channel and told them about it, all the details etc - gave them the date the programme was on.
They emailed back saying I must have made some kind of mistake, as the date I gave was a Thursday, and the programme isn't shown on Thursdays. I emailed again and pointed out that the date I gave wasn't a Thursday, but was in fact a Tuesday (one of the days they said the programme is shown). They emailed me back apologetically and said they'd try to find out how it happened, but I haven't heard from them again since.
I don't know if it's still being used on the programme, as shortly after that we moved to a new flat and we can only pick up one TV channel here (and not the channel on which the programme is shown).
I really wish I'd managed to videotape the programme. Having your music played in the background of a Lithuanian news programme is something special indeed.

Thats cool indeed. You should continue writing music , even if you are shit at it and realize it is not going anywhere . Do it cause its fun , something to pass time with , a hobby.

sometimes when you post a track in the 'post a track for me to play on the radio tonight' threads, i will proceed to play the track on the radio.
