Magne was at Soli Brug gallery last night, where he did an artist talk with renowned photographer Morten Krogvold, for a sold-out audience of 100 people.
The two of them also did an artist talk in 2023, where Krogvold interviewed Magne. But last night it was Magne's turn to interview Krogvold.

Yes, I know. I've just been busy lately. Magne is also on a podcast this weekend. Will try to post updates today.
Magne was in Germany this weekend, where he took part in the Oktoberfest celebrations in Munich.

Record Store Day has announced the list of releases for its 2025 Black Friday event, taking place on 28 November.
Among them is "Take On Me - 40th Anniversary Edition", a 12 inch EP on Ruby Red coloured vinyl.
See the tracklist here:

Yeah, I only have the original 1986 vinyl too.
It was reissued on 180g vinyl in 2015, but nothing since. Maybe there will be another edition next year, for the 40th anniversary?
In an interview with Frode Unneland last year, he said that Paul has been working on that solo project for as long as he's known him, which would mean since 1994 😁
Paul is such a perfectionist, and maybe the new songs keep coming and it's difficult to decide what to include on the album.
Admittedly a bit late, but I have now posted some details about the recent Savoy vinyl reissues:

Happy Birthday to Morten Harket, who turns 66 today, September 14th!
Happy Birthday to Paul Waaktaar-Savoy, who turns 64 today, September 6th!

Ouch, 2 tracks missing. Like the Cast In Steel vinyl. That's one of the limitations of vinyl. On the vinyl editions of Lackluster Me and Mountains Of Time they instead shortened several tracks to make them fit. It's good we still have the original CDs.
Hm, I hope it's just some dust that's making it skip.
I'll probably wait until release day and buy them at the record store.
Norwegian singer-songwriter Elvira Nikolaisen released her new album "(Every day I'm) Born Again" digitally this weekend.
It includes a duet with Morten Harket called "I Look to You This Time of Year". The song was briefly available on Elvira's website in 2019, but has now re-appeared on this album.
Really? That's earlier than expected.
The "a-ha – Ranking Highs and Lows" podcast has released another new episode. This time JP and Jesper are joined by musician (and a-ha fan) Sondre Lerche, who presents his own ranking of the 36 best a-ha songs. It's a really fun and interesting conversation. Listen here:
