Sorry to all our non-Norwegian-speaking friends!
Merlin is Ukas Urørt!
For those who don’t know what Urørt is, it is both a site where bands can share their music with others and also a radio program on NRK P3 (Norwegian National Radio) where the producers of the show play songs that they like from the Urørt site. In addition to this, every week they pick one band that they wish to single out and promote more heavily, and this week this honour was given to us. This includes playing an interview + “Write Riot Right” on the radio every night this week. We are of course stoked about this, as it brings our music to a much greater audience.
You can read the article about us here in Norwegian, and also check out a new press photo on the same site. We will translate the text into English at the next free moment, but for now you can see if you can make sense of the Google translation!
So if you tune in to NRK P3’s Urørt at around 10pm-10:30pm, you can hear us chat away and completely unsuccessfully play our theremin on the air :) Next week, we’ll be playlisted on Urørt in association with the Norwegian Wood concert, so you can hear us then too.
In other news, we have sent two new songs to be mastered at Cuttingroom in Sweden, so hopefully there should be some new music from us the beginning of next week!
We won! Thanks for the votes!
Yesterday we won the competition on Radio Tango and as a result we will be playlisted on a kickass radio channel! We just want to thank everyone who voted and helped us bring our music to the lovers of alternative music in Norway! If you live in Oslo, you can tune in at FM105.8, or simply go to the Radio Tango website to stream live from the net.
Thank you all once again!
Vote for Merlin to be playlisted on Radio Tango!
Hi everybody, great news! We have been picked out as one of five bands in a competition on Radio Tango called “New norwegian music April”. Radio Tango is a really great local rock radio station here in Oslo, and the winner of this competition will be playlisted the whole next month. We really would appreciate if you could spend 20 seconds and follow this link and give us a vote:http://www.radiotango.no/nyhet//ny_norsk_musikk_april_/50512
