Urbanears Medis

Recently I bought a new headset to my phone, as my old pair of A-Jays One+ broke, making one earpiece play at a lower level than the other one. I finally choose the Urbanears Medis, as they weren't the usual ear plug, that always falls out of my left ear. I have been using them for a while now, and in the beginning I wasn't sure that they were any good but after a while I discovered that they were advantageous compared to the One+.

The sound...  Maybe not that great, as they are not the usual in-ear plugs the speakers sit at some (tiny) distance from the ear canal making the bass thinner, but as my main goal was portability I'm pretty much happy if I just can hear the music at all, but overall they don't sound bad. :)

The earpieces use the "EarClick" solution which makes them lock into my ears, and doesn't fall out while moving, which is really great.

Another thing I noticed is that they are not suffering from the horrible cable-noise that all my previous head phones have had, leading up noise through the cable when its moving and touching my body! Now I can have the cable wherever I want (phone in a pocket somewhere) and walk around with just the music in my ears, and not hear the noise every time the cable slams against my clothes.

As they are not plugged into the ear canal, they also let in the sound from the surrounding which I think is good due to security. You should always be aware of your surroundings!


Pros

• Pretty cheap (399SEK)
• Very portable
• No cable noise
• EarClick solution works
• Surrounding awareness 

Cons

• Sound is a bit thin, but works for me

To sum up, for me these headphones are really great! :)

UMK 2016

Last weekend I went to Finland to write and record a new song together with Rasmus and Jeanette. The goal was to enter UMK 2016, the starting point into the Eurovision Song Contest!

Rasmus is my good friend from Studio Blue, and Jeanette was the one who contacted Rasmus and started the song writing project. Rasmus then wanted me to be a part of the project, and I was of course delighted!

We worked really hard and we spent about 50 hours of writing, composing and recording during the 4 days I was there. The deadline was 2015-09-08 at 12:00, but we managed to get the song demo package ready the day before that and got it delivered in time before I went to the airport and back to Sweden!

The song we wrote is called Never Alone, and if we don't make it as far as to the ESC we will continue working on it and probably release it later. Unfortunately we cannot share any sounds yet due to the competition rules.

Were the magic happened

Two tired guys
