Danish rap acts like Sivas and Ukendt Kunstner. Probably not meant for me, but when they play it on the radio – I feel it!

Generally the use of music in Peaky Blinders. But especially the opening of season 3 combined with David Bowies “Lazarus”
● Music you don´t like
Musicals. To hysterical. In general musicians who tend to be hysterical and pretentious, like the Danish act, “Bisse”. He´s just, in my opinion, a wannabe C.V. Jørgensen.
● Best record cover
Jens Unmack “Vejen hjem fra RocknRoll”
● A song that describes your hometown
Arcade Fire “The suburbs” – Reminds me of being underage. Buying beer at the local grocery store (he didn´t ask for ID). Driving on my moped to the party. Good times.

Hurricane #1 “Just another illusion”
● Favourite album and song – 2017
Album: Love Shop “Risiko” – loyal to my few favourite bands, but Love Shop truly deserves it. Keeps evolving. “Risiko”, easily being a top 3 Love Shop album.
