Educate Your Ears: Tungorna

From the forests of Karlskoga, comes producer, musician, and songwriter Johan Lundgren. With half a lifetime of producing and songwriting behind him, solo debut was never a topic of discussion, until he swapped the long winters of Stockholm for a few years in the Californian sun, where Tungorna came to life. Lundgren describes Tungorna’s sound as “a collage of interesting bits and pieces that don’t necessarily have to be ‘good’. the beauty is in the flaws and is kept together with melodies and a moderately danceable beat.”

Johan describes the change of environment and the limited equipment as a way to challenge himself, “I only had my laptop, a cheap microphone and a small keyboard with me, but, nowadays, that’s all you need.” Sharing this mindset are his fellow collaborators of the audiovisual project ‘iamamiwhoami’, for which Lundgren has had a frequent involvement with in live performances. “With their label, they have formed an inspiring environment, with their music and the world surrounding it, keeping total control, not only of the creative process but also the production, without some guy in a suit intervening.”
