"Notre jour viendra"

Våldsamt, rödhårigt och Alexandra Dahlström
Ni vet den där kontroversiella MIA-videon "Born free", där rödhåriga jagas och sprängs av militär? Den är regisserad av franske Romain Gavras som nu är aktuell med sin första långfilm (ni lyssnar väl nu, Stockholms filmfestival?) "Notre jour viendra". Gavras, som är son till regissören Costa-Gavras, är onekligen bra på att få till upprörande, våldsamma och otroligt snygga bilder och att döma av teasern så är "Notre jour viendra" inget undantag. Det ska bli kul att se om han får till en hel film, det kan ju vara ett svårt steg att ta, fråga bara Jonas Åkerlund eller Johan Renck. Filmen kallas även för "Redheads", så det rödhåriga temat håller han fast vid. Och enligt imdb så har Alexandra Dahlström en liten roll, som "fille anglaise 3".

Violent, red-haired and Alexandra Dahlström
You know where the controversial MIA video "Born Free", where redheads are hunted and exploded by the military? It is directed by Romain Gavras French is now current with his first feature film (well you listen now, Stockholm International Film Festival?) "Notre-call viendra '. Gavras, who is the son of director Costa-Gavras, is undeniably good at getting to the shocking, violent and incredibly beautiful pictures, and judging by the teaser that is the "Notre-call viendra" no exception. It will be interesting to see if he gets into a whole movie, it may be a difficult step to take, just ask Jonas Akerlund and Johan Renck. The film is also called 'Redheads', so the theme is red-haired, he maintains. And according to imdb so Alexandra Dahlström has a small role, as "fille anglaise 3".

lol That sounds like a really small role!

But I'll still buy it if I can find it.

Well, obviously.

All I'm saying is "could it be?"

2) Is this the same guy appears centre in this photo from the same set?



3) Who is he embracing, the much shorter lady mostly obscured?

Never mind Theodor.
Who's this?


Any resemblance to...


...apart from the awful haircut, I mean.

Alex the singer?

Blog 3rd Sept 2010 about The Bear Quartet.

Blogger: "Actually, I might be wrong, but the only past featuring I can remember with BQ was Alexandra Dahlström on your album Ny Våg. But there are several songs on Monty Python featuring a non BQ member. Why?"

Matti : "On earlier records we've had tons of guests, mostly male for some reason, apart from Alexandra and Karin Dreijer. The (un-)conscious decision we made after our record Eternity Now was to not include any outside people at all. Sibille is the only guest on Monty Python. So that's changed over the years."

Has anyone heard Alex on "Ny Våg" by Bear Quartet?
Does she really sing?
What's she like?

No, she doesn't sing, she talks. It's a spoken voice performance over a musical track by the Bear Quartet. The track is called "Tuna". "Ny Våg" is just the name of the album it appeared on. You don't have that file? If not, I can send it to you via email, it's a mere 1,5 MB. (PM me.)

ALEX AND MUSIC

from Norbert Pek's Blog, it looks like he interviewed her, posted March 3rd 2007: http://peksounds.blogspot.com/2007/03/de-muzieknerd-uit-fucking-ml.html



De muzieknerd uit Fucking Åmål/

(This is a grim Google translation from Dutch)

Alexandra Dahlström plays from March 5 in a few weeks Good Times, but hopefully you know it the magnificent Fucking Åmål. It is just as popular as bored as cute girl with curly blond locks. Who indeed. Someone who wants to protect your best for a bad soap opera (pleonasme!) and Good Times, but it turns a bright 23-year old lady who take care of herself well. Partly thanks to a rather high IQ, because studies and Religious Studies, Literature Studies and its Theoretical Philosophy seemed interesting. Not finished, though. One year ago when she was living in Rome she really wanted to do a social study in Italian, but decided that this is just a step too far, a fist-sized linguistic talent notwithstanding.

So I study Russian, which may also with a Russian mother (and a Swedish father, for clarity). During the interview I had with her before the Revue, she tells about her job she had as a DJ in a talk show. Then it suddenly fun.

Alexandra: "I had such an evening with Russian Russian euro techno. Another night I Smiths and Magnetic Fields and ..

Me: "Are you Smith fan?"

Alexandra: "Of course. I'm an addict. I can quote a quote and if someone says I can not call number.

She says she sometimes runs in clubs in Stockholm and sometimes get notes from people indicating that they are happy. She agrees that people are sometimes phones stop a message in it.

Alexandra: "Definitely. Shows' New Order Blue Monday please. "

Me: "What Smiths running?"

Alexandra: "This Charming Man,

[size=200]There is not a light that never goes out. That song is so sacred to me I prefer to play at home

[size=85]

Hand in Glove can. Of These Things Take Time. I'm in love, I think that's my favorite.

Moments later, it's about Hollywood. She admits that she had a negative bias on the film industry there, but Todd Solondz is nevertheless a rather brilliant director.

Me: "Right, especially Happiness. Belle & Sebastian has created the soundtrack for Storytelling. "

Alexandra: "Yes! I became a fan since 1999. When did you? People who say they have met with Tigermilk lie! Find your Gentle Waves good?

Me: "Yes. Last year I talked Isobel Campbell. You seem quite similar. Cute, sweet. "

Alexandra: "She is cool hey, there's something fragile. And have you met Stuart Murdoch. "

Me: "Yes."

Alexandra: "Ha! I do not mind a journalist. Though they are so bad. Okay, that last album I did not hear. But I loved them! What's that song hey lady put the phone down. Those of the Books EP. That's nice. Then you get these weird 70'ish rock.

Me: "Stay Loose you mean."

Alexandra: "Hmm, yes. Not really fun. "

Me: "You Bright Eyes also do well.

Alexandra: "It depends on my mood, for he is so euphoric and completely black melancholy. Bright Eyes is dangerous for me. If you're in a period in your life that you are sensitive about that part even more severe. I remember I Lifted, or The Story is in the soil pit your ear to the ground for the first time. A friend said: listen very close to here. I remember I was totally sucked. I thought, wow, this is scary. This has never happened. "

She asks if I sound like M83. I urge her to Arcade Fire. She notes that we, gosh, do the same things almost lyrical and asks if I know Antony & The Johnsons. So yes. And whether they find what Coco Rosie. So yes. She shows the names of Ed Harcourt and Camera Obscura fall, says the indie scene in Sweden is less focused on London and New York, but more on the electro in Berlin.

She has a theory: "India [Indie ?] is now leaning more to the seventies, but also against folk. As Sandy Danny, Captain Beefheart and stuff like that. In Stockholm, the scene went from indie bands things like Happy Mondays and Stone Roses to folk. If you listen to Rufus Wainwright, he has a folk adaptation. "

Perhaps only a few weeks watching Good Times.

There is not a light that never goes out. That song is so sacred to me I prefer to play at home

Very sigificant, I think. For the unfamiliar here are the lyrics:

Take me out tonight
where there's music and there's people
who are young and alive
driving in your car
I never never want to go home
because I haven't got one anymore

Take me out tonight
because I want to see people
and I want to see life
driving in your car
oh please don't drop me home
because it's not my home, it's their home
and I'm welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
crashes in to us
to die by your side
is such a heavenly way to die
and if a ten ton truck
kills the both of us
to die by your side
well the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
and in the darkened underpass
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
but then a strange fear gripped me
and I just couldn't ask

Take me out tonight
oh take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
driving in your car
I never never want to go home
because I haven't got one
no, I haven't got one

And if a double-decker bus
crashes in to us
to die by your side
is such a heavenly way to die
and if a ten ton truck
kills the both of us
to die by your side
well the pleasure, the privilege is mine

There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out

Cool interview.

Isn't it though.
I just wish "Google Translate" was a bit better than it pretends to be.

Thanks Snaps.
