Norway’s one of the most interesting and enjoyable musicians, Ørjan Nilsen just dropped a new single called “Samhain”. Based in Kirkenes, where is only 35 km far from Finnish border and 10 km far from Russian border, is a very interesting town.

Cubus, have all the essentials and cool clothes too.

Just looking outside, standing on my balcony, or on a little hilltop close to my house, watching the stars through my telescope.
