Competition!

Christmas is upon us! To celebrate this, we have arranged a little competition.
In order to compete you need to play a little game:

Instructions: Santa is back from Saturn. He's greeted by horrible news. The evil and bitter 50 cent has stolen all of Introduction's cds.
Help Santa take them back before the time runs out.

At the end of the game there's a little riddle attached to Santa's sleigh. Solve the riddle and mail the answer plus your address to santa@santarecords.se. The first 100 to solve the riddle will participate in a lottery where cds are given away. But be aware! 50 cent ain't going down without a fight, he's out to get you!

As soon as the 100th email arrives we will notify that the competition is over. May Santa be with you!

Introduction has been on a break :), meanwhile enjoy a song from Dungen's new album!

The summer has been intense here in Sweden and some of us have had a short break for the summer, abroad and in Sweden. Now the fall is at hand, and Introduction is back! Who knows what the fall will bring. We're excited. Meanwhile, you can listen to this great song "Marken låg stilla" from the awesomest and greatest rock band, Dungen's new album "Skit i allt" which will be out September 1:st. If you like us you'll probably like Dungen. We all look so much forward to that. Happy listening.

Overdue release party!

Den 12:e Maj har vi en "aningen" för sen releasefest på den mäktiga baren Frankie's bar vid fridhemsplan. Den ligger längst ner i källaren på Biljardpalatset. Det är en onsdag före röd dag, så det går helt utmärkt att dricka några öl eller två :) Vi kommer självklart även spela live! Kom för fasen!

Återkommer med exakt tid. Här är det!
Det är inget inträde, så kom!!

English:

We'll post the exact time later. Here it is!

Respons!

"I ett bergrum vid Midsommarkransen i Stockholm har killarna i Introduction samlat på sig en mängd instrument, pedaler och en bandspelare. Missionen är att sätta samman så många proggiga och svängiga låtar som möjligt verkar det som. Och det låter helt sagolikt. Atmosfäriskt och ytterst underbart. Plattan heter Santa sets sail for Saturn."
