The following is a copy of their facebook bio which I have translated in google translate
Minimumskravet til musikkonservatoriet i København er en utdannelse innen musikk. Heldigvis oppfylte ikke Martin dette kravet, da han og Fredrik kun har en bachelor som musikklærer. Dette medførte til at bandet som kun skulle være et prosjekt for å prøvespille på konservatoriet fikk en mer permanent status, og fikk navnet Specific Moments.
Med på lasset kom også Ben og Kenny, som en stabil og trygg rytmeseksjon. Denne kombinasjonen av musikere skaper en sjangerforståelse og musikalsk retning som er unik innen bandmusikk. Specific Moments er influert av det positive og dansbare, og har som filosofi at uansett hvor mørke temaer det blir skrevet om, så skal det alltid være en "silver lining".
Translation
The minimum requirement for the music conservatory in Copenhagen is an education in music. Fortunately, Martin did not meet this requirement, as he and Fredrik only have a bachelor's degree as a music teacher. This meant that the band that was only going to be a project to test play at the conservatory got a more permanent status, and got the name Specific Moments. Ben and Kenny came along as well, as a stable and safe rhythm section. This combination of musicians creates a genre , understanding and musical direction that is unique in band music. Specific Moments is influenced by the positive and the danceable, and has as a philosophy that no matter how dark themes are written about, there should always be a "silver lining".
Atonal music is a generalizing term used to define music that seems to lack a clear tonal centre. Nearly all music in the western classical tradition is considered 'tonal': that is, its harmonic structure is primarily triadic and hierarchically organized around a prominent tonal centre

Well its 20 to 4 in the morning and I've just moved all my artists blogs away from my merchandise blog on to this new Artist Blog.
Listening to songs from my heartache and love playlist.
Got my headphones on too (Bluetooth is awesome)
Sunday tomorrow so I'm going to mum's for breakfast, then church.
Church is a major part of my life.
Sunday morning during the worship is when I pen my daretobelieve blog source material. I say source material but the words just form in my head. I just tidy up punctuation and spelling at home the next day.
When things are flowing, punctuation and spelling are the last things I need to think about.
I have 29 blogs already written which are still in draft mode.
So Im ahead of myself when it comes to material.
I plan to read them over some suitable composed music. So thats my next project over the next few months. Not sure how many? As long as it takes I suppose !!
