Master Oogway with Henriette Eilertsen - Heading Home - catching up with Rune Grammofon releases, here is a nice extended jam from the live album Happy Village
Back in 2020, Kafé Hærverk, Oslo’s live hotspot for a wide range of jazz and experimental music, invited Master Oogway to do monthly concerts from August to December, bringing along a guest for each occasion. Two had to be moved to 2021 due to Covid restrictions, but the other three were recorded for possible use later. Initially we thought about doing a “best of” from all of the recordings, but after further listening it soon dawned on us that the concert with Henriette was nothing less than magical. To make room for the 45 minute vinyl edition, we had to drop one of the five pieces that were played on the night, and also make two minor edits. Other than that, this is what was played, there are no overdubs or cosmetic treatments. The album was brilliantly mixed in Athletic Sound by Dag Erik Johansen. “Happy Village” finds the band in a more lyrical and exuberant mood than before, in no small part due to Henriette’s beautiful contributions. Simply a brilliant album!
Henriette Eilertsen is a member of Billy Meier and Andreas Røysum Ensemble and part of the fertile and exciting environment around the Motvind label, where she also released her solo debut “Poems For Flute” in 2021.

How I qualified for Gran Fondo Worlds
Part 2: Marcello Bergamo Cup, UCI Gran Fondo Maraton Franja
Final Man 12"LP/CD by CONTAMINATED
Marcello Bergamo Cup, day 1
Team: Glenn and me (should have made a movie with this title by now)
Track: up and down with a long climb at the end
Plan: Dictate the pace, chase down attacks, be aggresive, like in Sjælland
Race
BOOOM, IT IS ON
Chase, chase, chase
Still chasing
Chasing uphill
Chasing downhill
Chasing in kantvind
First half lap chase like a motherfucker
Hmmmm, isn't there a climb at the end of the lap
Last part of the lap: climb
BONK, dropped
Ride another lap to cool down with 2 Danes
Summary
Should not have bridged
Fun facts
I chased the winner and his 3 breakaway buddies, the german winner soloed to victory, dropping everyone
Also, he should totally race in B, TOTALLY.
Also, new max 17km NP record. I HAVE BONKED WITH EXCELLENCE
Simon was also dropped, he was NOT happy
Marcello Bergamo Cup, day 2
Engulfed in Obscurity 12"LP by ENGULFED
Track: flat, with monster kantvind sections (rumors said much tougher than the first day)
Plan: do not attack, stay in the bunch (for 50 minutes according to Glenn), be zen
Race
Stay zen in the klungan for 52 minutes
Elapsed time: 53 minutes. Hello!
Glenn is in the break, so it's defense time
Man, the german is like a ... bouncy spring, he's fucking fast and aggresive
Anyhow, fun fun fun, Glenn is caught, so I give it a go, a couple of times
There is still 2 guys out in front, but whatever
I plan to attack into a small climb, followed by a descent
I squeeze past and BOOOOOM, I LAUNCH LIKE A ROCKET
Don't look back, don't look back
10 seconds
Don't look back
10 more seconds
Look back - I AM GONE
ALONE
YAAAAAAAY
GO GO GO
GO GO GO
I AM GOING
I WISH I WAS ON TV
Right, ok, so ... emmm ... where am I going?
Uh, there is a group up front ... wait, that's not the 2 from our race
hmmm
HMMM
NOT COOL
Look back
I have like 30 second
MOTHERFUCKER
AMAZING
Well, LET'S DO THIS
GO GO GO
GO GO GO
go go go
go go
go
motvind
Ok, I am done
Let's make this graceful
Join the bunch
Plan 2: attack in the other climb
Plan ruined by the confusion caused by passing H50
Anyhow
Plan 3: Bring back the 2 escapees who have like 30s on us
ATTACK
GO
GO HARD
PULL PULL PULL
And we got them
Fuck up entry into beforelast corner
no grip on bars due to shit tape and humidity
Try to move up
Nope
Kinda sprint, but not really
Summary
Need new bartape
Fun facts
Bought new bartapes, orange color and meat pattern
Meat does not look good (once you see it ...), replace with orange ... WIN
Prepared the best carbonara ever according to Glenn
Salt for the Healer by OCULUS
Marcello Bergamo Cup, day 3
Track: kantvindish with a monster climb at the end
Plan: be zen the first lap, survive the climb
Race
Hmm, I have a headache
Hit a pothole so hard headache gets worse
Try to stay in the front of the bunch, but not do too much
suck at staying at the front but not doing too mcuh
Basically, oscillate up and down, chase, moove up, slowly drop, chase, move up, attack, get tired, drop, chase ... you know, oscillate AKA do the Simon
2km to big climb I ACTUALLY AM at the front and there is an attack happening, 4 guys + 2 chasing
Internal monologue: Hmmm, if I bridge, then WE bridge and we are 7 entering into the climb ahead of the bunch so even if I drop I have some buffer
GO GO GO
BRAAAAAAP
I bridge, we bridge
Confusion
We're caught, we slide back
All for nothing
Enter climb, waaay too behind, no buffer
legs numb
Fuck you you head
Make it through the climb, gap opens, stuck behind wrong guy
Get to the top, Glenn 3m just in front of me
Looking good
KANTVIND
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?????
Glenn gets good wheel
I get bad wheel
chase
Chase
CHASE
Hej Simon!
CHASE
CHASE
CHASE
Rejoin by the end of the lap
legs gone
get dropped after every corner
after 5 drops, I decide to call it: I'm dropped
Stop by the car, contemplate life and reality
Almost cry
Summary
I should not have bridged
Road trip
Distance covered: about 1200km
Car's listed top speed: 188kmh
My top speed: 182 kmh
Glenn's top speed: 152 kmh
He was probably the only non-german on the Autobahn that day concerned with fuel consuption
Memorable dialogues: 2
1. Hotel, south of Kassel, Glenn gets a free beer from the nice receptionist girl, we drink it on the terrace.
me: I remember seeing this Canadian movie once, about a bored receptionist at a hotel in the middle of nowhere who starts fucking guests for fun, just 'cos she's bored. Does not end well for her, dark movie.
Glenn: Dude, she's like downstairs!
me: Whaaaat, it was a good movie ...
2. After 1 day of driving, me: Glenn, I will listen to my pod now, I will sit here and listen to my pod, if you need anything, let me know, otherwise, I will be here and listening to my pod.
UCI Gran Fondo Maraton Franja
Track: 157 km, 2 climbs, 1 hard, 1 harder
Plan: do not fall
Race
Start at about position 100+100+100+100 = waaay too back
Consider the first 10km as a criterium
NP first 10KM: waaay too much
Make it to first group with the leaders, 100 riders or so
Avoid crashes
First climb: painful, but manageable
Managed to stay with the lead group
Avoid crashes
Stuck in same position due to crowd and smaller roads
Second climb: very painful but manageable
Lose some places
Descend like a madman, pass people
Small chasing group forms
Some yelling around organizing work
Some more yelling
And some more yelling
And we're finally working together
Kinda
15 min later we catch the group before us
And every kind of collaboration stops
Like, literally
So we chill for last 57km
Well, I chill, the rest are pretty burned out and kinda grumpy
Count the competition: about 7 guys in the same category, so ... just make sure I'm faster
NP last 50km: way too low for a race like this
Plan: attack solo at Merkator once we enter the city, get a kid to come along with me (wait, what's Merkator? Eh, you'll see)
Eventually, get to the main streets in the city
Also, get caught by another group since we were chillin', nahmean?
Pace picks up, some action going on, we're getting close to Merkator
I'm lining up on the side, a dude goes
Ok, he can go, I am waiting, waaait for it, waaaaait for it
THE KID GOES
BOOOM
WAIT WHAT?
He's going, acceleration, we accelerate, he bonks
idle
BOOOM, MIHA GOES
GOOOOO
don't look back
don't look back
look back
YES, I'M AWAY
NOW TO BRIDGE
GO GO GO
GO GO GO
BRIDGING
look back
YAY, GAP INCREASES
wait, not bridging
constant gaps
MUST BRIDGE
MUST CATCH DUDE
MUST DO THIS
MOTVIND
WHAT ... THE ... FUCK
get caught
UUUUURGGGHHHHHH
Stay kinda up front
Start sprint
Jump the roundabout and some other obstacles
Do kinda ok
Summary
Qualified for world championships, yay!
Fun facts
Totally pissed off Hanna when arriving late to ride with her and Glenn
Rode 2 hill intervals (dropped Glenn), 2/3 Valterrunt (dropped Glenn) as training for Franja
Valterrunt included: 1/2 salami and 2 aperol spritz
Also did a fixed castle siege race in Ljubljana, made it into semis (man, I got nothing on those fixed dudes, NOTHING. Fucking MONSTERS)
Get kudos for organizing work from a Tuš guy I rode with.
Miha (not me): Dude, that was Mirko!!! No waaaay. Yeah, totally. ARE YOU KIDDING ME ... lol, I thought you were like BFF or something. No, I had no idea, that's why the hug and back slaps and shit ... clue who he was ...
Turns out tt was not Mirko, was Mirko's clone Vlado...
These help me do what I love, go pay them a visit: Musette 184 RACEDAY
