Season start of the Playlist with Leo Ajkic

Wednesday, April 12th marked the start of the second round of TONO's podcast Spillelista. Every Wednesday for the next ten weeks, host Guro von Germeten meets a new person from the Norwegian public to talk about the music that shapes their lives.

In the guest chair in the first episode is Leo Ajkic, known as a radio and TV presenter, and for his association with the musical collective NMG/G-huset in Bergen.

It's an episode in the spirit of hip hop. Ajkic is a walking rap encyclopedia, but despite this common denominator, the selection of songs represents a great geographical and cultural breadth.

This is Leo Ajkic's Playlist:

• Mišići – Senidah
• Big Flexa – Costa Titch, C'buda M, Alfa Kat, Banaba Des, Sida, Man T
• Can't take it anymore - Rohat
• CheezNDope – Project Pat, Young Dolph, Key Glock
• Say nothing Gmix – Kamelen, FL3X, Store P, Lars Vaular, A-Laget, Vågard, Girson, Mike T, Jonas V, Mats Dawg.

From the music creators to the music listeners

Songwriter and artist Guro von Germeten resumes his role as podcast host. The 20 episodes that were released in the summer and fall of 2022 will now be followed up with two seasons in 2023: ten episodes in the spring and ten in the fall.

In the first season we met, among others, Ingeborg Heldal, Espen Nakstad, Christer Falck, Ingrid Vik Lysne, Fritz Aanes, Trine Lise Olsen and Minister of Culture Anette Trettebergstuen. They all talked about the music that means the most to them.

It is precisely to highlight the value that music creators add to our lives that TONO creates the Playlist.

– It is a fad for TONO to remind people of the value of music, both economically, culturally and emotionally. Composers and lyricists create the soundtracks to our lives, and this is what we want to explore with this podcast: How listeners receive, use and love the music that composers and lyricists create, says TONO's communications director, Willy Martinsen.
