New Music: Heart Machine Service
This is the sweetest, loveliest track. I’ve reached a point on this blog where I get so many emails that I seldom read what people put on their emails, and just jump to the links to hear the music. I did the same when I got the email for Heart Machine Service… And the song gripped me to a point where I just wanted to know more about where the sound came from. This is what it said:
End of last year, Sofi Bonde came home to Stockholm after many years in New York and L.A where she was signed to Atlantic Records. After hundreds of songs written and placements on all major tv shows, from Gossip girl to Entourage and hollywood movies, she still couldn’t get her release date.
A few years later it reached a limit and she came home, back to the roots.
Back in Stockholm she immediately teamed up with producer and songwriter Kim Logan (co-founder and producer of Set Fire Run/Dyno) and started the duo “Heart Machine Service”.
To avoid the pit falls of the music business, they created their own dogma and got it down to these five points:
1. do it our way and be in full control..
2. do it with heart.
3. do it well, like a machine
4. share and provide the service…
5. be Heart Machine Service

Do you recognise one of the kids from this band? It’s the one from Malcolm in the Middle. The music’s good- it’s your typical, radio-friendly American pop rock. Easy on the ears. Check out here.

This band have been around since 2003 but I’ve just learnt of them, so they’re new to me! Quirky Danish pop that has a nice epic feel to it. Check out here.

Warning: You’re best watching this at home!
This is such a sexy, slow track that’s very ‘Prince’ heavy- and the video is pretty hot too. Check out here.

Now this is the kind of stuff that makes me happy! What’s not to like with this video? This is Swedish music at it’s very campest, poppiest and finest. Check out here.

So Ive heard lots of amazing things about Berlin. But a current ‘situation’ I have involves Berlin taking something I want away from me, and so I’m a bit mad at Berlin.
This video, however, is wonderful. The band are Swedish, but as the description on their YouTube says, “We let 6 year old Lana introduce our new single ‘Berlin’ to the people of, well, Berlin. This is what happened…”
That doesn’t happen in many places around the world. Check out here.
