First Watch: Alina Devecerski ‘Jag svär’

 

This lady has become pop royalty in Scandinavia within a matter of months. This follow-up single isn’t as catchy as her debut, but still packs a punch.

Paaniq!

This is the new single from Swedish electro newcomers Paaniq, featuring Rhianna Kenny. There’s a video to accompany this as well but I won’t lie to you- it creeped me out.

First Listen: Icona Pop ‘We Got The World’

Another new electropop gem from those cheeky Swedes.

One Trick Pony

I don’t think there’s many people who are more mental than Linkoban coming out of the Danish music scene right now… This track is nuts.

First Listen: Steed Lord ‘Secret Love’

A nice slice of disco from those crazy Icelandic party monsters.

First Listen: Josefina Stanner ‘Clock Stands Still’

This might be the happiest bit of indie you might hear all week. It’s the new single from Swedish indie pop newcomer Josefina Sanner.

New Music: George Vector

Tuesday nights are always such a drag. So have some fresh new Swedish house from a chap called George Vector to cheer you up, with Deborah Cox doing vocals on a track that seems to be having a bit of a resurgence of late. Good stuff. Check out here.

First Listen: Frida Sundemo ‘Indigo’

Frida Sundemo is one of my favourite Scandinavian artists, period. And yet she’s still so new I don’t know anyone to share this love of her with. Anyway, it looks like things are finally picking up for this talented Swede as this new track sounds super polished and ready for global domination. About time.

The most wonderful reworking of a Whitney Houston song you’ll ever hear…

This was done by Postiljonen, a Swedish outfit who make some really dreamy synth gems.

Free Download: Husky Rescue ‘Deep Forest Green’

Husky Rescue tend to make electronic tracks that are so perfect for the winter weather. So enjoy this slice of  blissful wintery warmth.

New Music: Mila

This must be the week for Swedish dark electro belters: here’s another one from newcomer Mila. No links as yet.

New Music: Lukas Graham

 

A big sound from a band who are emerging rapidly in Denmark, mixing soul with pop. Check out here.

Elias Sahlin ‘Windows (Part 1)’

Following on from first being featured back in September, enjoy this stripped back piano version of Windows (Part 1) by Swedish gospel newcomer Elias Sahlin.

Something for a Tuesday night…

Im really enjoying this laid back, dreamy remix by Klas Granström of one of 2012’s biggest Swedish tracks by Patrizia.
