Alfitude favourite Lil Halima returns with a disco edge that I am absolutely mesmerised by. One of Norway’s consistently impressive talents.

Henrik Høven – What Did You Do
EKKO – Tipsy
Just in time for the weekend comes this bouncy banger from Norwegian pop kid EKKO.
“‘Tipsy’ is about making someone else feel better about themselves, by sipping on summer vibes and living in the moment.”
The debut EP ‘Symptoms’ is set for release on September 25th.
Adam Wallin – WASTELAND.
Swedish talent Adam Wallin returns today with a summery release that balances an electro-pop sound with some influences from the 80’s.
New Music: Archi & Pelago
A trio who are crafting some of the most engaging, playful indie pop that I have heard emerge from their native Sweden for some time.
Bathsheba – Hit ‘N’ Run
New Music: Sanna Martinez
Having recently graduated from Musikmakarna (one of Sweden’s biggest music institutions), Sanna Martinez has already begun crafting her name as a talent who’s both a singer and song writer.
This release is an immediately arresting and shimmering blend of Swedish synth and disco. You’ll also hear some influences of Halsey, Zara Larsson and Ariana Grande on the track too, which is pure pop bliss.
New Music: ST. NIKLAS
A rousing blend of Norwegian power pop and synth.
“In one moment you’re in loves’ intoxication, but in the next one you feel that love is a curse. It’s pretty weird, but while looking back on previous relationships even my very best friends couldn’t comfort me. It really makes no sense when I’m looking back on it. Is it because the need of being seen is biggest from that very person that just told you you’re not good enough?”
New Music: Drew Sycamore
Lotte – Belong
Robin Packalen – Benefits
jens – Nocturnal
“‘Nocturnal’ is written about an on-and-off relationship I was involved with, the track can definitely be called self-biographical. To me the song is a great soundtrack to a carefree summer fling.”
mags – elephant in the room
Danish pop starlet mags returns today with another slice of Scandinavian electro pop, full of pulsating synth and catchy hooks.
Miriam – Talk It Out
New Music: Mercedess
Ane Brun – Honey
What would your future self tell you? The Norwegian legend returns with a beautifully introspective piece of indie pop.
New Music: HoddoxX
Lokoy – classic city girl
Two minutes of escapism through this playful Norwegian indie pop that feels bonkers but raw at the same time.
Benjamin Ingrosso – Shampoo
Benjamin Ingrosso’s new release is kitsch defined – it’s very retro and cheesy, but I think the world needs some of that right now.
”Musically, ‘Shampoo’ is inspired by old cuban 70’s music, and is very playful, organic and based on feeling! It’s about how you’re preparing for an upcoming date, but you’re just standing in the shower, thinking about all the things you have to do but you never get to it…”
ohFrank – Millennial
The fun Anglo-Swede duo return today with another slice of playful pop. This time we are treated to a fun and introspective take on being a millennial.
“‘Millennial’ is a sarcastic, yet honest self-portrait of our generation. We sing about nostalgic memories, which are relevant to so many, like old mobile phones and TV channels like Vh1 and MTV. And we want people to dance to it! It has been said many times that my generation is privileged and self-centered. ohFrank embraces that wholeheartedly!”
