Rap & Hook

I don’t understand much of this Swedish track from Kade but it’s pretty special, and a lesson to never underestimate the power of a good hook and chorus when it comes to rap.

Something to get the weekend started! Great remix of Saturday, Monday by Meltage.

This is very exciting. Currently working on her second album with collaborations from producer Jörgen Elofsson (Kelly Clarkson “Stronger”, Britney Spears“Sometimes”), this is looking to be one to watch in 2013. Check out here.

Something Swedish for Monday

One of my favourite Swedish indie pop bands of late have a new video which is nice and happy. It’s not English- but who cares?

Something nice and mellow to wind the weekend down from Gus By Heart. He released his debut EP ‘Rather Be Singing Than Thinking’ on October 10th and this is the second single from it.

I wish this had English lyrics because it’s a beautiful sound. Alas we’ll have to live with the Swedish version, which is stunningly dark and atmospheric. Check out here.
