Gnučči has a new song…

So this new Swedish ball of madness known as Gnučči is back with a new song. This is very love/hate, and I’m not sure what I think but I can’t stop listening to it, so I guess I’m a fan.

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

New Music: Stereomaniacs

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.

Take part in the world’s first Twitter-generated music video

So this is a bit unconventional- in every sense of the word. I recieved an email about this up and coming Swedish kid called Ralph Charlie. He has a song out called ‘Douche By Your Side’, which aside from the name is actually a pretty catchy pop track. Anyway, watch the video to see how you can take part. If you want to!

First Watch: Agnes ‘One Last Time’

I haven’t blogged much about Swedish pop superstar Agnes before because I felt everyone else was writing so much about her that there wasn’t any point for another person to start doing it. But when I heard her new single, One Last Time, I just HAD to feature this- it’s so beautiful and is such a departure from her old, usual style.

The track is written by Agnes, Ana Diaz and Jonas Quant. The single is produced by Jonas Quant (Hurts, Leona Lewis, Kylie Minogue, No Doubt). The video is directed by Amir Chamdin (The Cardigans).

First Watch: Coco Morier ‘Ambulance’

Since releasing material earlier this year Coco Morier has gone from strength to strength- and is now signed to INGRID – the artist collective with Lykke Li, Peter, Bjorn & John etc. Check out this new video for the single ‘Ambulance’.
