Minimal Danish indie pop that perfectly balances deep intensity with a sense of fragility.

A Danish indie talent with an incredibly captivating vocal, matched with a sound full of harmonious, yet raw tones of melancholy.
Taken from the debut EP ‘Myself Mispelled’ due on October 16th.

Danish pop starlet mags returns today with another slice of Scandinavian electro pop, full of pulsating synth and catchy hooks.

“The recent weeks and months of 2020, made us think about marginalised communities and people who are deprived of not having access to the simpler things in life that we all take for granted. We wanted the video for ’SOS’ to take us all to this place of simplicity and happiness”.
First drop of new album ‘Garden’ is set for release on June 19, 2020 on Copenhagen Records.

There was zero doubt in my mind that this Danish talent was going to be huge, and it’s so great to see it come to reality; he’s recently hit 12 millions streams on Spotify with ‘Beautiful Scars’.
“I hung out with the wrong people and did a lot of things I regret. I literally lived my life on the edge at the age of 13 and ‘Beautiful Scars’ is me learning to deal and live with my flaws.”

You hear a band every so often and you can tell from the start that there’s something extra special about their energy. That’s the sense I get with this Danish indie pop outfit. It’s hard to describe how I feel when I hear this song, it’s just a very unique experience.

Sharing a title from H.C. Andersen’s famous novel, this track is a gracefully composed yet subtle attack on an ex.
Everything about the song is finessed, and makes me so excited to see what comes next from Kinck.

Off Bloom continue to surprise me with their releases. On ‘Mona Lisa’ we get treated to smooth indie vibes that carry just the right tempo to get you shuffling around.

“‘Never Lie’ is about growing but not growing up. To me it’s the soundtrack to a reckless summer night out and about, ending in a loud and dark nightclub dancing into the sunset.”

A very cute release from rising Danish talent Nicklas Sahl, who is back today with a song that sums up the helplessness you experience from missing someone you like.
“When the loneliness hits you and you get dragged into the illusion of missing the girl, even though you know deep inside that it’s not rational. The classic situation where you are standing in a bar, sending her a text, knowing that you will regret it at the very next moment. In the song, I walk the line and go out and scream her name towards the window frame and wake up all the neighbours. In real life, I go to the studio and write a song about doing it instead. It is easier to tell the story and yell it out from the speakers than out in the real world.”
Taken from the forthcoming album, which is due by end of summer.

Track of the week. A blend of indie, soul and RnB that’s been crafted together in a way that transcends any expectation you would have of how it could sound, and created something genuinely new to experience.

This Danish trio never cease to surprise me with their releases – I’ve lost count of how many genre’s they have experimented with in the last few years.
I love it in all honesty; I wish more pop bands were this fearless. Here we are treated to a slice of indie pop, blended with some subtle reggae tones.
