Don’t play this video if you’ve just had your dinner!
This is filthy but I love it and it’s sure to go viral quicker than you can say ‘gonorrhea’. It’s by Norwegian duo ‘The Products’. Check out here.

Weekend Warrior
Norwegian pop from Lise Karlsnes.
New Music: Margaret Berger
This is very classy pop from Norway. It won’t be a hit on the radio without a big remix but it’s worth listening to. Check out here.
New Music: Pelifics
Cute Norwegian disco. Check out here.
Free Download: Team Me ‘Show Me’
First Watch: Team Me ‘Show Me’
My favourite Norwegian indie band have debuted a new music video and it’s as cute as the track. So wonderfully uplifting and anthemic.
Free Download: Team Me ‘With My Hands Covering Both of My Eyes I Am Too Scared To Have a Look At You Now’
That really is the title to this free download from Norway’s ‘Team Me‘. I must admit this took me a couple of listens to get in to but I would describe it as indie pop with a breezy vibe that you get out of these Scandinavian bands. Sounds sort of magical in a weird, indescribable way.
MP3: Team Me – With My Hands Covering Both of My Eyes I Am Too Scared to Have a Look At You Now
New Music: The Insider
New Music: Lemâitre
I see this as the new Röyksopp. Sweetly addictive Norwegian electropop. Check out here
New Music: Young Dreams
New Music: Bernhoft
Bernhoft is one of those ‘one-man-band’ types from Oslo who’s able to sound a whole song using his voice. It’s nothing short of amazing when I hear stuff like this. Check out here.
New Music: Frost
Norwegian duo Frost make cool synth-pop with analogue warmth, and songs about life, love and changing the world. ‘The Woods’ is released on October 17th via FrostWorld Recordings. Check out here.
New Music: HandS
This Norwegian pop duo have made a massive splash on the web with this track. It’s like a mix of all the sounds that made Scandinavian music so huge across the world. Absolutely love love love this. Check out here.
New Music: Eric Ness
I think this will be love or hate, but it’s definitely a grower if you give it a chance- the video is really bizarre but I guess it compliments Norwegian Eric Ness’ ragged, jazzy, big-band vibe with a bit of pop on the side. Check out here.
First Listen: Blackroom ‘Control’
I mentioned this Norwegian group some time ago and this is their new single. I don’t think you can find any flaws in this perfect piece or electropop with a big throwback to trip hop.
