Something for a Tuesday night…

Im really enjoying this laid back, dreamy remix by Klas Granström of one of 2012’s biggest Swedish tracks by Patrizia.

Swedish men on horses…

It might be your thing. Or not. Swedish super-duo Ansiktet just keep making the weirdest videos to their tracks but I love them. Anyway, see if you like it.

First Watch: Johan Reinhold ‘Tears From The Start’

If you have to watch just one music video this week, make it this one. I am a huge fan of Johan Reinhold, and this debut video shows off one of the most stunning tracks to come out of 2012. Epic is not a word strong enough to describe this. Filmed at location in an abandoned boiler room to the infamous Swedish mental institution “S:t Jörgen Hospital” that was closed down almost 20 years ago.

Johan Reinhold is back with the release of his debut-EP “Tears From The Start” consisting of 4 brand new songs with his signature gloomy-pop-sound. The single with the same name is currently making its way to the Swedish charts and is on heavy rotation on Sweden’s biggest National Radio station, “P3”. The EP is out now- check it out here.

First Watch: Mary N’diaye ‘Big Dreamer’

Massive pop track from Sweden courtesy of Mary N’Diaye. I can see this crossing over to the UK.

New Music: Karl X Johan

Track of the week. Atmospheric, sexy and sublime from this Stockholm duo. Check out here.

Alina Devecerski

I love Alina Devecerski– she’s got a massive following all across Scandinavia in large thanks to this stomper of a track, but she’s kept her records sharp since. Her album comes out November 19th.

First Listen: Rebel Rebel ‘Project Runway’

Dreamy, synthy single from Sweden’s new disco pop outfit Rebel Rebel.

New Music: Lizette

I’ll be honest- it took me some time to get into this but once you give it a chance it’s pretty great. There’s a big underground  home-made 90’s rave music influence running through this sound. Check out here.

New Music: Nadia Nair

Epic, brilliant new electropop with a serious edge from Sweden, and deservedly artist of the week. I just want to crank this up on my speakers and feel the full force of this track’s enormous sound. Can’t wait to hear more. Check out here.

First Listen: Soso ‘The Girl And You’

This is so different and brilliant, I just have to share it with you. Swedish Soso is back with a new track that is indescribably quirky and cool at the same time.

First Listen: Icona Pop ‘Good For You’

New music from Icona Pop! How can you not love these two cute Swedes? Anyway, Iconic EP is out now.

Two of Sweden’s brightest newcomers remix one of my favourite tracks of the year…

You know, it’s Friday and I need a bit of a lift. It’s been a tough week for me personally so there’s nothing better than hearing a couple of two very different, but very brilliant remixes by Lucas Nord and Milano Sun (both Alfitude favourites). The track is called ‘Cerahtonia’ and is the new single by Fibes, Oh Fibes!

Stay gold

Swedish producers Staygold have come up with the quirkiest piece of music you’re likely to hear all week. It’s a little bit addictive though- don’t you think?
