Swedish Music - NEW MUSIC

New Music: VAZ

Dark, haunting pop from this Swedish sister duo. Check out here.

First Watch: Loreen ‘Euphoria’

Winner of this Eurovision- and finally with a proper, official video.

Cheesy Swedish pop o’clock

This is so damn catchy, and I can tell as many of you will hate this as you will love it, but who cares. Le Kid are as pop as they come.

New Music: Ask Embla

I’m not sure why I like this, but I do. There’s a sadness to it but it’s still a bit fun. Check out here.

New Music: Alterworks

This sounds a bit Kylie circa her ‘Fever‘ era, which is not a bad thing. Uplifting clubby sound. Check out here.

Sticky Stockholm

A couple of weird, infectiously happy tracks by Sticky Stockholm to start the weekend!

Free Download: Faye ‘Water Against The Rocks (Dreamtrak Diamond Sound Remix)’

My favourite track of the month now has a good remix. And it’s free. She’s playing in London tonight at Hoxton Square Bar+Grill, I’m hoping to go. Enjoy!

First Listen: Andreas Moe ‘Collecting Sunlight’

There’s probably a reason why we have bad weather in London so far this summer- it’s because this dude is stealing all the rays and singing about it. One of my favourite up and comers from Sweden, this is the new video from Andreas Moe.

New Music: Dida

Swedish hip hop. Check out here.

First Watch: Miriam Bryant ‘Finders Keepers’

I absolutely love this song by Miriam Bryant. It’s so raw and big and epic. If you do just one thing today, share this link with everyone you know because this is one piece of talent that just has to eplode!

New Music: The Royal Concept

Catchy Swedish electro/ indie/ pop sound. It’s nice. Check out here.

A very good Adele reworking. Very good indeed.

This new video from Dante; it’s pretty brilliant. Those Swedes…

New Music: Storbritannien

This is a track by Swedish group Storbritannien (i.e. ‘Britain’.. in English…) which is sung in Swedish but is so sinister and tasty that I just have to feature it. Check out here.

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.

Start the week with a boom

Hello, happy Monday. Isn’t it great to be back at work…? Anyway, I heard this yesterday and it cheered me up so I figure what better time than now to give this is a spin? It’s by Swedish indie-pop princess Miss Li.

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
