Take it to the top of the world
This is one of those songs that makes you think you can take on the world and come out winning. Whether you end up succeeding is another matter, but this is done with two Swedish pop superpowers and is worth having on your iTunes.
New Music: Simian Ghost
Beautifully life-affirming music from a super talented Swedish newbie. So happy to have discovered this. Check out here.
Those cheeky Swedish hiphoppers are back…
I love Ansiktet, even though they bust their vibes in Swedish which can be a bit problematic at times. The video is a bit out there but the song’s pretty awesome.
Mix a bit of Robyn with some Whitney and you get a good start to the week…
Courtesy of one of the most amazing Scandi blogs around, this will be my wake up alarm for the next week. A blend of the finest Robyn and Whitney Houston. Come on peeps, smile… Life’s good!
New Music: Ted Morris
Sounds American right? Well, it isn’t. It’s Swedish. His real name is Ted Mauritz Svensson and his sound moves swiftly round the edges of 70’s americana and Randy Newman-esque singer/songwriter moods. It’s big sounding and heartfelt. Check out here.
First Watch: La Puma ‘Hotter’
Party Swedish Style
This has been around for a really long time in Sweden but I notice I’ve never mentioned it on here. Anyway, enjoy the last Friday of 2011!
Christmas with Niki & The Dove
This is so so so cute! It’s Niki and the Dove covering Nat King Cole’s ‘The Christmas Song’. Whatever you’re doing today, and whoever it’s with- whether you’re happy or sad, worried or relaxed… Merry Christmas.

First Listen: Fibes Oh Fibes! ‘Cerahtonia’
I’ve been waiting for these guys to come out with new music for what seems like a lifetime! Cute and quirky Swedish pop. What’s more exciting is their upcoming album is produced by Miike Snow‘s Pontus Winnberg. Check out here.
New Music: Coco
This lady used to be in a Swedish band called Love Generation who tried to get to this year’s Eurovision through RedOne (the chap that does Lady Gaga’s tracks). They didn’t manage it, and Coco decided to leave and launch her own career. This is the first single. Check out here.
New Music: Beatrice Eli
This is quietly powerful pop that picks you up on the chorus and drops you back down again using some trademark Scandinavian beats. Love it. Check out here.
First Listen: Miike Snow ‘Devils Work’
The Swedish supergroup are back with an epic track and it’s nothing short of flawless.
New Music: Peo De Pitte
Earlier this year, he topped the charts with the trouser-shaking subsonic wobble of ‘Burning Up’ (which enjoyed support from Bloody Beetroots, Plump DJ’s, Silvio Berlusconi and many more). Check out here.
Nights Like Bonita
Mix some Icona Pop with Madonna and you get this fresh sounding bit of naughty-but-nice pop.
