Joakim Lundell – Under Water (feat. Dotter)
“Living in a Relationship That Is Dangerous and the Process to Dare to Release Despite All the Emotions That Are There”
New Music: Adeena
“A song about anger and disappointment towards a person who has made a fool of themselves by treating you like crap and just playing you, out of nowhere. The person has gone from being the person you thought you knew, to a complete jerk, but you realised that they only can blame themselves because they’re a ”f*** up with an attitude”. It’s an angry song with a touch of darkness, on how you feel after being played by an idiot.”
Pale Honey – Treat You Good
A song that brings back lots of memories of early synth-pop classics by Swedish masters like Robyn and Kleerup, but then turns it all upside down by mixing in a strong indie/ shoegaze vibe.
New Music: VARPU
H3LLO + Apollo Mighty – Talk
Powerful soul vocals by Apollo Mighty glide through this mellow dance production from Swedish outfit H3LLO in perfect harmony.
Kalle J – Ängel
New Music: Boy In Space
“Caroline is that girl that you’re crushing on but is completely out of your league and untouchable. We all knew a Caroline growing up.”
Mapei – Swim
“We have all been in shallow waters and we have all reached the deep end. What I pour out in the song swim is tears. However, the struggle continues. This song is my savior and it helps me to recognise my worth and live the life I deserve to live. So, don’t drown in tears. Swim in them. It feels better. Because sometimes it’s good to cry and be depressed, but not to the point where you want to die. You are important and you have value. Love thyself!”

Noak Hellsing – Good Enough
Watch: FELIX SANDMAN – BOYS WITH EMOTIONS (Live at Melodifestivalen)
This song is on a six-week journey to compete as Sweden’s entry for Eurovision this year. Personally I love the concept, so I would be happy to see it win.
STRØM – Mermaid
Vargas & Lagola – Hurts To Be Hurt
“We try not to set any boundaries for our work. Most songs that we like are based on a similar mindset and construction, and in the end, the most important thing isn’t if they come out as hip hop, pop or rock.”
Debut album ‘The Butterfly Effect’ is out today.
Adam Wallin – SIDELINE.
“SIDELINE. Is about owning your situation and life. Dealing with the practical reality of being completely focused on your vision.”
New Music: Maia Wright
Polished bubblegum Swedish pop, in the shape of a ballad, with a melody that won’t leave you for the rest of the day.
Shylde – Takes Two
“The song is one of my oldest works and has been with me since the beginning. It’s a cinematic and anxious tune with a great kick of confidence in the chorus.”
LOVA – Jealous Of My Friends
“’Jealous Of My Friends’ is the first song that will touch on the subject of love. For five years now, I’ve been avoiding everything that has to do with love. I’ve tricked myself into thinking that I’m better off without it—mostly because of fear. I think it’s fear of depending on someone and them depending on me, knowing that I can lose it at any second. I wrote the song at a time where pretty much all my friends were in relationships. I watched my friends be in love and be the happiest they’ve ever been. Obviously, I was super happy for them, but I also found myself being jealous. I was jealous that they dared to get out there and give love a chance, when I couldn’t. I still don’t know if I’m there yet, but writing about it is definitely a step in the right direction. I hope that this year can be the year when I give a part of me to someone else.”
