From folk pop to electro pop with The Red & Hidden Language, Sequoia, Sveket and Wilderness
The Red & Hidden Language
The trio Pelle Ljungberg, Teddy Skoglund and Lars Jönsson form the core of the folk-psychadelia band The Red & Hidden Language. Last year they released their debut album with songs that bring artists like Nick Drake, Devendra Banhart och CSN&Y to mind. Here are two songs:
Sequoia
Here are a couple of songs from a band/project called Sequoia. Great songs with nice falsetto vocals, rather varying but with a foundation in folk-inspired pop. As they haven’t released anything yet on Spotify and similar services, you can go to their Soundcloud page to hear more songs.
Sveket – “Hollywoodslut”
The duo Sveket are releasing a new single next week, “Hollywoodslut” (“Hollywood endings”), with a surprising electro pop arrangement, quite a distance from the earlier singles with a more traditional sound. The melodramatic retro-schlager vibe in the vocals and the melodies is still there, though, which makes an interesting combination. The single is also first taste of the upcoming debut album “Une vie à vivre”.
Wilderness – “Hold On”
The trio Wilderness follows up on their debut single from last year with the new song “Hold On”. Great dreamy electro pop where they get help from Sabina Wärme this time too. The single is accompanied by a beautiful music video which you can watch here below.
