Last Lynx, hailing from Stockholm, set fire on parts of the music blogosphere in the beginning of this year with their laidback, soul funk-pop single “Killing Switch”. They followed up on this during Spring with the excellent, 8 track long, EP “Ocean Reels”; full of contagious indie pop, ornamented with crispy electronica, nice grooves and smooth melodies.

The electropop duo Brott och Straff continue with the release of a single each month. Here are two of the lataest ones, “Uppercut” and “Eld i hjärtat.

Another band that has made an awaited comeback this Spring is the duo Club 8 with the new album “Above the City”. Quite pleasant electro pop indeed, represented by the three songs here below, which show some of the span on the record.

I’m trying desperately here to catch up with all the fantastic music I had in mind to present here on Meadowmusic. Here’s a band I haven’t written about before: Syket and their new album “Can You Keep a Secret?”. Help yourself to two great songs from the record.

In 2009 I presented Dr. Sounds here on the blog and since then he’s been quite productive, to say the least. Counting the albums on Spotify I can find at least 11 of them only since 2010, with songs and albums of varying length; “Kobresia” from 2010, for example, contains 60 tracks with several hours of music. If you like to sink into chillout, different electronic sound atmospheres and ambient music, you have quite a gold mine here to find some inspiration from. The latest album is called “Cobresia III”, and the first song here below is taken from there. Below it you’ll find “Bengali” with some asian influences, which can often be found in his music.
