Natten are on their way with a new album called ”Dolce Vita”. As a first taste of the album they have released the single “Vuela Vuela”, along with a music video. If you’ve heard Natten before, you will recognize the special atmosphere in their music as they take us along on late night escapades moving between reality and surrealism, between well-known lands and exotic places and between the visible and the unseen, into the soundscape of Natten.
Elias had a breakthrough in the beginning of this year when he impressed us with his soul voice in the powerful song “Revolution“. Now he’s released his debut EP “Warcry”, an EP which most likely will earn him even more admirers. Here is the new single “Green Eyes” taken from the EP.
I wrote about Zebastian Swartz last year when he released his fine debut single “Me and My Brother”. He has taken his time with the follow-up, but yesterday he released the new single “A Storm”, taken from an upcoming EP he has written together with Per Eklund. And what a marvellous follow-up it is, an energetic, uplifting pop track with country vibes and a lot of colours from the 70’s. Listen for yourself here:
Today Duvchi is releasing his awaited debut album “With the World”. And it was really worth waiting for. Just as much as it is a record with a number of obvious pop hits with sweet melodies, it’s an ambient creation, beautifully framed by some instrumental tracks. Carefully he paints a special, pleasantly melancholic atmostphere, creating his own soundscape of longing, dreams and warm humility. His unique, bright voice is of course something extra and the way he uses it in the production is interesting as well. The vocals can appear close, distanced, dubbed, autotuned, in different registers, every time in a way that fits the song, and still the pieces fit together into a beautiful album image. Here below is a wonderful taste in the shape of the song “Sleep”.
Raindear, aka Rebecca Bergcrantz, has released a couple of more singles since I last wrote about her. The latest one is called “Prison Bed” and was released last month. She continues to grow her sensual blend of western electropop and asian influences, which becomes something quite unique and special. For this song she mentions Japanese traditions as an inspiration, which I can recognize, and I also get the sensation of Indian melodies and rhythms, both in this song and the previous one, “Museum”. Listen for yourself here below.
