Listening to: First Light by Lana Del Rey 🎵

I love it! Great balance between classic Bond soundtrack and Lana vibes. I have a feeling it will be my most played song this month.

Listening to: Lucky Again by Lykke Li 🎵

Love this new single by one of my favorite Swedish artists, and her track ”I Follow Rivers” is still one of my all-time favorite songs.

Listening to: Shoreline by Broder Daniel from Cruel Town 🎵

Trying out the new ”Activity” feature in the @microsocial app for Micro.blog. I love the idea! For this little test I picked the ”Listening” option and a song that’s become part of modern Swedish music history.

Listening to: Insane by Deki Alem 🎵

Great track from the Swedish twin brothers Sammy and Johnny Boakye Bennett. Feels a bit like Connected by Stereo MC’s, with a touch of early Björk in there too.

Listening to: Stand Back by Kite 🎵

The Swedish band Kite is one of my absolute favorite discoveries in recent years. I love both their sound and their lyrics, and I often recognize myself in their words. That sense of recognition is usually what connects me to a song or an artist.

Listening to: The End by Mammoth 🎵

Just discovered this great track after listening to an interesting interview with the man behind Mammoth, Wolfgang Van Halen.

Listening to: Wasted Years by Iron Maiden 🎵

I was in my teens when this song came out. I’d just started playing the drums and thought the drumming on this track was so cool (still do). Later, when I saw them crash a playback performance on German TV, I knew they were the coolest band in the world.

Listening to: Black Cat by Janet Jackson 🎵

My cousin and I used to work as bricklayers for the same company. On our way to work, we’d often blast this cool song in the car.
