Dub Sweden – We’re So Loud
Do you know who Jenny Wilson is? Both Blow Up Doll and Fluxblog has posted songs by her, or you might also have seen her when she did a duet with almighty Robyn a while ago. Well Jenny has a little sister who is one of the members of a band called Dub Sweden. Whose new single ‘We’re So Loud’ is amazing! It’s danceable and melodic electro-pop with a touch of indie. Very good indeed. Dub Sweden formed back in 1999 but didn’t commercially release an album until 2003, which was a bit mediocre, only including one good song. But I’ve heard a couple of songs off the new album and they’ve definitely improved since! Just listen to this song and hear for yourself.

Bonus: Old House – the only good song off the first Dub Sweden-album.

Alice In Videoland – Radiosong
‘Radiosong’ is the third single release from the great Alice In Videoland’s latest album. It’s a heavy electro-anthem with angry lyrics and strong production, like ehm, every other Alice In Videoland-song. If you’re a fan of this song I suggest you buy their brilliant album on this or this site. It includes a couple of real stormers, ‘Emily’ and ‘Stuck On My Vision’ being my favourites.

CTOS Classic: Stakka Bo – Killer (2001)
You might recognize Stakka’s name since they had a world-wide hit back in 1993 with ‘Here We Go’. Here in Sweden they’re a well-known duo, that have released several albums which all have sold respectably well. This song is from their latest, and probably last album “Jr” from 2001, and it’s a great song. I remember listening to it constantly when it was popular since we only had a modem at the time and I didn’t have that many mp3’s. It failed to do well in the charts, peaking at #34, but became a big radio hit. It’s a grower, so give it a few listens and I’m sure you’ll love it. One half of Stakka, called Johan Renck, is now making/directing music videos. Examples of his recent works are ‘Hung Up’ by Madonna and ‘Tripping’ by Robbie Williams.
