Rigas is Currently working on the new Parken album which is due in september, but has also found time to record a new single of his own. The A-side track is called Born Not To Run and comes with a smashing Årsta view video. The Release date is set for the 30th of April.

Until then, visit him at home or at his Myspace!

Today we present a brand new artist in the Flora & Fauna family; The Bethlehem Beard Corporation. An album will be released in May and this is your first taste. The song is called You’ll Come Over Soon and we love it. Enjoy!

On a smaller note I’d also like to promote the small live premier for Parken today at Imperiet. Two live songs plus some record playing from Parken and Rigas. See you there!

The Bethlehem Beard Corporation - You’ll Come Over Soon

Album time again! Wow, we are so proud of those eight songs covered in a wonderful hand made paper sleeve. The album is like a warm caress of hard hammering synth carpets and wonderful Marr-ish guitars. Occasionally banal, often disturbing and frequently brilliant. The artwork is designed by Robert Svensson and is with its delicate sense and bright manner made to be a contrast to the darker musical direction.

Get the CD in the Songs I wish web shop or buy the mp3 files in The Swedish Models mp3 shop.

We recommend you to download the first single for free and stream the whole album before you buy it - you’ll probably get two copies….

Adrian Recordings releases a new Dmitry Fyodorov track every 29th of 2008.The second track in Dmitry Fyodorov’s shocking series of bangers 2008 takes us back to the cold war. “1987” is a tribute of the same year. The year when Soviet met Canada in Canada Cup. At this time Soviet hockey players weren’t allowed to play in the NHL, so the Russian players went over to Canada to show the rest of the world how to play a noble game of hockey . Sadly Soviet lost the game, but the game is considered one of the best hockey games every played by some experts. A true showcase of great hockey.

Vapnet’s new album will be released April 9th. It’s ten brand new tracks recorded by Mattias Glavå (also recorded Broder Daniel, Sambassadeur, Håkan Hellström et cetera)

“Vapnet conjugate pop’s structural and instrumental elements to create brightly melodic, lushly orchestrated music that doesn’t let its ambitions or its inventiveness get in the way of setting a perfect mood or having a good time[…]poppy without being twee, moody without being dark, pensive without being precious[…] Vapnet occupy a space somewhere between Swedish dance and Swedish pop, favoring the motion of the former and the bright melodies of the latter.” - Pitchfork media
