On the Northern hemisphere the longest night of the year have now passed. We can count on longer and brighter days from now on:)
We look forward to a new year with a lot of exciting events and music.
And remember, don’t plan too much and stress about now.
Life is a lot like jazz… it’s best when you improvise.
– George Gershwin

Good news for all vinyl lovers. Vinyl sales in the UK is at an 18-year high. Everyone though that vinyl was dying and Compact Disks was taking over. Now the CD is the format that seem to be dying.
“In the US, vinyl sales increased by 32 per cent in 2013 (Nielsen Soundscan), and in the UK, they increased by 101 per cent in 2013 (BPI).” Source.

There’s been a lot of words written about modern Scandinavian music, mainly because it’s known to be fresh electronic pop that has its own sound. Those words has not been written in High End audio publications previously since the sound quality hasn’t been anywhere near good enough. They might sound good in a club or in headphones but that’s about it. Improve your listening experience with the Best wireless earbuds of this year.
Little Dragon by Marco Van Rijt
Now, things are changing. If you have a listen to Gothenburg band Little Dragon’s latest album ‘Nabuma Rubberband’ you’ll find amazing sounding music with real high quality. Yukimi Nagano‘s voice sound crystal clear agains the deep electronic tones.
Röyksopp Robyn – Do It Again
Norwegian pop duo Röyksopp and Swedish pop artist Robyn have also recently released an EP called ‘Do It Again‘ together that has a rich, detailed and great sounding electronic production.
So, if you’re in to pop but find it hard to discover music that sounds good on your own system you should give these guys a chance. Also, comment if you have any other suggestions that you think would belong here.
If anyone knows Little Dragon you should tell them to pop in considering they’re in Gothenburg as well:) We have Coltrane Supreme 2 set up now in the big Svanå level 3 listening room and ‘Nabuma Rubberband’ sound absolutely amazing.
