A sample tune from the upcoming label showcase LP, due out May 16. Side A will feature exclusive cuts from the label's electronic roster with acts such as Daniel Savio, Rigas den Andre and so on while the flip will reflect their label's more acoustic side with artists like Sjöarna, Siri Karlsson and The Bethlehem Beard Corporation.
Skweeelicious talks to Daniel Savio, not only one of the skweee genre's founders but also the man who coined the term: http://skweee.com/?p=22
2009, the year of skweee? Wait and see...
Look for Daniel Savio's debut solo LP on Flogsta Danshall in late January/early February. This will be the skweee label's very first full-length release. In other news, check out new 7"s from both Limonious and Mangrove out now.
Check out Assid's new video for the single "When your baba is black" (scroll down) along with a ton of remixes from artists such as Familjen, Daniel Savio and many more: http://www.myspace.com/assidmusic
Daniel Savio may be working with Service nowadays under his Kool Dj Dust alias, but I know him best as one of Sweden's leading skweee artists under his regular nomenclature. In fact, he's the dude credited with giving the skweee genre its name, so it's kinda fitting that his contribution of "2000 and great" to "Museum of future sound vol. 2" is one of the best tracks on there. On the other hand, it's kinda hard to pick favorites when every single one of them is so damn good. All those squiggly basslines, those squawks and squeaks - it's impossible to resist. A memorable melody line is almost superfluous, but it's not like I'm gonna turn it down, y'know? In a genre where it's more important to get bodies moving, any additional songwriting touches put it over the edge. Listen for that dark and bubbly breakdown in the middle and you'll hear what I mean. Like the title of the comp says, this is the sound of the future. I seriously cannot get enough.
Service's 2nd single as a coop comes from Kool Dj Dust aka Daniel Savio, a name you might recognize from the skweee scene or maybe Hundarna Från Soder. Stream his new single "The quest" here: http://srvc.se/catalog/item.php?catno=SRVC002
