Free Scandinavian music samplers at Amazon

The Control Group has a 5-song Scandinavian music sampler comp available for free download at Amazon: http://amzn.to/iw9NN9
Not the usual selection of just-Swedes either, this collection has stuff from The Deer Tracks, Figurines, Wildbirds and Peacedrums, El Perro Del Mar and I Was a King. And likewise, by perusing the top free downloads chart, I also see that Friendly Fire has a label comp for download as well: http://amzn.to/lk0RPs
Featured artists on that one include Delay Trees, Oh No Ono, Regina and The Concretes.

Ohaya debut coming via Häpna

Ohaya, the trio of Andreas Söderström (Ass), Johan Berthling (Tape), and Per Eklund -- three artists who came together as a live backing band for El Perro Del Mar, will be releasing their debut album "The state we are in" on May 10 via Häpna.
