I've been meaning to talk about Fredrik for quite some time now, but it kept getting pushed back for one reason or another. Enough! Good music deserves to be heard! Fredrik the person might be better known as a member of The LK, however I find his eponymous act much more interesting. You get many of the same skittering beats and glitchy electronica, but far more of a low-key folk/pop feeling. "1986" actually has a similar melancholy vibe to the recent Robert Svensson (Mixtapes & Cellmates) single "1987" minus the disco beats - perhaps they are referencing the same childhood nostalgia? That's the impression I get anyway. Regardless, it's well-worth hearing as it's easily some of the best crafted electro-acoustic pop I've heard in a long while. Weird enough to always remain interesting, also melodic enough to hold your attention nomatter where your interests lie. Very recommended!
Fredrik - 1986
Nomethod has a new simple + elegant website: http://www.nomethod.se/
Be on the lookout for the debut solo album from Mixtapes & Cellmates frontman Robert Svensson, now confirmed for release on October 1.
Nomethod reports that the solo debut "Young punks are on the never-never" from Mixtapes & Cellmates frontman Robert Svensson will be out in September. Look for a new single around the same time. In other label news, Matts Katt is working on beats for a new international version of the much-praised Adam Tensta album "It's a Tensta thing" and will have his own 12" EP out this fall. As for the eagerly awaited Markus Krunegård 7" "Jag är en vampyr", it's been sent off to get pressed and will be ready for shipping in late April though it's advised to preorder if you want to make sure you get a copy.
