Morningside Records and Labrador are collaborating on a new venture entitled 'Label Me Lucky' which will be releasing the new Sambassadeur album "Migration" in Denmark on November 5. See the label website for more details, though it doesn't offer any info on future plans: http://www.labelmelucky.net/
The new Sambassadeur album "Migration" is officially confirmed for release on October 24 via Labrador Records.
The new Sambassadeur single "Subtle changes" is now officially available as a free download from the label Labrador: http://www.labrador.se/news.php3?lab=070828.102847
The new Sambassadeur single "Subtle changes" will be officially released on August 29.
There will be a new Sambassadeur album out in early November.
Labrador will release new full-length albums from Irene, The Radio Dept. and Sambassadeur this coming fall in September, October and November respectively.
Sambassadeur's eponymous debut was one of 2005's best records - lovely lazy jangle pop with just a wee bit of electrobeat that managed to be blissfully gentle without crossing the line into annoyingly twee. This EP picks up right where that one left off, with 4 songs that show the band continuing to do what they do best. It's a must for those who enjoyed the first record, and a good taster for those curious about the band.

The Charade have lineage in a number of well regarded Swedish bands of days past, including Happy Deadmen and Red Sleeping Beauty, so they can at least make some claim to innovating this kind of supertwee relaxed music that brings to mind big fluffy clouds, sunny days, cotton candy, and prozac. Like Club 8, Acid House Kings, or Sambassadeur, they have gorgeous etherial female vocals with some male backgrounds (and occassional leads). The Charade also throw in a lot of background harmonies reminiscent of girl groups of the 60s. If that much fluff weren't enough, they've got happy optimistic lyrics about things going right. There's not a trace of darkness to be found. Were there not so many songs that are catchy, pretty, or both, it'd be excruciating. Instead it's a fine gentle pop record with some strong highlights mixed with mediocre filler.s
