MP3: Karin Ström - Mänsklig

Karin Ström's debut full-length album "En saga om en sten" came out this week, thus completing her transformation from mediocre folkie to electropop queen. That's how I see it anyway. She's come a long way from her humble beginnings as a singer/songwriter on Nettwork Records, living in LA and making a go at the so-called American dream. She had potential to go further down that path, but it didn't work out and I think that's for the best. Besides, Karin Ström is far more interesting as an electronic artist, singing in her native Swedish. Her DIY reinvention makes for a better story, too. The world can always use more smart, indepedent artists like this.
