I really loved the songs I heard from John Hillblom a year ago. And I know a lot of you did as well as the post I wrote on his music is one of the most popular on the site. Well Johan is back, sort of. He has changed his name to Johan Hliom . And he has changed his music as well from simple cheery indie pop to challenging, multilayered, and somewhat darker pop. So while there are many changes one thing that hasn't changed is Johan's voice. [...]

En esta edición celebramos la bienvenida del blog español Musikorner , y lamentamos la última participación de nuestros amigos neozelandeses de Counting The Beat .

Felizmente, não há um lobby de criatividade nem do sonho e por isso temos, em Portugal, pessoas a fazer por si e pela sua arte, nos mais diversos pontos do país, acreditando e sem se afogarem no mar da crise. Este mês, viajámos até Trás-os-Montes, mais especificamente a Vila Real, para apresentarmos Emmy Curl (o nome artístico de Catarina Miranda). Aos vinte anos, Emmy Curl é uma das novas artistas que, pelo seu talento como música, compositora e intérprete, mas também pela sua capacidade de criar e gerir uma imagem, posicionando-se num patamar elevado comparativamente com os seus parceiros, destaca-se [...]

Johan Hillblom - Sneak Preview Ingen verkar ha ha tröttnat på Jens Lekman, ännu. Så egentligen behöver vi inte någon som tar hans plats. Å andra sidan minns jag ingen Lekman-låt jag lyssnat på så många gånger som denna. Sen i går. Men det finns mer Lekman i texten än i musiken och även Vapnet. Speciellt Thoméegränd. Fin pop dekorerad i trumpet - som förmodligen är mitt nya favoritinstrument, vilket är Bedroom Eyes fel. När vi nu pratar om fel: vems fel är det egentligen att någon som gör så här bra musik, fortfarande [...]
Full disclosure: I went a little nuts about unknown Swede John Hillblom last Friday on Swedesplease . Usually when that happens I get ignored and the band slips further into oblivion. But this time people are responding so I'm going to repost that Swedesplease post here. Frankly I think Johan should be immediately added to the Glee cast. If you are a fan of the Decemberists, Belle and Sebastian, and/or Antony and the Johnsons you really need to listen to this. ----- [...]
