Popping Up is our recurring look at new artists making noise on the music landscape. Because, hey — Madonna and Britney were once unknown, too. There must be something in the water over there in Sweden. How else can you explain the profusion of polished electro-pop acts like Robyn , Miike Snow and Ace of Base , who all call Scandinavia's middle country home? (Not to mention all that stylish and affordable prefab Ikea furniture!) So it's not at [...]

Niki & The Dove - 'Instinct' (UK Release: 14 May '12) // Words: Rajan Lakhani Niki & The Dove ’s debut album 'Instinct' is a beguiling collection of songs which sees the duo more than deliver on the hype . Some might complain about the familiarity of the record given many of the tracks have already been released via EPs but that shouldn’t detract from 'Instinct' which should be judged on its own merits. [...]

"The Swedes offered too greedy a bite of their album beforehand, leaving no chance for a tang to come tickle one’s pallet.." Niki and the Dove - Instinct (2012) 6.5/10 Mercury Records You might have already had a taste of the electronic shamanic chants of Nikki and the Dove thanks to their pre-released tracks or remarkable remixes – namely that of Goldroom that pumped up the tribal sounding drums to fit an underground dance floor – and if not you’re about to witness the Nordic full moon eeriness of a musical [...]

Listening to Niki and the Dove is like being caressed by disco-inspired primitive electrogasms while staring into the eyes of an iamamiwhoami-esque Swedish vixen, all while shamelessly gyrating to the beats. This trio is a welcome addition to the waves of beat-heavy electropoppers with ambient, tribal sounds prevailing in their hybrid of nu-disco & bjorkian electropop. Keep your eyes peeled and your ears perked for their upcoming release, INSTINCT , due out May 14th.

Camden Crawl (4-6 May '12) // Words: Saam Das Building on a relatively successful day one of the 2012 Camden Crawl , things got off to less of a joyous start on the Sunday as not one but two passenger emergency alarms on a Northern Line tube scuppered my attempts to catch a low-key Charli XCX performance in the Crawl's media hub. But with plenty of other bands to see over the day, that was only a minor setback. For [...]

This sparkling debut from the future pop duo proves a prolific string of EP releases doesn't always lead to a disappointing full-length.

Os dejo con el mixtape que Nikki & the Dove realizaron de temas de su nuevo álbum "Instinct", por lo que podéis entrever esta será la primera de una serie de mixtapes, así que estad atentos, mientras toca el mixtape #1.

    Hace unos días escuchamos " Hot Summer " la rola con la que empezaría el primer mixtape de éste gran proyecto sueco. Ahora nos presentan todo el mixtape, que incluye nuevas versiones de algunas de sus rolas que ya hemos escuchado y que estarán incluidas en su álbum debut Instinct que sale el próximo 14 de mayo.

The NIKI & THE DOVE are the latest act to jump on the 'mixtape' trend. You heard the MISHA B one that surfaced on Friday ?! Felt bit X-Factory, mash-up week, the extended remix version didn't she. This MIXTAPE #1 is almost as bad, espesh at that 3:47 when no mixing wotsoever is involved. Jumps from one spot to another. Negating the concept that is 'mix'.
