A couple of tunes straight from King Carl XVI Gustaf's own personal Ipod. It must be all the babes stirring up the ridiculous amount of welfare state happy going on in the 2 songs by these Swedish bands. A couple of great tracks to jumpstart your Summer playlist. The Lionhear Brothers \"50 Souls and a Discobowl\" Pacific! \"Sunset Blvd\" GC

Swedish-UK electropop collective Pacific! has released their debut long player Reveries , a collection of soft-spoken but profoundly enjoyable pop delights. Fans of The Softlightes or even Air will really derive some good-hearted fun from Reveries . Hints of some old Southern riffs (see the bridge in "Silent Running") and heavy doses of synths make Reveries a booty-shakin' wonder. Grab a copy of Pacific!'s Reveries Listen to " Hot Lips " ( 4.6/5 ) Listen to " Sunset Blvd " ( 4.6/5 )

It's all over. The Open is now Closed, and what a closure. This years bookings was kind of mediocre, in a compairison with previous years, but what does that matter when the athmosphere is on top? To me it's fantastic to be able to walk around indoors, checking out different acts, talking to artists, talking to total strangers, and just realize that it's all about music. Music is universal and something that everyone has some kind of relationship to, thus always intresting to discuss and also something that brings pepole together. [...]

Desi o buna parte din muzica de dans pare compromisa si lipsita de inspiratie astazi, nimeni nu mai poate nega ca traim intr-o era in care lumea adora sa danseze. Eu recunosc ca mai am din cand in cand tendinta sa o ard si pe muzica dansabila si asa cum vad eu lucrurile this is not a guilty pleasure, it's just me trying to have some fun. Asadar, din cand in cand si doar sambata va voi recomanda de acum incolo cateva melodii din sfera electro, dance-punk, new-wave, disco, house etc. practic din orice gen suficient de dansabil incat [...]
Pacific! is our latest favorite pop act from Sweden (god knows there's a lot!), and actually one of our new favorite pop acts period. Pacfic! describes their music as "electro/surf" on their MySpace, and that's pretty accurate; they definitely have a Beach Boys vibe going, but their sweet, romantic sounds have a definite funky electronic underlying, lots of synth and electronic production. They just released their album "Reveries" this past week in Sweden; it's a really nice album, filled with light, airy pop songs. Hot Lips is a really fun, synthpop record, danceable, but also mellow [...]

Pacific "Sunset Blvd." - Optimism is easy when you feel as though you have opportunities. Then it just seems to fall into place somehow -- as Pacific sing, it's a natural high when you just get it right. And why is it right? Why do you feel so alive? Because you really don't care at all whether or not you fail, but you're in it to win it. "Sunset Blvd." sounds just like this weird emotional balancing act in which the most joyful sensations are felt, but are kept in check by reason, maturity, and patience. [...]

Pacific! - Poolside Bungalow "I want a break tomorrow" I was so excited a few weeks ago when I discovered that Sweden's Pacific were releasing a full length album at the end of this month. They've had brilliant singles so far and I was hoping that they'd put them all on a record, and luckily they have. Reveries is out now on download sites and it's definitely worth your time. I struggled when deciding [...]
Pacific! é mais uma ótima banda da Moshi Moshi Records . Eles são de Gothemburg e em breve lançam seu primeiro disco, "Reveries", com capa assinada pelo ilustrador francês Stephane Manel (assim como os singles e vídeos do duo).

Clayton Hauck (EveryoneisFamous.com) took all the photos posted up today during the Teenagers show at Sonotheque last weekend. It's interesting to think that they would be grouped together so heavily with the genre they fall into, and that their music would be so easily adaptable. The show was good. On another note- MSTRKRFT is coming [...]

People may be starting to tire of music that's coming from Sweden nowadays (that's SO 2006, right? Minus Jens Lekman), but as much as some may roll their eyes of hearing of some "hot new band" from Sweden, you still can't ignore talent when you hear it. Pacific! is one of those bands that you can't ignore - you just know that they'll be going somewhere soon. They have a vocal-harmony-Beach-Boysish touch to their electro-tinged pop songs, and all they've released so far are vinyl EPs (you can't get much more [...]

Vous allez vous dire que je radote à proposer de l'electro-pop Suédoise et vous aurez raison, mais en même temps il est des fixations saines, et quand on aime on ne compte pas. Seul soucis, pas grand chose d'original à dire sur l'excellence de la musique de Pacific! si ce n'est que le nom du groupe m'a rappelé ce pastis sans alcool dont je n'ai jamais bu une goutte, pas fou, mais dont la publicité (réalisée par l'érotomane Just Jaeckin, l'homme derrière "Emanuelle") ne laissait pas indifférent.

It may be romance in the air or whimsy in the water, but there is something about the music made in Gothenburg. Take Pacific! the latest band to emerge from Moshi Moshi's hit machine...

PACIFIC! - SUNSET BLVD http://www.myspace.com/musicpa cific

Pacific! is a electronica duo from Gothenburg who have a wind-swept, west coast kinda vibe. It's no surprise they're named after that warm body of water. The new single, "Sunset Blvd", even has the multi-part, excessively high-pitched, Beach Boy's vocal harmonies. This sound, also taken up in part by Montt Mardie, seems to be sweeping Sweden. Check out "Sunset Blvd." on the band's MySpace page and as well as their new 7" single out on Moshi Moshi below. Runway To Elsewhere MP3 , [...]

pic : Lou Hype Machine commente nos vies sentimentales au jour le jour mieux que les sitcoms de maman . Icebox me laisse toujours aussi froid dans son remix qui surgit en post-it RSS, pourtant le refrain, where my heart used to be finit par cogner sans fin contre les murs de ma chambre froide. Tranquillement, finir son verre, foutre le camp tant qu'il est temps. Pacific! - Runway to elsewhere (Pacific! sur myspace ) [...]
