THEOZ has grown up now, and the 18-year-old has decided that he will be henceforth known as Theo. Today sees the first release of the artist Theo, with new single ‘Dagar Som Aldrig Tar Slut’. Fans of THEOZ will be pleased to learn that just like the artist moniker hasn’t changed too drastically, nor too has the sound. ‘Dagar Som Aldrig Tar Slut’ isn’t a million miles away from the likes of ‘Mer Av Dig’ – it’s simply moved on from afternoon party with lots of fizzy pop, to a more chilled, evening setting, where the drinks have a different kind of kick to them. He’s lost the Z, but in the proces ..read more

Benjamin Ingrosso has teamed up with German producer Purple Disco Machine, Jamaican artist Shenseea and all-time icon of music Nile Rogers on a fabulous new collab. ‘Honey Boy’ is the sweet fruit of all their labour, released as a single today. It’s dreamy disco-pop with a chorus that bears repeating (and so they do repeat it, a lot!). Fans of Benjamin’s music will be pleased to learn that it’s essentially the more grown up follow-up to what remains one of the best songs of his career to date – ‘Don’t Leave Me Hanging’. He’s at his best when he’s leaning into the utterly funked-up side of his ..read more

He’s had us bopping away for the past two months with his sublime single ‘Hotel Heartache‘, now Icelandic artist Thorsteinn Einarsson is back with an equally impressive follow-up. New release ‘Heat Of The Moment’ has got a supremely catchy chorus for listeners to sink their teeth into (and inevitably not let go of). And the character-filled vocal with which he delivers it, takes the whole thing that extra level higher. He’s having a great 2024 so far – as are his listeners!

Norwegian artist Oda Loves You is out with a self-penned new beaut of a tune, ‘Dirty Little Secret’. Her latest single serves up melancholic Americana with a twist of Scandinavian melody for that extra edge to make it essential. It’s wistful pop that goes the distance and isn’t above inserting a satisfying amount of drama into its gripping story.

Swedish artist Junie is out with a super-hot new tune just in time for the summer to start warming up. Her new single ‘Änglarna’ is a cleverly composed pop song that doubles up nicely as a dance track. Hits you like a tonne of bricks and then is all over before you have any idea what’s just happened to you. Only one thing for it – keep hitting that repeat button.

Sweden might just have a new national anthem on his hands. ‘Sverige’ is the new single from the recently returned duo Samir & Viktor. For 2024, they’ve understandably dunk-a-fied their sound, so as to fit in with what the Swedish streamers of today are listening to on their party playlists. But at its heart – and it’s a big heart – is a summer-ready bop that is unmistakably, quintessentially Samir & Viktor. And we wouldn’t have it any other way.

This summer she’ll release a new EP of songs called ‘Where Flowers Grow’, but ahead of that, Swedish artist ORKID is out with a brand-new single. The similarly floral themed ‘Bed Of Roses’ lives up to its title – it’s a strikingly beautiful piece that catches your attention right away. With a rich production and a decadently disassociated delivery of the vocal, ORKID’s ‘Bed Of Roses’ is something to lie back and luxuriate to.

Norwegian artist Synne Vo has been releasing pop gems for a few years now, but her latest tune ‘Sjå På Oss Nå’ might well be one of her very best yet. A pedal-to-the-medal composition, it plays out with the kind of joyful abandon that places it somewhere between all-time Scandipop faves ‘I Love It’ by Icona Pop and ‘Batman & Robin’ by Cazzi Opeia’. And it’s entirely plausible that this could become an all-time Scandipop fave in the future, itself!

Fresh from their star turn at the final of Söngvakeppnin back in March, Icelandic pop chaps VÆB are out with the follow-up single to ‘Bíómynd‘. But they’ve still got both Söngvakeppnin and the Eurovision Song Contest on their minds – as they’ve sampled the Söngvakeppnin 2006 winner ‘Til Hamingju Ísland’ by Silvia Night, which ended up representing Iceland at the Eurovision Song Contest in Athens under its English translation ‘Congratulations’. With the classic, the boys have taken the backing track and a bit of the song’s title, and composed an endearing new bop about their rise to fame. For V ..read more

(photo: Sophie Barfoed) Danish artist Christopher had a pretty awesome 2023 – starring in the Netflix film A Beautiful Life and providing the tunes for it too. Now, since that incredible career highlight, he’s back with a brand-new single of his own – ‘ONE’. The anthemic song already sounds like a potential Danish radio smash in the making, but wisely, also caters well to the hordes of new fans that will have found him through his music on A Beautiful Life. Christopher understood the assignment. Spotify: The Best New Scandipop  The post SONG: Christopher – ‘ONE’ appeared first on ..read more
