Unangenehm nervöse Zeiten erfordern angenehm nervöse Musik - neonfarbene Hymnen gegen das Dauergrau, unbeschwerte Statements gegen die tägliche Dosis Abfuck. Paula Carolina hat im Laufe der letzten Monate etliche solcher Hymnen geschrieben - ein ganzes Album voll. Es trägt den griffigen Titel "extra" und konserviert den selbstgeschaffenen Kosmos, in dem Paula Carolina seit 2021 kreativ aufgeblüht und in der Zwischenzeit vom Supportact zur Stilikone avanciert ist. Dieser Kosmos ist längst ein Safe Space geworden - für einen beachtlich breitaufgestellten Kreis an Menschen mit Herz am linken Fleck und unerschöpflich positiver Energie. Zwischen Indie-Pop, Nndw und Future-Punk, Moshpit und Gruppen-Kuscheln, Dorfanekdoten und Großstadtkamellen gelingt es Paula wieder und wieder, zwischen statt über den Dingen zu stehen. Ihre Kunst ist meinungsstark, aber nie spaßbefreit; ist rotzig, aber nie dogmatisch oder gar parolenhaft; ist Mainstream, ohne je in Richtung Mainstream geschielt zu haben; ist laut, ohne zu poltern. Paula-Carolina-Musik lebt von Beobachtungsgabe und Begeisterungsfähigkeit, von assoziativem Gedanken-Ping-Pong, schrillen Ohrwurm-Momenten und erfrischenden Frechheiten.

Kite 'vii' - Seven 7" singles, remastered, with original full-length mixes appearing on vinyl for the first time.

Since surfacing into the Scandinavian synth-pop scene 16 years ago, Nicklas Stenemo and Christian Hutchinson Berg aka Kite have steadily grown from local icons to a global phenomenon, yet until now they’ve never released a full-length studio album. 'vii' breaks the ice, collecting 14 of the duo’s deepest and most dynamic anthems into a stormy saga of immersive, apocalyptic emotion. Sourced from a series of seven 7-inch singles released over the past half-decade, the collection persuasively showcases Kite’s distinctly cinematic strain of Swedish darkwave in all its glory and desolation. Stenemo and Berg had both logged time in other bands before joining forces in the mid-aughts, although their unique chemistry became apparent immediately. After forming in Malmö, Sweden, they soon relocated to Stockholm, further refining their fusion of brooding synths, booming rhythm, and vocal theatrics over a string of celebrated, numbered EPs (named I through VI). Despite their rising profile, Kite then and now have largely refrained from publicity, allowing their music to speak for itself – which it clearly has, as Kite’s live performances have become the stuff of legend, prompting frequent festival invitations, international tours, and limited engagements on prestigious stages (recently at the Royal Swedish Opera, and Dalhalla, the former limestone quarry turned open air amphitheater, to name a few). VII offers a compendium of Kite’s potent recent discography, including collaborations with Blanck Mass, Anna von Hausswolff, and Henric de la Cour. From yearning dystopian pop ("Hand Out The Drugs," "Bowie ‘95"), to widescreen existential balladry ("Tranås/Stenslanda," "Glassy Eyes"), and sleek New Romantica ("Remember Me," "Teenage Bliss"), Kite’s wavelength is one of soaring heights and abysmal depths, anguish and ecstasy, pouring one’s burning, battered heart into the here and now. Their years of visceral commitment and artistic integrity have been hard fought and hard won; it bleeds between the words and melodies in one holy moment after another: "I switch my ways / To seize the day / To face my life / Not fade to gray."

EXCLUSIVE PRE-ORDER EDITION COMES WITH 180 GRAM COLORED VINYL IN A GATEFOLD FOLDER, TURNTABLE SLIPMAT, AND EJÉRCITO DE SALVACIÓN FLAG BANDANA. Spanish indie pop band Love of Lesbian present their new album, three years after their successful album "VEHN", which took them on several tours through Spain, Mexico, the United States, and more Latin American countries, and they were nominated for several Latin Grammys. With "Ejército de Salvación" they have made a record where friendship dominates the album. Featuring several guest artists, making an already giant album bigger, these great new songs represent a refresher for the band's repertoire, and the first preview of the album, "Contradicción" is a major single. The album was produced by the usual Love of Lesbian team, featuring Ricky Falkner, Santos & Fluren.

Every so often an album comes along that, from the very first seconds, fills one with a state of overwhelm and wonder, knowing that one has stumbled upon something truly special. Swedish musician Petter Herbertsson has been steadily recording and releasing albums for over two decades with his group Testbild! (not to mention many other projects under various aliases), but he recorded his so-far career defining statement with Ulrika, an album of almost imperceptible beauty.

Quietly released at the tail end of 2023 by Sweden’s Dilettante Productions in an edition of 199 copies, Ulrika unfolds like a flower in the morning sun, slowly opening and unveiling itself to the world. It’s hard to believe that Herbertsson plays all of the instruments on the album, as it is an especially sumptuous affair, with guitar, vibraphone, all manner of keys (including some especially lovely harpsichord), melodica, vocals and more all intertwining with each other. In someone else’s hands it could easily have come across as stiff and crowded, but here every instrument is given its proper amount of space to breathe, with an organic feeling of warmth that one just wants to sink into.

Although some analogs can be made to ’70s era Robert Wyatt, Brian Wilson’s lush arrangements or Slapp Happy’s charming avant–pop, Herbertsson has done an impeccable job of distilling these influences into his own defined sound. From the production to the compositions, nothing about Ulrika feels modern, the entire affair sounding like it could have been released in 1972 (in the best way possible). Rarely does 21st century music reach the levels of artistic maturity found on Ulrika.
