Swedish~ Stereo~

Robyn's third pard of trilogy "Body Talk" is finally out in Sweden on previous week together with final compilation "Body Talk" containing 5 songs from every of 3 EPs. So we've logically lost acoustic versions of "Dancing On My Own" and "Hang With Me" and 4 another tracks and we officially miss "Include Me Out" and "Jag Vet En Dejlig Rosa" but still consider final album as real pop-masterpiece that has made many people who even weren't Robyn's fans before follow her career whole year.
Few months ago Robyn presented beautiful acoustic track "Indestructible" with magnificent strings arrangement on previous EP that on "Body talk Pt.3" turned to electropop younger sister of "Dancing On My Own" and "Hang With Me" - light and delicate, maybe not with the same huge hit-potential but still reaching Top-10 in Sweden. However third Robyn's album this year has got some even more exciting thing - "Time Machine" collaboration between Robyn and Swedish biggest export-hitmaker Max Martin mixing some best moments in music of both - fragile sensitivity of Robyn's melodies and magic catchiness of Max Martin's stuff. It's not yet confirmed yet if it's gonna be the next single of Robyn or any of the rest 3 new tracks: "Call Your Girlfriend" - more dynamic and less dramatic version of "Dancing On My Own" with flying huge chorus, "Get Myself Together" - cheerful pop-song with catchy rhythm and "Stars 4-Ever" - colder club-track repetetive but light enough not to be boring. However here's best track of "Body Talk Pt.3" and new enjoyable performance of "Indestructible".

Robyn probably should take awards of the most active Swedish pop-star of 2010, it's difficult not to hear any news about her at around week. However these news were long-awaited. Video for new single "Indestructible" opening road for third third part of trilogy "Body Talk" is released and after a short period of tasting new single I can say it's officialy amazing! Robyn always find a keys and words simple but touching and understood to anyone so her songs turn to be something much more sighnificant and deep than common pop-stuff and the latest single proves it one more time. Video for "Indestructible" turned to be quite erotic thing with loads of sex scenes and Robyn in some sort of artificial veins with different color blood running randomly inside. Quite futuristic and hypnotizing picture.

There are pretty much happening with Robyn constantly this year so I've got a bunch of stuff to tell about.
First of all Robyn performed her first #1 hit in Sweden "Dancing On My Own" at American VMA with Deadmau5, unfortunately it was just around minute cut but still if there's any of European artists who can refuse to get it, please stand up! So here at 6.07 you can watch Robyn performing "Dancing on My Own" in the mix.
Right now before release of the third part of her trilogy "Body Talk" Robyn is presenting her new single "Indestructible", acoustic version of this song was presented on the second part of "Body Talk" so as it was expected it has got electro-arrangement in a style of "Hang With Me" and "Dancing On My Own" but a bit less commercial and sounding more like remix of previous version (in my opinion).

However that's great to get new material from Robyn and soon we're gonna get another 4 new songs on "Body Talk Pt. 3" - "Time Machine", "Call your girlfriend", "Get myself together" and "Stars 4-ever", the rest is 5 songs from the first part and 5 songs from second. Check whole tracklist below and cover above.
And finally you should check fresh lovely performance of early Robyn's hit "Show Me Love" right in the centre of Stockholm at Sergels Torg, it's wonderful how you completely flow into this performance, beautiful!

Finally it has arrived - second part of Swedish pop-wonder Robyn album-trilogy "Body Talk" has leaked and Swedish Stereo's presenting its preview to you right here right now!
Comparing with the first part of "Body Talk" second one seems a little bit poppier but again it's quite original, full of experiments and loads of different styles.
Album starts with electro-pop anthemic "In My Eyes" with a light touch of Kylie's euphoria. "Include Me Out" is like a hello to Robyn of 90s - mature, filtered with electrosound-compressors, maybe even a bit futuristic but still having some great tunes for you. "Hang With Me" sounds like a great follow-up to best Robyn's singles "With Every Heartbeat" and "Dancing On My Own" - Kleerup-sounding, beautiful, heartbreaking dance-track with touching lyrics. "Love Kills" is probably the most clubby track with a dark meditative atmosphere and great dance arrangement. "We Dance To The Beat" sounds like brother of "Don't Fucking Tell Me What To Do" from previous part, repetative electronic track with Robyn's reverbed vocals. "Criminal Intent" and "U Should Know Better" (featuring Snoop Dogg) form hip-hop influenced part of the album though it's still wrapped into synth-sound and electro-samples. And finally just like previous part of "Body Talk" second contains acoustic track "Indestructible" with dramatic track with great melody and amazing strings part. Will it be new single from the third part? I'd dream about it! Check album preview yourself below.

Swedish Stereo is on the way back after small pause with updates caused by unexpected loads of job leaving me totally no free time to speak about so much of interesting stuff that I intended these days. I really hope you're still with me and we're coming back with what (or to be more accurate WHO) I left you with last week. I mean Robyn.
Surprisingly fast Robyn released new video for her forthcoming single "Hang With Me" and the video itself is cut of Robyn's life episodes on tour - performing, signing, spending time with her musicians, recording, playing, well, all of those things artists are about touring, it's very nicely shot by Max Vitali who also directed "Dancing On My Own". Single due to the last information from Robyn's site is planned for 16th August in Scandinavia, 17th August in the US and Canada, 3rd September in Germany, Switzerland and Holland and 5th September in the UK and Australia. Few days ago as well robyn.com revealed tracklist and cover of the second part of "Body Talk" trilogy so you can find it below.

And a little more Robyn!
Just a few hours ago Robyn performed her latest hit "Dancing On My Own" on popular American David Letterman Late show looking as always stunning, charismatic and worth watching every second of performance. It's not the first time when Robyn was invited to this show, two years ago she has already performed there with "Cobrastyle" being supported by Teddybears on the stage. By the way last Robyn's album "Body Talk Pt.1" has already entered Top-100 of albums chart in U.S. (#97) and "Dancing On My Own" reached #3 in Billboard Hot Dance Club chart. In a few days Robyn and Kelis will start their North American All Hearts tour with amazing Dan Black and Far East Movement as supporting acts so let's cross fingers for the first and forthcoming parts of "Body Talk" to finally make a big break through on U.S. market.

Our beloved Poster Girl has just presented best news for today. Robyn's new single was aired on Radio 1 and the song is all kind of amazingness! It sounds like "Handle Me" melodics wrapped into "Dancing On My Own" sound. Great follow-up of the last single and comparing with "Dancing On My Own" this one sounds less tragic but not any less beautiful. The song (surprisingly for me) turned to be cover of Paola Bruna and you can hear original version on MuuMuse blog and convince yourself how far new version went from it. Earlier this year Robyn released acoustic version of this song on the first part of her trilogy "Body Talk Pt. 1" and on September 6th she plans to release new single along with the second part of "Body Talk".

Just a week ago I told you about new Robyn's single "Dancing On My Own" and now video for it is released! The video suits track perfectly, has something common with previous Robyn's videos like "Be Mine" but visually much more interesting with dark shots of dancefloor mass and Robyn in front of the spotlights cameras looking very stylish, beautiful and doing some cool choreography. Well, you'd better check yourself!

After Robyn's comeback with single "Fembot" becoming as spontanous as successful (her performance in Swedish-Norwegian talk show Skavlan has brought a lot of attention to new single and top places in iTunes-charts of both countries) singer's preparing her next release from upcoming EP "Body Talk Pt. 1" - single "Dancing On My Own" (written with Patrik Berger), due to her twitter she shot the video for it last weekend. The single is out on the 13th June but tracks have already leaked and you can find 2 amazing mixes - very atmospheric club Fred Falke's one and another mix made by Buzz Junkies, it turns this beautiful song from meditative electro-pop follower of "With Every Heartbeat" to amazing summer dancefloor anthem.
