Swedish~ Stereo~

Rasmus Faber and Beldina. Recently I told you about collaboration of these talented people talking about latest Beldina's EP "Best Kept Secret" where Rasmus has produced very nice track "Hunt You Down" that we really loved.
This time Beldina guests Rasmus' new single providing vocals for new single "Good Times Come Back" that was already released in Japan and is planned to become available for other regions soon.
"Good Times Come Back" is clubby chill-out track with that relaxed atmosphere you can easily recognize in Rasmus' music but it's much more disco-flavoured than his previous tracks in this key. Beldina's amazing voice definitely brings loads of life and some light summerish energy into this song. Fantastic energy charge for this weekend!

It feels like Sweden didn't receive new dance-discoveries, artists with unique and flexible voices able to sing telephone book and make every key and every sound touching and breathtaking... months? Years? However quite long and now seems country gets such diamond.
Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce you to new amazing artist - Beldina!
Beldina Malaika is 22-years-old soul/jazz singer with incredibly beautiful velvet voice who has already managed to work with artists like Billy Paul, Stevie Wonder, Timbuktu, Lazee, Mando Diao and many others, she has recommended her name in Swedish hip-hop music as singer and songwriter and now she starts her solo-career with some huge internationally successful DJs from Sweden already interested in working on music stuff for her and first Beldina's single "Here We Go" from forthcoming EP "Best Kept Secret" is a result of her work with Ali Payami and it's a stunning club-track opening Beldina's voice as some magic and fragile flower twining round you and hypnotizing. In December Beldina was invited to Musikhjälpen to perform live and she presented "Here We Go" in acoustic so you can watch it now below with her brilliant cover of "Hang With Me" and another new track "Hunt you down" that she has recorded with another huge club name - Rasmus Faber.

Linda Sundblad is very active this year after relase of her long-awaited album "Manifest", she took part in Love Stockholm 2010 festival, was invited as host and script-writer of Rockbjörnen 2010, worked as songwriter (for example you can find her song "Good Stuff" on Elin Lanto's album "Love Made Me Do It") and currently she's preparing for trip to Afghanistan where she will be performing for Swedish soldiers (Linda has been already tripping to Kosovo before and decided that she has to make it again), now she's going through tough training and you can see a lot of photos on her site.
If you remember year before Linda was featured on 2 tracks of Rasmus Faber's album "Where We Belong" - "Everything Is Alright" and "Always". Guys keep working together and we get new track "Stay With Me" made by Rasmus and Japanese violinist Chieko Kinbara that's going to be released on Rasmus' new compillation "So Far 3", it's pleasant chill-out summerish track with beautiful strings part, latin percussion and relaxing mood.

As well you can download new lounge-salsa version of Linda's "To All My Girls" made by Rasmus with Thomas Eby on her site for free.

Last year Linda performed with Rasmus at Billboard Live in Tokyo both their previous tracks "Everything Is Alright" and "Always", very nice live versions that I really recommend you.
