The latest schlager-trip of Eurovision-winner Charlotte Perrelli hasn't become as successful as it was in 2008, 5th place of semifinal that we expected to happen but still very sad about. Though Charlotte's new disco-anthem hasn't gathered enough votes at Melodifestivalen the single has appeared in iTunes-charts of Norway and Finland right after release and now Charlotte's ready for release of her new "The Girl" album that will include 8 new tracks.
Album snippets are already out here and as I did when I first listened to Charlotte's previous album in 2008 I directly in love with it. It feels really fresh and still Charlotte knows her safe area to bring joy to Swedish pop-fans to be paid by their love instead. It's also quite different from almost RedOne-smelling duo with Kate Ryan "Little Braveheart" and another disco-track with Kate's vibes "Dark to the Light" to r'n'b ballad like "Just Not Tonight" and JoJo-sounding "Closing Circles". It's early to judge by 30-seconds snippets but it's right time to get excited!

Roxette's new album "Travelling" is planned for release on March 23th!
It's not that long left to wait and you can already see tracklist and the cover of the album here. Album is going to include 9 new songs, some live favorites of fans and some remade hits.
Should I even say that it's always utterly exciting to get some fresh music from these Swedish pop legends? So let's get excited a bit more. Band will release brand new single "It's Possible" already tomorrow and today we get a sneak peek of it.
The track blends classic rock'n'roll Roxette mood with modern production (how you would imagine Roxette-2012) probably even better than any track on "Charm School". I guess this is what I expected from opening track of "Charm School". It's a bit darker than "She's Got Nothing On (But The Radio)", a bit more mystic but it contains everything you love about Roxette.
You can listen to 90 seconds of "It's Possible" here.
UPDATE: Now you can listen to the full track.

Right after the fourth semifinal of Melodifestivalen Ulrik Munther has re-released his debut album including the track "Soldiers" he participates with and completely new song "Fool".
It's a perfect summer pop-rock follow-up of "Soldiers" becoming natural progression of Ulrik's music he has presented on the album but warmer and happier with still nice post-chorus sing-along "o-o-o" parts.
"Soldiers" is currently in Top-10 on iTunes and Ulrik is definitely in the race for the highest places of MF-final.

New hit from Swedish House Mafia has arrived! Well, not really from Swedish House Mafia but at least from one of its members Sebastian Ingrosso who has joined forces with another fresh Swedish club-star Alesso and real world star Ryan Tedder who has provided vocals for their previously leaked in instrumental version track "Calling".
It's powerful energetic and though it's catchy enough to get stuck from the first listen I'm still glad it has got its vocal "ground".

Play's Fanny was intriguing us with her new solo-stuff during whole last year, presenting two new dark track first and then performing live in Nyhetsmorgon. Now she finally releases debut single "Come To Me" and comparing with previous track it's much more about cold electronic sound and less about vocal expression. Very artistic and special stuff.
