Swedish~ Stereo~

Though we've got a pretty awesome introduction to dance-Gravitonas at the project's latest EP "Hyperborea" new collaboration with German Michael Mind Project has become the danciest experience in Gravitonas' career.
Brand new track "Antiheroes" co-written by Gravitonas as well has turned to be a great club-anthem of 2012's trends with a big pop-tune crowned by Swedish House Mafia-smelling choirs in a sing-along chorus.
By the way Gravitonas has just released "Hyperborea Remixes" with a bunch of mixes for "Incredible" and "Borderland" which obviously means "Borderland" is the next single to be promoted. But we'll get back to it next time.

Already hungry for a new Gravitonas' music? It's alright, basically project never makes a big intervals between releases and fans have a right to demand for some more music though EP "Hyperborea" was out just a month ago.
French DJ Guena LG has got the band involved in his new single "Brighter" which is already out in remix that you can listen here or below. The song is a big house-track which isn't anything too unexpected for Gravitonas as we always get a lot of club-mixes of their singles. But it's a house-track including Gravitonas' vocal-line with all the mystery and atmosphere you can't mix up with any other artist, so it's going to be a worthy filler of a pause till the next band's EP.

Few days ago I told you about Gravitonas' "Incredible" maxi-single and today I'd like to share some tracks already getting online. Though you could expect Axento holding Avicii-esque direction guys have moved to Romanian dance-area with "Mr. Saxobeat" trumpets. Soundfactory has delievered dance-remix with heavier than usual electronic sound (probably one of his best last tracks I should say). Andy Harding has made a solid dubstep-version and NORD mix has turned to a probably the most massive club-thing in selection.
You can check snippets and NORD mix below and don't miss full Axento radio-edit here.

Gravitonas' new track "Incredible" premiered this summer during Stockholm Pride was finally released as a lead-single from upcoming "The Hyperborea EP" to be out on October 10th. Tracklisting is already unleashed and will include collaborations with András Kallay Saunders, Rebecca Stella and Rebstar.
Talking about the song, "Incredble" has gone as dancey as Gravitonas can go leading listener through a dramatical BWO-esque verse to a big euphoric chorus. Though visually you get the song as no other previous band's single theoretically it can become a great "Call Your Name" and "Everybody Dance" follow-up which have become project's tickets to radio stations abroad.
Maxi-single has also turned incredible gathering forces of SoundFactory, NORD, Axento and Andy Harding.

Though Stockholm Pride is not event broadcasted on TV some really interesting performances are going online shot by Pride's visitors. So I've decided to collect the most special ones.
Ex-Love Generation - Stockholm Syndrome girls have performed their brand new song "Karma" (or "Karma's A Bitch" in some sources, we don't know what is official title yeat). On the video below choruses go a bit too messy because of hard bass but you can understand what a big step it is from previous girls' pop-singles.
Our favorites Happy Hoes and Da Buzz were singing their newest singles and both were enjoyable to look at.
And finally Gravitonas during full gig have premiered two new songs - "Desert Sky" and the next single "Incredible". Both are available to watch here. And you can listen to the first one below. "Desert Sky" is a great piece of dramatical pop with a funky chorus which is probably doesn't have a lot common with a studio-version but it have a potential to be one of the best Gravitonas' tunes (especially for BWO fans). "Incredible" sounds initially more complicated but turns afterwards to a straight-forward big happy dance chorus.

Two weeks after premiere of new Gravitonas' video "Call Your Name" band is pushing another one for the second best (after "Call Your Name") track from "Black Ceremony" EP - it's a big emotional rock-ballad "The Pain We Love To Hide" saying hello to Finnish mainstream pop-rock bands like HIM and The Rasmus who know how make a good pop-tunes wrapped in a heavy guitar-sound. So it's propably the heaviest Gravitonas' single so far. Video is actually "Call Your Name" with guys singing different lyrics, still very nice grotesque video but nothing new to say about it.

Alexander Bard releases probably the biggest maxi-pack in his discography.
Gravitonas' latest single "Call Your Name" is out and it gets heavy support of a massive mixing gang, you can watch whole tracklisting below.
Our favorites of the bunch is NORD mix gently changing tune but not stealing its dark pop-awesomeness (the most radio-friendly track I think) and Miami Kidz's one - very summerish work containing Avicii-style keys. The pack in common feels very tight and very 2012.

It's a big week for Gravitonas's fans, the band presents a video for the latest single "Call Your Name" that has already got success on the radio in Eastern Europe and finally new EP "Black Ceremony" is out and you can already get a listen below.
Though "Call Your Name" has become surprising turn of band's direction to a club territorry whole EP sounds completely different refflecting the title, it's much darker, slower and rockier. Biggest highlights of "Black Ceremony" is epic rock-ballad "The Pain We Love To Hide" and "Live And Let Go" that sounds like a rock-sister of Robyn's "With Every Heartbeat". Army Of Lovers's fans will also be plesantly surprised finding dance-track "Sacrifice" - remaking chorus of "Crucified" and at the same time sounding quite BWOesque in verses.
In common EP feels like a new era for the band and this era is celebrated with "Black Ceremony".

New Gravitonas year is not going to be any less active as previous one, Alexander Bard has announced that new EP will be out in March and will possibly include 2 or 3 brand new singles.
Not sure if it will be one of them but fresh Gravitonas' track "Call Your Name" has arrived on Russian radio and as "Lucky Star" it's something absolutely unexpected. It's a dance track clearly inspired by Romanian-club sound but still Swedish enough, probably something you can compare with SOJO style but still different in a common concept. Exciting and absolutely enjoyable premiere that you can find here or below!

NEO's brand new album "Reborn" is finally out, it has taken 2 years since the album "Human Frontier" has become artist's big presentation in Sweden right after his performance at Melodifestivalen.
"Reborn" feels like natural progression of NEO's concept including previously released "Underground" and "Toxicated Love", it's dark, theatrical collection of pop with worthy dance follow-ups of "Human Frontier" ("Let Go", "Atomic", "So Touchable") fans undoubtedly will be pleased by and some big heavily electrified ballads like almost Hurts-sounding "Move On" and "Swan Song".
New single "Fighting The Dark" co-written by Gravitonas' Andreas Öhrn is something closer to the second category, it's a big electro-ballad, lacking drama but very spiritual and containing beautiful middle-eight with epic drums and choirs.
You can listen to the full version and buy "Fighting The Dark" here and to do the same with all tracks of "Reborn" here.

Gravitonas has finally presented their newest single "Lucky Star" along with "One Day" from OST "Jag Saknar Dig" in Nyhetsmorgon today.
Guys are not fans of acoustic performances so both tracks were performed in its full studio arrangement. Enjoy!

Weekend comes early on Swedish Stereo, we had no mix nights for ages so here we get a bunch of interesting remixes for some actual releases to talk about.
Adam Rickfors who never dissapoints us with his works has made much more dreamy mix than he use to deliver of the latest Gravitonas' single "Lucky Star" moving a bit in Avicii trend of soft not aggresive radio-friendly sound.
Soundfactory has become part of the team responsible for Man Meadow's comeback with single "Eaten Alive" arriving with a solid schlageristic dose on his new mix.
And finally we get a nice edit of recently unleashed September's "Me & My Microphone" video with probably the best remix of this song from Casado & Daif - explosive and clubby.

Brand new Gravitonas' video for the latest single is out.
If the sound of "Lucky Star" was pretty different with previous band's releases, dark grotesque video brings Mr. Bard's project concept back with its mystical characters and nontrivial images of Alexander and Andreas.
According to Being Blogged interview with Gravitonas track is gonna become theme of movie and game by Fredrik Häréns' book "De Ickesynliga".

New Gravitonas' single "Lucky Star" was premiered at Crimea Music Fest in Ukraine earlier this week, concert was broadcasted and we get a chance to check this track in a good quality right now.
If you think you know what you can expect from Gravitonas you'll be surprised as "Lucky Star" feels absolutely different comparing with previous band's (or any other Bard's projects) works. It's still pop, pop with a huge songwriter's attention to melody, it's much more acoustic then tracks on Gravitonas' earlier EPs, very dreamy but quite dynamic.
I can't directly say if this track will become band's big breakthrough in Sweden (though I really love it) but it sounds like what radio stations adore when it comes to internal artists so after big hit with "Everybody Dance" this song can attach Gravitonas to Russian market very well.
EP "Lucky Star" will be out on September 14th containing mixes from Niklas Pettersson, Adam Rickfors, SoundFactory and many others. Video is on the way and here you can check some pics from shooting.

Gravitonas's debut album is planned to be released already this year around October but before it we've got a bunch of songs guys have delivered to soundtrack of new Swedish movie "Jag Saknar Dig".
Soundtrack compilation consists of three songs from SoFo Records' rock-band AiluCrash ("Together", "Turn The Tide (Cilla Turns)" and "Jag Saknar Dig") which are gonna be released as well at their upcoming album in September and three songs from Gravitonas ("One Day", "You're Killing Me", "I Miss You") which can sound quite unusual for those who can expect them to be follow-ups of dark misterious synth-pop we've got used to. All songs have prevailing acoustic rock-ballad sound, they're pretty light by mood and only Andreas' voice won't let you get a doubt that it's not Gravitonas.
We've started this day with a thought that it's not a single stuff but still quite good and finally we think that "One Day" and "You're Killing Me" are really great songs, unexpected for Gravitonas but if you'll forget about original band's style you'll realize how cool these tracks are on their own. Here we've made a small sampler for you to check.

We don't have loads of possibility to see Gravitonas at local Sweden's folk shows like Allsång på Skansen. But at the same time when band grows its glory with "Everybody Dance" in Russia we can catch their performances at some Russian events.
Thanks to Denis Sokolov we can watch Gravitonas' mini-gig at Universal Music Party in Moscow where guys have performed "Shameless", "Religious" and "Everybody Dance" with Roma Kenga.
Big surprise of the gig was premiered remake of Army Of Lovers' "Crucified", we don't know title yet but hope we'll get its release soon (by the way our Swedish obsession has started when we've heard "Crucified" for the first time!).
UPD: New Gravitonas' track is called "Sacrifice" and according to Alexander it will be released on band's album in October!

New video for the freshest single from Gravitonas and Roma Kenga "Everybody Dance" is here!!!
We wrote about this fantastic song not once and sure put high hopes on it but didn't know what to expect from the final result even with loads of teasers and photos from shooting. So what we've got? Loads of secretaries with fab hair, Roma, Alexander and Andreas as oppressed office workers, leather, lashes, kitsch, where did we see it last time? Ah, right! Army of Lovers! This video feels like Army Of Lovers more than any other video from any other Alexander Bard's project. And we LOVE it!

Do you know what we celebrate today? One year since debut single of Gravitonas "Kites" has seen the light!
Gravitonas has become essential part of life and music interests for many Swedish pop-fans during last year. 10 amazing songs, 2 singles+upcoming "Everybody Dance" and 2 EPs, how much more can Gravitonas give us? I'm sure a lot and everything's just starting.
Let's celebrate this day with Gravitonas' performance of "You Break Me Up" at Bingolotto that they've done earlier this year but it has leaked on youtube only now.
By the way guys have just shot million dollar video for "Everybody Dance" in Moscow and due to Alexander it's gonna be really scandalous work that we'll be able to watch this June. You can check some photos from shooting video here.

Not so long ago I told you about brand new single of Gravitonas and Roma Kenga "Everybody Dance" - result of international collaboration recorded both Moscow and Stockholm studios this winter via Skype communication! As it was announced first country to get release of new single will be Russia and the rest of the world later. Single includes three versions of the song - produced by Roma (we've heard this one before), by Gravitonas and by Adam Rickfors (radio, club and dub version). Now we can check Gravitonas' and Adam Rickfors' (radio and club) versions right here.
Comparing with Kenga's Gravitonas' version is more calm, poppier and disco-version with dramatic tune wrapped in dance-sound reminding BWO-stuff a bit, still very radio-friendly and pack of goodies for Swedish pop-fans. Adam Rickfors' version is massive club-mix with incredibly anthemic start turning to complete club-massacre that we undoubtfully love!
Alexander has also revealed that initially colaboration was planned with Morandi, it hasn't happened but obviously what have come out of their work with Roma really deserves to be proud of and shooting of video of forthcoming hit will be done in Moscow in late April.

One of massive pop-discoveries of last year Gravitonas is ready to hit new markets and keep conquering hearts of new listeners, now trying to break through to East European audience guys have recorded brand new song with Russian popular artist Roma Kenga working as DJ befre and making big career of pop-artist in Russia last few years.
Future hit that they've recorded is called "Everybody Dance", it's dark electro-pop song with strong party spirit sounding on one hand quite recognizable with electro-filtered vocals and melancholic manner of singing but on the other hand it's something completely new, more commercial and melodically different leaving feeling of renewed project's sound and atmosphere.
