Eric Saade celebrates new victory - his summer single "Hearts In The Air" has become golden hit in Sweden.
Autumn is full of new plans for Eric is the second part of his latest album will be out very soon, there's no exact release date yet but you can already order signed copy of it.
Though official release of "Hearts In The Air" hasn't got any mixes two Russian DJs - Ivan Martin and Tom Chaos have come up with a brand new mix that sounds pretty epic and utterly infectious. We wish it could be released officially!

Melodifestivalen-winner Eric Saade presents his new album "Saade Vol.1" and brand new video supporting latest single "Hearts In The Air" featuring J-Son.
Album has met hard criticism in Swedish media, it's really difficult to find any positive review about new Eric's album and unfortunately we're not gonna defend this album, we usually don't write negative reviews, we just don't waste our time if something isn't quite interesting for us but as we had to mention new video, here's our opinion about "Saade Vol.1".
Initially idea of the album was quite promising, Swedish pop fans would never refuse new album following Ke$ha meets Robyn concept with milder and more...Swedish sound and still many will be enjoying it. But when you want to become new Ke$ha or Robyn you should realize that it's not nice tunes and modern arrangement that made them international stars. It was their audacity, uniqueness, craziness and wish to make their own trend to be followed. We're not those prudes who put originality to the top, sometimes we can easily enjoy some cheesy secondary pop and if we got Cutfather-penned "Me and My Radio" or disco-flavoured "Killed By A Cop" as new singles we would praise it immediately loading our player with them but in bulk these songs (lacking growth a lot by the way) have completely lost their faces. Is it fail of songs though? Well, it's not the strongest hit-stuff ever written by such amazing songwriters like Jason Gill, Fredrik Kempe, Jörgen Elofsson, Fredrik Thomander but it could sparkle if September or Agnes took it, Eric not having such a stong personality vocally just physically can't lift these songs. Probably "Made Of Pop", "Still Loving It" and "Popular" are the only tracks reminding you that you're listening to the album, not the same long track. "Hearts In The Air" getting to a pack of twin-sisters is completely lost unfortunately. But you can enjoy new video shot for this song and remember that we're gonna get second part of "Saade" that hopefully will be more brave, personal and different.

Eric Saade is back to Sweden after his success at Eurovision and already full of plans for this summer and year in common.
Sure the most important forthcoming event is release of his double album and the first part "Saade Vol.1" will be released already on June 29th. Tracklist is announced and we've already heard the most of its tracks (at least samples). Apart from singles "Still Loving It", "Popular" and new one "Hearts In The Air", Eric has presented also "Timeless", "Killed By A Cop" and "Echo" and due to what we've heard main trend of the album is modern radio-friendly melodic stuff that sounds like definite change from the first album that was compilation of boyband-pop, Kempe-schlagers and other pop-experiments to something more smooth and holding one direction.
Right now as I've mentioned Eric releases new single "Hearts In The Air" co-written by Eric and J-Son with Jason Gill, Robin Fredriksson and Mattias Larsson, much more interesting and modern Swedish dance-pop-track than "Popular" melodically relating to what we could hear in Agnes' or Ola's hits but with its own forming electronic sound.
The most of album tracks were written by the same team, you can check the list on Poster Girl blog where we borrow studio-record of "Hearts In The Air" in high quality.
