I just can't decide what is more amazing about trailer of new Idol season - cosmic idea of trailer showing universal scale of the show, stylish look of public favorites Andreas Carlsson, Anders and Laila Bagge or new Darin's song "Microphone" being soundtrack. I think I buy it all! This short tv-trailer shows jury in a slow motion going out of the Idol-space home on the bridge leading to their spaceship that carries them right to the open space in a search of new-born stars.
Talking about "Microphone" finally it's not a ballad song, few weeks ago when Darin was asked about what is his sweetest memory about music of 90s, he answered that it's Cheiron with all of their brilliant pop-stuff and you definitely can hear Cheiron-influence here, it's a pure energetic pop song with a hard beat, modern arrangement and explosive chorus. The song is written and produced by Darin himself and it's devoted to start of his own way on Idol. Due to Darin's Facebook-page whole song will be released already tomorrow.

Today Darin has arranged pre-listen of his forthcoming album "Lovekiller" being released in a week on 18th August for fans and media. Should I say that everyone seems to be completely satisfied with what they've heard? Due to responses though in common it's a ballad album we'll get some dance songs sounding like tracks from previous album "Flashback", summer acoustic instruments driven tracks and many amazing ballads causing loads of listeners' goosebumps. We've heard already 6 of 10 tracks (not 11 like it was published before, song "Turn It Up" seems to be deleted from official tracklist), gonna hear 7th "Microphone" this Saturday at Sommarkrysset and here is the piece of 8th song "I'll Be Alright" - very touching ballad based on strings, acoustic guitar and Darin's voice, amazing autumn soundtrack!
