Swedish~ Stereo~

I haven't told you about some last MF-rejects for ages. Since SVT has stopped publishing Top-100 entries lists it has turned difficult to speculate finding some equal songs titles on new Swedish pop-albums. But thanx God some artists and songwriters reveal information and sometimes even songs which were not accepted and it's a positive step to promotion the stuff in our opinion. Much better than leaving track on a shelf when you can find the audience realizing SVT was wrong rejecting it and falling for it while last MF's spirit is still warm.
Today I'd like to tell you about MF on the wait candidate Erika Selin (we all know she'll be there sooner or later, right?).
Lionheart's Marcus Persson (CC&Lee, Zekes, Drifters, Donnez, Baby Alice and mixes for Måns Zelmerlöw and Basshunter), Robbin "Raaban" Söderlund and Irini Michas ("I'm in Love", "Alla", "La noche es para mí") have written a song "Rise" for this year's Melodifestivalen. It was performed by Erika Selin. Unfortunately song wasn't accepted but Markus has published the track and you can listen to it now.
"Rise" is emotional massive r'n'b ballad sort of Linda Pritchard's "Glorious" (that was rejected one year before by the way) performed with all the power and beauty of Erika's fantastic voice. If Ryan Tedder was from Sweden his songs would sound like this. We love it, promise you will also!

Remember I told you about fantastic Jean Love's single "Let's Party" released few months ago?
Then we thought it wasn't right time to release it as this song feels like real summer hit and it could get more buzz in a warm season but now we've got fresh remix from Rabaan and it's even more amazing than original version.
"Let's Party" in this version changes sound from slightly Romanian-breathing dance to massive hands in the air mix that's gonna become something more loveable for Swedish pop fans. Here it is!
