Artist: AdoreKhan
> En dag för många år sedan fann Nipu (a.k.a AdoreKhan) musiken. Texterna började skrivas och mixades ihop med tunga beats. Den stil som AdoreKhan har är unik och meningsfull. Han pratar om saker och ting som har en mening och skriver inte låtar bara för att folk ska kunna dansa. Fast Nipu gillar att testa sig fram bland... [+] Read More
Artist: Magnus Carlson
When Weeping Willows took time out after their second album, Endless Night, the singer Magnus Carlson seized the moment and released his solo debut. Sentimentality was still the main element, just as with Weeping Willows. But where the former group gave tribute to the American '50s and '60s, this was European pop and the result was quite...

Artist: Meic Stevens
Meic Stevens is a legend in his native Wales, even as he remains somewhat unknown outside of that country, due chiefly to his insistence on singing in his native Welsh language.

Artist: Jakob Hellman
One record was all it took for Jakob Hellman to be seen as the best pop singer of the '80s and '90s; it was all it took to create the norm by which every pop singer, singing in Swedish, had to be judged, and it was all he released. After playing with some obscure bands in Falun, Hellman released Och Det Stora Havet in 1989, which included the... [+] Read More
Artist: Gerry Mulligan
The most famous and probably greatest jazz baritonist of all time, Gerry Mulligan was a giant. A flexible soloist who was always ready to jam with anyone from Dixielanders to the most advanced boppers, Mulligan brought a somewhat revolutionary light sound to his potentially awkward and brutal horn and played with the speed and dexterity of an...
