I discuss the Swedish popster's beautiful debut album with resolute MOG outsider, The Girlfriend (aka Jill). (We stick on new single Breaking It Up; listen to the track in Comments) The GF Ah, that tells you she’s only a child. It’s like a Road Safety song. Me: But she also sings about murdering people for her lover [on Little Bit]. “I’ll climb a mountain, pull a trigger...” The GF: I don’t think she fully understands what that means. Maybe she stayed up past her b... MORE

Aren't I clever? Did you see what I did there? I blame Charley Rogulewski for this one. I honestly only read the post because she said she was a "hottie." While I disagree, I fuckin' like the song. I knew it was a wrap when I picked my little girl up from day care yesterday and she asks to hear "the song we heard this morning." Skipping through the songs on my latest riding CD, it turns out to be...not T.I., not Ludacris, not Lil' Wayne, but... ... MORE

I can't help it, I love Lykke Li remixes! I haven't heard the original versions yet, which will change when the lass' debut album Youth Novels drops in the US on August 19th. But I've been mesmerized by the numerous remixes I've collected in the meantime. Of course, I've been sharing them with you, so here are the latest 2 to add to the mix: "I'm Good, I'm Gone" Black Kids Remix "I'm Good, I'm Gone" Metronomy Remix Straight mp3s, compliments of Tripwire.

So the little sassy Swedish pixie, Lykke Li, who has the voice of an angel and the temerity of someone far older than her 22 years, released her EP today in the US. Her tour kicks off in Philly tonight and she comes to NY tomorrow and Thursday. I'm gonna be front row, eyes wide- I haven't been so intrigued in a female artist for a while.....(I think Anna also feels the same way?) Anyway, I've posted a song to share "Dance. Dance. Dance." ....do you too feel like it's t... MORE

MOGstars: 9 out of 10 The term "Scandinavian invasion" conjures up images of hirsute men in horned helmets, setting off in their longboats to rape and pillage – yet the latest crop of north European invaders are very different from their Viking forbears. From the feisty Ida Maria to the twee Those Dancing Days, the axe wielding berserkers have given way to indie pop temptresses. Yet it is the demure Lykke Li that has formed the vanguard of this assault, with her debut EP... MORE

Lykke Li's hiccuping voice sounds like a four-year old singing along to the radio. Yet, on debut single Little Bit, the Swede tells a dark and disturbing tale. This is one pop record that's strictly not for the kiddies. Little Bit is very film noir. It touches on obsessive love, sex, and murder. The leading lady is “too proud for love” but has fallen hard despite herself. As she rather earthily puts it: "For you I keep my legs apart/and forget about my tainted heart". ... MORE

One of my favourite pop songs of the year has had the DFA Remix treatment. Yes, Tim Goldsworthy has morphed Swedish pop sex kitten Lykke Li's breakthrough single 'Little Bit' into a nine and a half minute floor filler. Pretty good it is too. Download link below. Lykke Li's debut album Youth Novels is out now. mp3:> Lykke Li: 'Little Bit (Loving Hand Remix)'

There's been a lot of love on MOG for Swedish pop startlet Lykke Li as of late so I'm thinking most of you will be psyched to check this new video for her Youth Novels track "Breaking It Up." It's the (sultry) dopeness.

It seems everyone is ga-ga over Lykke Li lately. That is, everybody but me. I appreciate her music and her voice is darling too; it just isn't my cup of tea. But a new diskJokke remix of her "Everybody But Me" tune popped up today and finally I found the facet of Lykke Li that I love! Her voice is enchanting and haunting at the same time while the music is minimal electronica in a Matmos or Brian Eno kind of way. It's absolutely lovely and weird. Not only can you lis... MORE

Lykke Li, the spritely newcomer from Sweden, has perfectly timed her debut album, Youth Novels, into American culture. Catchy melodies float over sparse and unpredictable production to create music that’s as hip as it is charming. Songs like "Dance dance dance" are sure to be instant classics with the hipster crowd, and luckily, the melody is simple enough that just about any legging and

Slowcoustic is a great new addition to the blogroll with lots of folksy goodness. I've already found some great music I was unaware of on this impressive new blog.

Are you ready for more modest cutesy female vocals over thumping beats and stuttering synth arpeggios? Of course you are. Dada Life transforms the slowly sashaying original into an old school dancefloor storm. It might take a full minute before you recognize those gentle vocals, but the synth riff that drops and the use of the reverb on the vocals that creates a kind of"Pull Away" effect adds some serious velocity.
