The Beautiful Swedes rock in with awesome ‘Nothing Matters’

Posted on 22 August 2020

The Beautiful Swedes break in with their punchy new track called ‘Nothing Matters’.

The Beautiful Swedes is a retro-pop duo based in Sweden. Their music can be described as a new uplifting wind from the past with a contemporary flavor and a great belief in the future.

The duo got to know each other at the age of ten when they wrote their first song together and they have been playing music together since then. Over the years their adventures put them together with many bands and different artist-collaborations which led to extensive touring throughout Europe and the U.S. at famous venues all over the world.

The name comes from Swedish singer Albin Lee Meldau’s unofficial band name Band of Beautiful Swedes.

‘Nothing Matters’ is all about feeling down and that things are hopeless right now. Soon you will get over it however and find that positive light. The Beautiful Swedes impress on this effort and I love how the band flows, they are dynamite together and the catchy riffs makes me happy inside.

The peaceful Sami Simon creates masterpiece of healing on ‘Morning Sun’

Posted on 18 August 2020

Germany-based Sami Simon heals the airwaves with a real gem ‘Morning Sun‘.

Excellent singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Sami Simon creates textured indie folk music with a fondness for lovely yet pained images and deeply personal lyrics. This is an artist that has a voice and sound that makes you a fan very quickly. This is real music that is so rare.

After releasing his debut-EP in 2019 via Amsterdam-based label Revanche Records, Sami left his home city, Berlin, moving to the sunny vineyards of South West Germany. Besides eagerly creating new self-produced songs, Sami Simon works as a music therapist and abstract painter.

With a melody that catches your heart right away, you then hear the crisp vocals of a man who has had a big realization. We are all still alive. Let’s make use of what we have before us no matter the circumstances. Let’s get together as one with that good energy and avoid the negative visuals from a crazy world.

Sami Simon’s  ‘Morning Sun‘ is the best song I’ve heard so far in 2020. The peaceful creation from the soulful singer-songwriter is such a piece of art with so much bad news everywhere.
