Music of Sweden

Why are there so many Swedish musicians who conjure up some of the most vivid, rich, and supple music? Is it because of their endeavoring & successful folk culture, or because of their influential instrumental roots? I'm certainly not trying to pinpoint the definite reason, if there even is one. All I know is Sweds make some damn good music.

Nina Kinert

"I am 24 years old. I grew up in a pink house outside Stockholm. I was born on my bigsisters 6th birthday. Russian and Finnish blood run in my veins. My uncle told me recently that we are related to one of the guys in Lordi, but it turned out not to be true, wich was very disappointing.

I have released three albums. My third one is called PETS&FRIENDS. I play music. I write songs. I'm a musician. :::::::::::::::::::::::: But i'm also just a girl, standing infront of a boy, asking him to love her. Just like Julia
Roberts::::::AND SO ON::"

The Killing Radiohead

Remixes tend to be a hit or miss. Some people love em, while others see them as a mockery to an artist's original piece. But honestly, who doesn't love covers? Of course, we have our purists and elitists alike who babble about legitimacy, but substantially there are musicians who take another's to the next level. Tori Amos' cover of smells like teen spirit, for example, is a revolutionary adaption of the song's vibe and lyrical compose. At the end of the day, remixes and covers are the verge of a song's uniqueness, either distorting its beauty, livening its norm, or giving the ears a different idea and feel of its decoupage---and what better art to reinterpret then that of the the infamous Radiohead. For the fans, such covers and remixes are again either a hit or miss; a killing joke if you will...stop bickering, shutup, listen, and decide for yourself.
