Up & coming... Beauty & the Beat goes to Sweden!

Homecoming is this weekend... already!
Perhaps the early timing is an attempt at catching party-goers unawares?

Anyways, it's sure to be a noisy weekend.
Now on to more related news.

Sweden has been my new "it" country lately, what with new North American releases from The Knife and El Perro del Mar, and the ever presence of Jens Lekman, Jose Gonzalez, The Sounds, The Concretes, The Cardigans, The Hives and of course ABBA. I will be featuring an all Swedish playlist this coming Monday/Tuesday and the feature label will be Labrador Records.

I highly recommend that you tune in this upcoming Monday/Tuesday 12am-2am !
Feedback on the playlist is always welcome.

Time to tune your ears to a different sound.
