Blood Music - Sing A Song Fighter!
Sweden’s finest export since Ikea and Abba…
Lo-fi singer-songwriter stuff with an electronic edge, Blood Music is the alias of Karl-Jonas Winqvist, on solo duty from sweet Swedes, First Floor Power. There are traces of neo-folk oldies like Nick Drake here, and newbies such as José Gonzáles, but Winqvist also has a more playful, pre-playschool, vibe to him. His little-boy-lost wonder and naïve wisdom is contagious. Check, for example, the poppy Hefner-isms of opener Wintercold, or the simple dissection of relationships in ruin on There Is A War... Very few artists could take the words ‘I may be evil, but you are the devil, girl’ and turn them into the most adorable of lines. Utterly delightful in so many weird ways, this little beauty is limited to just 1000 copies worldwide, so get hold of one while you can.
