"Back in the days" of
Sincerely Yours' secretive web lifetime, a rush of blood always went to my head whenever they posted a new track from Air France or jj. Since then things have changed.
Out of the blue, Air France broke paths with their promise of finishing their highly anticipated debut album, and let's just face it: jj'll never have the same mysterious pop veil like they did in back in 2009. However, the inscrutably subtle Swedish pop scene is growing, and the fine pop lovers over at
Cascine have realized that, too. Based in the seemingly ever-sunny capital Stockholm,
Ditt Inre sits nicely next to their Cascine mates-- from the sentimentally sexy
Jensen Sportag to the somewhat brighter-sounding
Southern Shores. Neither did it surprise us that they are a duo of few words: with one foot in the future and one foot in the grave, and a time machine set back to 2008.
En Värld I Brand EP is out via
Cascine on May 29th.
