- Swim Sweet Swedish on P3
Sat, 27 Aug 2005 13:00:00 GMT Author: petersen.jens@gmail.com
Last Wednesday MeroMero&More's favourite Kanazawa label Rallye released an excellent snapshot of today's Swedish semi-alternative music scene. I talked to RallyeÃÂs Fuminori Chikakoshi, the Swedish coordinator Kristofer Lecander, aka Panache, and the participating Stockholmers of Lo-Fi-Fnk. The feature was aired last Wednesday by P3 Musikjournalen, and you can listen to it by clicking the "Onsdag" link on their homepage. That is until Wednesday August 31. It starts at around 34 minutes into the show and lasts for about 14 minutes.
If this makes you wanna hear more about Rallye, check out our feature show on the label here.
Read also the great article on Swim Sweet Swedish in the Swedish morning paper Sydsvenskan by Marcus Joons. It's not published on the web yet, but it should be up here any time soon I hope. - Alan Braxe on P3

Earlier this summer I went to Paris and had the pleasant opportunity to have a chat with Alan Braxe, the excellent French house producer. Swedish public service radio's music show P3 Musikjournalen broadcasted the interview on Tuesday this week. You can listen to it until August 23 with RealPlayer by using this link and then clicking "Tisdag" on the left side of the page. The interview starts at around 37 minutes into the show and lasts for about 12 minutes. - VoiceMailPiracy#2 - The Drunk Russian Returns...

...but turns out to be a Finnish wannabe-Russian. This one is rather explicit if you're in the know of the Swedish language. - MeroMero - 20050323 - Elepop Superstars! (41mb)

Time for the elepop show to turn up at MeroMero&More!! It features interviews with Macdonald Duck Eclair and NYC's very own pico pico-guru Trevor Sias of Music Related.
Now it's over 4 months since the show was made and when re-listening to it I hear a lot of things that easily could be improved, radiowise. Great to hear the MDDE members again though, they just seem to be the nicest people! I really hope the work with their 2nd album, re-scheduled for a fall-release, is coming along well.
The MDDE interview was made in Japanese and translated/presented in English, the Trevor Sias-one was all in English and the rest of the show was presented in Swedish. - VoiceMailPiracy#1 - Drinking In Russia (1mb)

Some guy left a confusing message on my voice mail a couple of days ago. I think he speaks in Swedish, German and English and tries to put a Russian touch on everything. MeroMero&More goes a little more private and shares it all. - MeroMero - 20050209 - Flipper's Guitar (Live), Yuka Honda and Capsule (42mb)

The second MeroMero was originally broadcasted on February 9 and featured an acoustic live recording of the legendary Flipper's Guitar from December 1989. Keigo Oyamada (Cornelius) and Kenji Ozawa performed half a dozen songs as a duo at the Yoyogi Chocolate City. We also had a live report of a gig with Yuka Honda (ex-Cibo Matto)'s performance band Panikaraqs, and a rather negative review of Capsule's latest album. All in Swedish though. - MeroMero - 20050126 - A retrospective of 2004 (43mb)

We've finally got something we can call summer here in southern Sweden, so it's time for MeroMero to go on a short break. During this time the back catalogue will be made available in mp3-format here at MeroMero&More. Every month, two episodes from earlier this year will be uploaded. First out, the opening show of 2005, a retrospective of the Japanese music year 2004. The show is made in Swedish and as it's the first one, expect some teething troubles.
Songs by among others Kazumasa Hashimoto, Plus-Tech Squeeze Box, Tommy February6, Sonic Coaster Pop, Electroacoustic Jazz Trio and Nomoto Karia. - Play Paul (6mb)

He is not just the younger brother of Daft Punk's Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo. Play Paul also makes the funkiest electro at the moment. But what does he really think about Human After All?
"I love it.. hehe.. but I know that 90% of the people who talk about the album don't like it. I think the only people who like it used to listen to rock, and that's also why I love it!"
Paul is fed up with house and r'n'b. He accepts that he has a Justin Timberlake-like voice, and that he's not as much of a dancer as Michael Jackson. Yet. Hear him talk, sing and play!
If you're in Sweden or Denmark you can catch him live this week. Tonight Malmoe, tomorrow Stockholm and on Saturday Copenhagen. - MeroMero - 20050518 - Rallye & Panache (39mb)
