Degrees

Sorry for being so quiet during the past few days, but I've just got back to Salonica to work for the Thessaloniki International Film Festival and I don't have Internet connection at home (I know, it sucks big time). Anyway, stay tuned for a soundtrack-themed Indie Disco podcast coming up sometime this week (ie. as soon as I manage to upload it). oh, and if you're in town come to Warehouse C by the pier to say hello.

In the meantime pay a visit to myspace.com/degreestranas, and learn about one of Sweden's best kept secrets. They are called Degrees and I'm pretty sure they'll be the next big thing. Degrees are Mikael Jacobson and Rickard Folke, two guys from the darkest Swedish woods in a town called Tranås. They've been been playing music for since they cannot remember but recently they found each other wanting the same thing and decided to put their hearts and brains together (and I'm glad they did). At the moment they're just trying to record songs and get them out to as many people as they can, but hopefully they'll release their debut album really soon. Their tunes are quite dreamy and upbeat (fans of M83 will love them) and they'll surely leave a smile upon your face. To hear for yourselves, visit them at Myspace and leave them a shout out, will you?
