This week's featured artist...

Swedish pop/dance duo and DJs The Attic were born out of the ashes of group Stereopol in 2003, and the group is made up of Eric Amarillo and Michael Feiner. Since then, they have released one and a half albums (this will be explained later) and several singles, as well as making some brilliant remixes for artists such as S-Pop favourites Alcazar, BWO and Fredrik Kempe. In addition to this, Amarillo and Feiner are also both songwriters, and have written tracks for Axwell, Nevada and Sebastian Ingrosso. Somehow amongst all this hard work, they found the time to participate in Melodifestivalen in 2007, teaming up with former Drömhus frontwoman and Stonbridge collaborator Therèse Grankvist on the song The Arrival. And the theme music to Melodifestivalen itself was written and performed by the boys!

Lena Philipsson | Lady Star

She's a lady, a Lady Star! When it comes to Schlagerqueens, Lena Philipsson is one of the biggest, and without a doubt the coolest! The 2006 release Lady Star, is a collection of b-sides, one-off singles, various bonus tracks and a little more besides spanning from 1986 to 2001. Basically, tracks which have not appeared on any of her studio albums. Pay special attention to the fantastic hands-off-my-man themed Helene and the hopelessly romantic Om Kärleken Är Blind.
Contains the singles Fly Me Over The Rainbow, Spell Of Love and Lady Star.

Christian Falk | People Say

People Say was the 4th solo album to be released by long-time music producer and bassist Christian Falk. Well, it's officially a solo album, but it features so many collaborations that solo might be pushing it a bit! The album was released at the end of 2006, and reached #17 in the album charts. It was showered with critical acclaim, and led to Falk winning the award for best modern dance at the Swedish Grammis. The album features S-Pop favourites Robyn and the Ark frontman Ola Salo, as well as Falk's own daughter, Vanessa.
Contains the singles Dream On and Shine.

Linda Bengtzing | Vild & Galen

Post-Schlager fever has really hit in Sweden now, with all of the tracks in this week's top 15 singles being Melodifestivalen entries. Ms. Bengtzing has taken advantage of this schlager-epidemic to release her fantastic 2nd album Vild & Galen (Wild & Crazy). The album is full of Linda's trademark upbeat schlagerpop, with clever lyrics and melodies you'll be humming all day. Also included is the hilarious Markoolio duet Värsta Schlagern, a parody of the perfect schlager tune. The album also contains what is possibly the coolest hidden track of all time: A Swedish-language cover of Sandra Kim's J'Aime La Vie recorded when Linda was just 11 years old!
Contains the singles Hur Svårt Kan Det Va?, Värsta Schlagern and the forthcoming Vild & Galen.

Tracklisting
01 Hur Svårt Kan Det Va?
02 Utan Dig
03 Inga Pojkar I Världen

Andreas Lundstedt | Lovegun/Nightfever

It's not just Magnus who's flown solo. Andreas has had a few attempts too. The double A-side Lovegun/Nightfever was released in 2006, and were Andreas's solo tracks on the Six4One album (the band with which Andreas performed the Swiss Eurovision entry in 2006). The decision to release a cover of the Beegees' classic came after Andreas's successful run in the Swedish production of Saturday Night Fever. The release had a particularly odd chart run, entering at #1 and then falling to #60 the following week!
S-Pop would like to assure readers that yes, that is the real cover, and yes, we think the designer should be shot too.

02 Nightfever

Alcazar | Start The Fire

Start The Fire was the final Alcazar single before their three year hiatus. The chorus is borrowed from Billy Joel's classic hit We Didn't Start The Fire, though the verses are completely new. During the filming of the video, poor Annikafiore managed to break her foot! The maxi single contains two previously unreleased tracks Glamourama and Nothing But The Video On. These tracks are rumoured to have been recorded for a third Alcazar studio album, which was never finished. The track reached #10 in Sweden, and, randomly enough #67 in Switzerland.

Tracklisting
01 Start The Fire
02 Glamourama
03 Nothing But The Video On
04 Start The Fire (Extended Version)
05 Physical (Poolbreeze Mix)
