A year with Svensk Musik

Svenskmusik.org has published in depth-essays, much talked about video interviews and spread Swedish music abroad. 

We celebrate a year with www.svenskmusik.org . During the past year we have been a natural place for music fans all over the world that wants to discover and bury themselves in Swedish music genres, whether it’s classical, hip hip, techno or jazz. We have asked some of Swedens best music journalists to write in-depth essays that has been discussed frequently in social media. Together with La Vida Locash we have produced video feature where we go behind the music, and talked to some of the different genres greatest representatives. We have answered questions asked by journalists, editors and music fans.

• We have published essays by Jan Gradvall, Nanushka Yeaman, Kristin Lundell, Carl Reinholdtzon Belfrage, Calle Dernulf and Kalle Malmstedt, about such diverse subjects as metal in Gothenburg, Swedish hip hop, the jazz genre in the 60s and the hardcore scene.
