We’ve been giving a lot of airtime at home to this Swedish jazz/poptronica duo lately. They just released a new album; here’s a clip from it. The singer is Yukimi Nagano, who started singing for them when she was just 15 (she must be 18 or 19 now since their first album came out in 2002 — pretty amazing).

Oh yeah, it’s all about Koop. Koop Islands is probably my favorite record this year so far. I did a special on Koop on my last radio show, too.
p.s. playing this Saturday, 28 Oct. 6-9 am CET on Radio 1…
Yep – the lead singer is great, but she seems more of a studio singer rather than a live performer. When I saw them at Bimbo’s 365, I was kind of underwhelmed by her voice. Maybe she was having a bad day, who knows.
