Foreign albums
Depeche Mode: Ultra
English perfection. A true masterpiece.
Alphaville: Salvation
It took them thirteen years to complete the natural "Forever Young" sequel.
And One: Nordhausen
Their fifth album. And together with Spot their best, by far.
Paradise Lost: One Second
The album that proved that the winds of change are still blowing.
Erasure: Cowboy
No commercial success, but without doubt one of this years highlights.

Foreign songs
Depeche Mode: It's No Good
Bull's Eye by Mr Martin Gore.
Alphaville: Wishful Thinking
Melancholy, great singing and a glorious chorus.
Erasure: Don't Say Your Love Is Killing Me
The way they should sound.

Foreign live artist
Mesh
Peaceful moods and explosion-like chorus in perfect harmony.

Foreign newcomer
Equatronic
Very smooth, nice-sounding electropop, made with the glint in the eye.

Foreign artist
Depeche Mode
Unbelievable comeback. Of all of their albums, "Ultra" is the most addictive. It just won't let me go...

Swedish albums
Robot: Automagic
Nostalgic, but with the eyes steadily on the future.
Weeping Willows: Broken Promise Land
Sad...sader...Weeping Willows.
EnCounter: Kontakt
Female voice + electronic pop = Pure enjoyment.
Kent: Isola
This one grows. And grows. And grows...
Automatic (former Dead Eyes Open): Global
On their debut album the eyes were closed. On the second they opened. Now, on their third the eyes have started to hypnotize the listener.

Swedish songs
Robot: Members of the Stars
In times of musical reumatism, this band swept Sweden of its feet.
Weeping Willows: Broken Promise Land
Feeling blue? Don't let this one roam (in) your stereo...
Saft: Underbar
Pop, in itself...

Swedish live artist

You can't go wrong with this material.

Swedish newcomer
Robot
Brilliant fusion of rock and electro.
