Currently Listening to: Niki & The Dove - The Fox

When someone figures out a way to get this song out of our heads, just send suggestions on a postcard please. Niki & the Dove are a Swedish band channelling that whole Fever Ray/Lykke Li vibe. If you're a bit of a Scando-phile, they're playing The Haunt in Brighton tonight for £6 on the door. Judging by their London performance earlier this week, it's not one to be missed by any of you who find yourselves on Brighton's shores tonight.

Currently Listening to: Lykke Li - Get Some (Beck Remix)

Get Some by LykkeLi

The Swedish beauty is back, and armed with remixes from both Beck and Beastie Boy Mike D. In case you've been avoiding all the hype, she's still got lead track 'Get Some' and its B-side 'Paris Blue' for free download here. The production is sounding sick so far and she's definitely got a new, more aggressive musical angle that we're loving.

Hot. Talented. Singing about how "you gon' get some". What else is there?

Happy Socks

I personally rarely wear socks, unless it's mega cold but even then I just whip on a pair of plain black ones. However, one of my best boy chums loves his brightly coloured socks and patterned foot warmers. For his birthday I bought him two pairs from the Swedish company 'Happy Socks'

Happy Socks are today sold in more than 40 countries across all continents. The collection of socks features an almost endless variety of models and designs, crossing a wide spectrum of colour combinations, materials and textures. Simply put: a pair of high-quality socks for every occasion, mindset and style. Manufactured at a local factory in Turkey.
