This is not particularly new. It’s just that I suddenly realised during a poptronicagasm last night that I couldn’t live without it.
This is The Fox by Swedish electronica duo Niki and The Dove. Niki is not the singer’s name (it’s Malin) and there is no further mention of ornithological interests, but surely that’s on the forgivable end of nomenclatural fraud? I’d much rather Kate Bush-style hollering and slightly off-kilter synths than the kind of twee candyfloss the band name suggests, anyway.

Lovely, innit? And here’s more eerie dancepop in DJ Ease My Mind (which sounds like Natasha Khan at the Eurovision)
