EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: Gustaf Spetz - Burn It, Crush It, Smash It
.jpg)
Though the title sounds something like a war call, leave it to the Swedes to smolder any caustic thoughts into a shimmering lullaby. While Gustaf Spetz does sound a bit like "A Ted Gärdestad on drugs that has listened to much on Beach Boys and Beatles" as his Myspace indicates, it's simpler to say his tracks just bottle up sun-blissed happiness via breezy synths, coddled "ohhs," and swaying pop rhythms. It's perfect for a watching a winter wonderland of big, frothy snowflakes from the warm cocoon of your bed, while craving grown-up snow days and home-made hot cocoa. (Or maybe I just have romantic Swedish envy from seeing Lykke Li last night.....) The point is the track could give hope to even the most pessimistic New Yorker trudging through snow today.
Sounds Like: Beach Boys, Jens Lekman, Ferraby Lionheart, Sondre Lerche, Beatles
