Today, the Spotlight shines On musician and producer Daniel Ögren.
Daniel is one of the artists propelling Sweden’s contemporary new music scene. He has an extensive body of work as a solo artist and as a member of Sven Wunder, The Greys, and, most notably, Dina Ögon. He also works as a producer and musician for other artists.
Daniel joined us upon the release of his album Fastingen-92 on the Mr Bongo (https://us.mrbongo.com/products/fastingen-92-vinyl-lp-cd) label. The record “draws from Daniels's love of South American folk music, soul, Nordic folk music and film soundtracks, resulting in something unique, dreamlike and transformational.”
It is a terrific record, very much worth a listen, as is our talk with Daniel. Enjoy.
