VA- We Come From the North Vol. 1
A message board I'm a part of with some pals started a thread focusing on music from specific countries.. Since my Scandinavian music hour radio show is on hiatus currently (and I have a longstanding obsession with music from northern Europe), I've been restructuring alot of my catalog and playlists, finally making a first mix to share. Obviously, Scandinavia isn't a country, but I didn't want to limit it to just one this time around. It seems a bit more cohesive to include all Nordic principalities.. So, this is the beginning of the series, and leans heavily on the Swedes, with a bit of Icelandic and Danish..
(Listen to in the car or with headphones or with some really, really good stereo speakers.)
