New Music Video: When You Leave- Young Tiger

Hook-driven electro pop-beats accompany a warm and impassioned Scandinavian voice as Copenhagen-based duo YOUNG TIGER (aka Emma and Rasmus) make their debut with their striking single ‘When You Leave’.

A lyrical universe is set for discovery as Swedish-Danish Emma maps out, word-by-word, the factors coming into play in the relations between lovers, delivering a melancholic, yet hopeful lyrical search of making sense of a world where love is a game and words are often wrongfully interpreted, leaving us in longing and despair.

YOUNG TIGER was founded in a loft in New York in October last year. While Rasmus spent his teens playing punk music before he started producing, the enchanting vocal capabilities of Emma were laying their roots within the jazz and folk scenes. However their collision course was on track and when they finally impacted, they joined forces to create undeniably catchy music laced with cinematic and melancholic elements.

Now set to make their debut to the world, YOUNG TIGER collaborate with the Danish producer Simon Littauer and British songwriter Wolfie for the mesmerizing ‘When You Leave’.

New Music Video: Liar – Andreas Wijk

Swedish singer/songwriter ANDREAS WIJK unveiled his debut video – with such poise and style, I must say – for single, ‘Liar’,

Boasting an elegant fusion of R&B and electro pop, the three-minute production sees Andreas – also a model for YSL and Tommy Hilfiger – expresses his agony over a lost love, through his rich pop/soulful false falsetto.

Music has always been Andreas’ passion and at the age of 15, he put up his first cover on YouTube – but his experience in the industry hasn’t been so straightforward. After a consistency releasing videos, which caught the eye of a major label in Los Angeles, he found himself trapped in a dispute label deal for years. “I wrote music all the time, but couldn’t release anything.” Andreas said of the experience.

Instead, he created a name in media by working on huge campaigns for brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Dolce & Gabanna and YSL. Today, Andreas returned to the music by releasing his project 100% independent.

So here your chance to check out Andreas’ latest offering…enjoy!

The video was directed by Andreas Wijk and Joel Hordegard.
