Product Description Highly anticipated 2009 sophomore album from the Swedish Popsters. Machine Dreams finds Little Dragon moving towards a more electronic sound without losing any of their soulfulness. Gothenburg, Sweden is a hotbed of diverse and escalating musical talent. From the mighty Soundtrack of Our Lives to idiosyncratic songsmiths José González and Jens Lekman, through to the unpredictable pop styles from the likes of Love is All and Audrey, not to mention the infamous black metal scene, Gothenburg now boasts the dynamic, organically soulful pop sounds of Little Dragon. The band features radiant vocalist Yukimi Nagano and her close high school friends Erik Bodin (drums), Fredrick Källgren (bass) and Håkan Wirenstrand (keyboards). Peacefrog. Review Having toured relentlessly since the last record, Little Dragon found themselves to be very popular in the US specifically on the West coast. After sessions on KCRW s popular Morning Becomes Eclectic show, their album became the most played on the station after Radiohead. No mean feat for the little dragons from Sweden, especially when they did not even have a US record label backing their forays. The track Twice even got played on hit US show Grey s Anatomy, and eventually the band were brought to the attention of David Sitek who became an instant fan (as did notorious basement dweller DJ Shadow) and asked them to support TV On The Radio on their US tour in May 2009. --Bio
