Swedish Duo Essen Hiort Release New Single 'Paradise'
By: Caryn Robbins
Premiered on Swedish national radio station P3, Essen Hiort's 'Paradise' is the new single from the rising Swedish electronic duo. Featuring vocals from American singer, La Luz, and co-written with Swedish songwriter, Patrik Berggren (with a host of European No.1 singles to his name), 'Paradise' is a slow jam that showcases Essen Hiort's emerging pop sensibility.
Essen Hiort's last single 'Already Won' (also featuring La Luz) earned them reviews and playlist spots with Popjustice, Swedish radio, and a host of Northern Europe's biggest New Music Friday pop playlists. This release was preceded by the duo's 'The Deeper End EP' - (which featured 'Kiss You Real Slow', 'Flowin' and 'The Tiger'), and Essen Hiort's debut single for disco:wax, 'Deep As The Night', the original of which came with a remix from Huxley. With echoes of James Blake, SG Lewis, and Rationale, plus the Scandi-pop heritage of their homeland, Essen Hiort is a pseudonym for two talented individual artists/songwriters who are keeping their names under wraps (for now). 'Essen' is formerly a hip hop DJ known for playing Scandinavia's biggest clubs, who later turned to production and is now a Grammy-nominated songwriter. 'Hiort' comes from an indie rock background, having played in a famous 'Swindie' band (Swedish Indie, if you're asking), and with an extensive songwriting pedigree.BUY/STREAM:
