A Swedish electro-pop group who appears imminent to expand their fan base is Pacific!, a duo comprised of Danny and Bjorn, two 35-year-olds from Gothenburg. They take their influences from both their Swedish and international counterparts, incorporating an infectious display of nostalgically romantic synth-pop with contemporary interpretations of funk and disco.

In other words the music of Pacific! is multi-dimensional, well textured and super groovy. Not to me listened to if you don't have an open mind. A lot of people end up listening to the same genre of music over and over without ever appreciating other talented people. Step outside of the box for this one because if you give it a chance you'll probably like it. It took me awhile, but it did grow on me. It's good, fun music if not a bit mindless at times it's definitely upbeat and interesting.

Plus, they have a really cool website.

Listen:
pacific! - "Sunrise" (mp3)
pacific! - "Sunset Blvd" (mp3)

BUY THEIR MUSIC!
