Lionheart is part of Universal Sweden. Have been trying all year to get them to make Emilia’s album available worldwide (and A*Teens Pop Till You Drop).

so it would be a struggle to get any others online!
 
Can we get Rooster online? I went to play Staring at the Sun after clearing out my cd collection and it’s not available.
 
Amazing!

Now quick, get ALL THE SCHLAGER online while Universal Sweden are in a good mood :disco:
 
I loved her last album, the covers one.

(I do generally like her, having said that)
 
That album was horrendously promoted at the time, but it's really very good.

Lukas and Fun would both comfortably make my Natalie Imbruglia top ten.
 
I'm noticing a bit of Swedish stuff starting to filter through since that Emilia/A*Teens breakthrough. Most importantly Nanne's Håll om mig is now available.

Hopefully you've opened the floodgates. :sweden:
 
Tbh I don’t use Spotify and probably it doesn’t work for me but I’m proud of @aquaplex for doing something worthwhile in their life, I’m jealous

Quite right. Everyone trips over themselves to congratulate Greta Thunberg for floating around in her recycled boat and being sad about trees, while aquaplex is actually making a difference day in, day out.
 
I loved her mini comeback back then. It almost looked like she'd blagged another more recently with that debonair ditty Testify, but her PA setlist is a lock.
 
Not sure if this is an @aquaplex job, but I just thought I'd flag that Velvet's MAGNIFICENT 'The Queen' album is finally on UK Spotify!

People TAKE A BOW :evil:

Sorry, I have been completely crap since lockdown in forum posting - but here is a bumper selection of what I've gotten online since March. At times it feels like a slog and that I am hardly getting much online, then looking back, turns out I've managed a fair whack.

Online for the first time:

Smoke 2 Seven's never ever released album!


Two Ultra Nate singles from her 2001 Stranger Than Fiction album



The UK release of XTM's Top 10 hit


Better than Diana Ross' version (don't @ me)


Gloria Estefan's 1998 megamix of Latin hits


All the remixes of E'voke humungous flop from 1998


Wamdue Project's second single with the "let's get Roy Malone to do an indentical remix to King Of My Castle" mix


Tiga & Zyntherius' 2002 UK hit (only new mixes had been available)


And this compilation which includes the following which were digitised for the first time:
Glamma Kid & Shola Ama - Taboo (Stargate Single Mix)
William Orbit - Ravel's Pavane Pour Une Infante Defunte (Ferry Corsten Radio Edit)
Grace - Down To Earth 97 (Ascension Remix)
Sapphire - I'll Never Be Lonely Again
Dubstar - Stars (Motiv8 remix)

Sweet release! I need to figure out how to use spotify if those are up. I assume having to pay has been what has been the issue. I genuinely don't recall that E'voke song..
 
And those that are now back on streaming....

Alexia's Greatest Hits spanning 2001 - 2005


Minimalistix and their slight OTT trance versions of classical-ish tracks


Alsou's 2001 English language album


Fedde Le Grand's 2006 UK #1 Put Your Hands Up For Detroit


Barbara Tucker's 1994 club hit I Get Lifted


Back on via a compilation, this 1998 Top 10 Hit by Echobeatz


and Saint Etienne's 2012 album - f-knows why this took so long given rights reverted to them late 2018....
 
and finally this lot have had availability extended to worldwide!

Even I was taken aback by the popularity on this one. Nicola has tweeted and we're onto 670 likes!


Toni's sistas


A trio of Infernal stuff




A*Teens debut (now out in North America)


Gwen Stefani's not so great single (now in UK & Ireland)


Crystal Waters' debut


and Girlicious' debut album


That's all (for now)
 
@aquaplex - have you had any dealings with recordings once owned by ZTT? I believe they were acquired by Universal in 2017.

I'm very keen to get Kirsty Maccoll's Titanic Days album on digital platforms as it's one of my all-time favourites. Sent off a few emails but to no avail so far. (I'm sure I'm not even scratching the surface of the work you do!)
