Laid Back new Stella Polaris remix of 80s "Sunshine Reggae" TOP 5

Stella Polaris celebrated a new coming this year. Aalborg was added to the map of cities that the festival visited this summer. Including Aarhus, Odense and Copenhagen, 4 cities, 4 days + night with free music and lovely people. More that 50.000 people came to the festival and enjoyed exclusive live performances + dj set from Laid Back, Rôyksopp, Lulu Rouge, Opiate, Mike Sheridan, Chicane, Pete Gooding, Mikael Simpson and more. In all 18 international artists from the electronica and chill/downtempo scene visted Denmark in these 4 days of nation-wide chill-out week. ( See full lineup here).



It was hell of a car ride and lack of sleep, but when the people come, the sun shines, the music plays and Kalle B embraces, then its all good. Life is easy...with djs, good food, lovely people and lots of highway in between.




Meanwhile the 8th compilation has been released. "The Second Magic Number"  is the latest tracks from the Stella crew.

Since it's release on the 01st August we have already gained 2 TOP 10 Chill-out hits on Beatports "TOP Chill-tracks" with the massive remixes of Choir of Young Believer's "Hollow Talk (Lulu Rouge's Stella Polaris Remix)" and Laid Back's 80s super hit  all time summer tune "Sunshine Reggae" specially chilled down + remixed by the wonderful duo Visti & Meyland. Currently "Sunshine Reggae" has topped the chart for 3 weeks,  peak #5. The album entered at NO. 1 on Itunes Electronic Album chart in the 1stweek of release.
 Check some of the 13 tracks here  or go direct to you favourite on-line outlet and support the music.
Can't wait for next year. See you in the parks where the music plays.

The voice behind Twilights "Eyes On Fire"; Kirstine Stubbe Teglbjaerg - former leadvocalist in Blue Foundation - is out with new song

Billede: Dear All.
Since my departure from Blue Foundation in 2009 I have kept a very low profile. I have been underground, working alone in my studio in Copenhagen, searching for a new sound; my own sound. I have started from scratch, building up the energy and the music, step by step, feeding my flame.
 During this process I wanted to get as close as possible to a sound, that I can call my own, and therefore I decided to compose, arrange and produce all of the music myself. I wanted to find out how it would sound if I had held every single layer of the music in my hands.
 The music is created with the use of acoustic and electronic instruments, manipulated field recordings and my voice. The lyrics are written in Danish. I have been wanting to explore the nearness and intimacy of expressing myself in my mother tongue, for a long time. Now was a chance to do it. 

Being a part of Blue Foundation has been an incredibly fantastic adventure and I will always be proud of what I have created with the band. I can't describe how much it means to me, that so many people from all over the world have been listening to our music. I hope to meet some of you again, even though I have been away for so long.

I will release my first song "Drømmenes Lyd" from this bandpage one of the coming days - everything is almost in place!

LOVE Kirstine

She is one of the most gracious voices in pop music. Her voice is one of the most loved, played and heard female voices from Scandinavia. Former lead vocalist in Blue Foundation; the voice behind  "Eyes on Fire" (Twilight Soundtrack), "Sweep" (Michael Mann's Miami Vice) and several other hits is back.

Kirstine Stubbe Teglbjærg is finally breaking nearly 4 years of silence today by releasing her first song as a solo artist. The song entitled "Drømmenes Lyd" (Dream Sound) is not only her first release after her departure from Blue Foundation, but her first song ever in Danish.

Kirstine has chosen to give a FREE DOWLOAD here via her Soundcloud profile, and you can support her by getting the track via you favourite downloader, from Itunes to Amazon.



It will also be available via Itunes, Spotify and several other digital downloads worldwide from today the 20 Aug. 2012.

I am still shaking of excitement. Having worked as manger for Blue Foundation from 2001-2007,  I have followed Kirstine since the very beginning. It feels very special being here today and part of releasing her first solo track. I hope you will enjoy, share and embrace her music.
