New music from Alex Zethson

Based in the Swedish capital of Stockholm, Alex Zethson is a prolific musician and artist who’s become known for his work in bands such as Angles, VÖ, and Tropiques as well as being a frequent collaborator of Mariam the Believer, Sven Wunder and Fire! Orchestra among many others.

Now ready to venture out as a solo artist under his own name, he’s bringing to fruition his unique sonic vision and shares with us his brand new single as Alex Zethson with the track titled “Room with a view”. Recorded at Mälarhöjden Social Club in Stockholm and released via the Thanatosis production imprint, Alex Zethson’s debut effort delivers a chilled out country-inspired instrumental sound.

Linking up with a host of talented musicians, on the track several revered artists add their own flair such as Torbjörn Zetterberg on bass, drummer Konrad Agnas and guitarist Anton Toorell who also co-produces the song, who’s worked with the likes of Receptacles, Dammit I’m Mad and Invader Ace.

With Alex Zethson laying down keyboards and contrasting tones from an MS20 synthesiser, on “Room with a view” he spins a dream-like soundscape full of piquant melodic leads and jazz style tinges that transports you to a distant and fantastical scene.

The perfect introduction to his original compositional talents and performance panache, with his first outing as a solo artist he shares a graceful exploration of his entirely unique sound by crafting a mesmerising piece unlike anything else you’ve heard before.
