From the Swedish Grammy award winning album “Mänskligheten” Familjen is now releasing the third single. It’s called “Man ser det från månen”.
Previous single “Det var jag” was one of the most played songs on the Swedish national radio 2010 and with its Asian flourished beat it made everyone in Sweden sing in Scanian, Familjen’s signature dialect. Now the party is almost over and the dance floor slows down.
This time we have narrowed it done to only one official remix and it comes from Tiger Stripes. Known for his fabulous work for labels like; Nite Grooves, Get Physical, Ibadan and Drumcode. Here he invents a new genre – kraut house.

It’s been three years since Familjen aka Johan T. Karlsson stormed charts, venues and festivals with especially the title track off his debut album ‘Det snurrar i min skalle’. When the follow up was released earlier this year, it was clear that the party is still going.
While much has happened since the "Det snurrar i min skalle” epidemic spread, the groove, drive and the sudden impulses are just as knock-out this time. Take the maxed out Motown drums and distorted bass on the first single "När planeterna stannat". It screams attention and once again drags us out on the dance floor. The track parked itself high on charts and established Familjen as one of the great Swedish artists. This has been even clearer when watching all the ten thousands dancers that show up on all the many festival shows during the summer. The summer of 2010 has been nothing but a big party for followers of Swedish melodic vocal house.
Second chapter starts with the release of the next single “Det var jag”. A bittersweet vocal melody, a post punk bass line (played by Kent’s Martin Sköld) and an unforgettable slightly Asian tune together with Johan’s almost mythological vocals will, once it has drilled its way in to your head, be stuck there for the rest of the year. We promise.
All is brought to you together with an extraordinary golden video and a string of fingerpicked remixes. The party will continue far beyond every border; abroad and within.
This is the vinyl version. Availible on...

Familjen is back – dance and listen and you might learn about humanity.
While much has happened since the "Det snurrar i min skalle” epidemic spread, the groove, drive and the sudden impulses are just as knock-out this time. Take the maxed out Motown drums and distorted bass on upcoming single "När planeterna stannat". It screams attention and once again drag us out on the dance floor.
This combined with Familjen’s love for the grandiose, sounds from far out places and the beauty in the single tune from a vintage synth and you might actually get something that tells you something about – Humanity!

Detta är första singeln från Familjens kommande andra album. Även om det har hänt massvis sen den storskaliga ”Det snurrar i min skalle”-epidemin slog till, så är svänget, drivet och de plötsliga infallen exakt lika knockande den här gången med.
Lyssna bara på de maxade Motowntrummorna och den distade basen på singeln ”När planeterna stannat”. Toppad med Sami Sirviös hurdy gurdy-gitarr skriker de på uppmärksamhet och tvingar oss på nytt ut på dansgolvet.
2007 blev du överraskad. Den här gången är du förvarnad. Familjen är tillbaka – större och slamrigare än någonsin.
