Not only was today’s performance Miike Snow’s worldwide radio debut, but it was only their second live show! The band has been shrouded in mystery. Many people think it’s just one guy. Well, Miike Snow is not one person – there are three behind the album and there were six of them in the studio today. The name was inspired by a friend of theirs but they added an extra “I” for an “extra dimension of Dadaism.” When Jason first started playing them in January, I was instantly hooked. Their music combines a perfect pop sensibility and electro music for an addictive mix. When I learned that two of the group’s members-- Christian Karlsson and Pontus Winnberg -- have been behind huge pop hits by Britney Spears (they co-wrote and produced “Toxic” among others), Madonna and more as Bloodshy and Avant, I was not at all surprised.
