The motivation reads:
“If the riot grrls, shoegazers and ravers got together, their spawn might resemble Rebecca & Fiona. The Swedish duo’s first album, “I Love You, Man,” is a gauzy, pretty and slightly strange collection of left field electro-pop — more muted than their friend and countrywoman Robyn’s work, but no less appealing. But in the DJ booth, the pair leaves the atmospherics at home, opting instead for hard-hitting beats that go for the jugular. Add that to kindercore-meets-candy-raver outfits, a fierce independence in the studio (they write and produce all their own work), and a self-determined career strategy — and you’ve got one of the first girl-positive pop artists since the ’90s. – Kerri Mason”
