Hi,
Yesterday the North American edition of "Disco Romance" was released in
Canada! You can order it directly from www.paperbagrecords.com, if you
do that you receive a bonus CD label sampler including an exclusive
remix of "He keeps me alive" by Norwegian DJ/artist Skatebård. See
forwarded mailout from Paper Bag. In two weeks it will be released in
USA as well.

We're also glad to tell you that the "Johan Agebjörn featuring Sally
Shapiro" track "Spacer woman from Mars" (see earlier post) is going to
be released as a 12" single with remixes on Lo Recordings sublabel Loeb
(www.l-o-e-b.com). It was originally planned for November, but because
of the postal strike in England, the CD hasn't arrived to the pressing
plant yet! So it has been delayed until January. Tracklist and previews
will be posted when we have a release date.

Finally, we've made a new mix (well Johan made it actually) for Tokion
FM (USA) and Pig Radio (Italy). You can download it here:

Sackaros.mp3

Here is the tracklist:
1. Mylène Farmer - L'Ame-Stram-Gam (1999)
2. Sophie Rimheden feat. Annika Holmberg - Can You Save Me? (Mont
Ventoux Remix) (2005)
3. Cloetta Paris - I Miss You Someone (2007)
4. Sally Shapiro - I Know (2006)
5. Souvenir - Allô allô (Johan Agebjörn remix) (2007)
6. Ercola feat. Annie - Follow Me (Original Club Mix) (2007)
7. Mikado - Romance (1983)
8. Ingela Renliden - Dockans Man (1967)

The Johan Agebjörn remix of Spanish band Souvenir is going to be
released on their new CD EP in a few months, exclusive prelisten in the
mix.

Greetings from Sweden,
Johan and Sally
