Fejd


Fejd is a band hailing from Sweden, and the music they play can probably best be characterized as folk or world music. As far as I know, they only have one or two albums out, and I've only listened to one of them thus far. All of their music incorporates bagpipes, violins, and other traditional instruments, so you won't hear anything electric; also, all of their music is sung only in Swedish, which to me is as it should be.

Peter Fox


Personally I think that Peter Fox's solo work's better than most of what Seeed ever did, but both have their merits. Like Seeed, it's hip-hop mixed with pop influences, although without the funk and ska/reggae elements that characterized some of Seeed's work. Oh, as an aside, his actual name is Pierre Baigorry. So far, aside from a single or two, he's only released one album, entitled "Stadtaffe".

haha, this videoclip's ironically appropriate:
