EMMON, the solo project of Swedish artist Emma Nylén, has become a prominent name on the electronic music scene in Sweden and is rapidly gaining recognition across Europe. With a career spanning over two decades, she’s established herself as a leading figure in genres like EBM, Electro, and Synth, often hailed as Sweden’s “electro queen.”

Sweden's Electro Queen EMMON continues to claim recognition with her electrifying presence on the European music scene. Most recently with a remix collaboration by Terence Fixmer on her anthem Machines and the single Speak to Me.

EMMON, also known as Emma Nylén, has been riding high on the success of her latest album, RECON (2022), and the follow up EP XCEPTION from 2024, both of which received glowing reviews. The album was nominated for best album from esteemed publications such as GAFFA, HYMN, and DN. Notably, the album was awarded Synth Release of the Year at the 2023’s Manifest Gala, the prestigious Release of the Year by the highly appraised Synthsläggan Awards, as well as Electro of the Year by GAFFA Awards.

After her widely celebrated comeback in 2022 EMMON has been gracing stages and festivals across Europe. Highlights include NCN Festival in Leipzig (DE), Wave Gotik Treffen in Leipzig, Prague Gotik Treffen, Infest in Bradford (UK) , BIMFEST (BE) and Eastside festival in Germany. She's also the radio host and DJ of Skivhyllan i P3/ P3mix on Swedish National Radio.

Jonathan Baker and Benedikta Ársælsdóttir explore as a solemn promise an emotional state of feeling isolated and seeking comfort in each other, like pigeons gathering at your local square, with their EP ´feathers´. The duo creates a sound that’s vulnerable yet abrasive, combining sonic elements of industrial and neoclassical.
