Three years ago we released the first Human Blue album, finally it is time for the follow up.

Even though he has not had any releases on Spiral Trax, Dag Wallin surely kept himself busy on other labels. He is also studying to become a teacher at the University of Gothenburg and has worked part time as a music teacher as well as in a music store.

"Electric Roundabout" is a move from the darker sound of recent productions and represents a move towards a deeper, progressive sound. Yet he´s still managed to keep his feeling for delicately structured soundscapes and harmonies backed up with a chunky groove. The expectations on the long awaited new album from this classically schooled musician has been extremely high but not over exaggerated.

When the first single, "Carpe Diem/Intercity", from this album was released, it got enormous reviews in music magazines and became the single of the month on websites all over the world.

For example the Canadian magazine Klublife said, "Carpe Diem is so good that people will probably have religious experiences during the tracks finale", and German Mushroom magazine simply called it, "Perfect music!" It also got picked up by internationally acclaimed DJ´s such as Cass (from Cass & Slide) and John 00 Flemming (regular at Gatecrasher and Godskitchen), who also included Carpe Diem and Memorexis for his latest mix CD on Euphoria. Stating, "Both Human Blue tracks stood out from the rest for me. They bring me hope that the intelligent World of Trance is truly alive and kicking!".
