The people that make the radio show Ström on Swedish Radio is making a film for Swedish Television. It’s about Sweden’s electronic music history. From the 50’s until present day. The full story will be told, about the music, the artists, the record labels, the clubs, the politics – and most of all about Sweden. A country that has changed a lot over the past 60 years, just as Swede’s attitude against this music. Electronic music has been misunderstood, neglected and even accused of various problems in society. Nowadays this music is a big part of Sweden’s music export. The name of the film is “Ström Åt Folket” – “Power (or electricity) To The People”. The film will be premiered on Swedish Television K-Special in late spring 2012.
