Don't Stop by Velvet & Therese

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Swedish dance divas Velvet and Therese have just dropped a single together, it’s called "Don’t Stop." 


This is the first time they do a duet and it sounds just as good as we could expect it to sound. Since they are two of Sweden’s biggest and best dance acts, it makes a lot of sense that they are doing a song together. Have a listen ...


For those who are not familiar with them, let us do a quick retrospect of their careers.


Therese

Therese Grankvist kicked off her career under the Alias Drömhus, releasing two hit albums in Sweden before changing her stage name to Therese only. She was featured in huge dance hits, such as "Put ‘Em High" and "Take Me Away" by Stonebridge. She has also written Alcazar’s 2014 single "Good Lovin’" (which was rumored to be one of the tracks she had recorded for her Missing Disco album, released in 2015).


Velvet

Velvet (aka Jenny Peterson) released her first single "Rock Down To (Electric Avenue)" in 2005, after some years working as a backing vocal for other Swedish artists (Funnily enough she sang back up for Lina in 2003 before she was in Alcazar with her song "Nothing Can Stop Me") . In 2006, Velvet took part in Sweden's Melodifestivalen with "Mi Amore" and released her first album, Finally.

Velvet participated in Melodifestivalen two more times with "Deja Vu" in 2008 and "The Queen" in 2009. She has released many amazing singles, including the UK version of BWO’s "Right Here, Right Now." She’s been a bit quiet in the past few years, releasing only 4 singles in the past 4 years. So we’re quite happy that she’s back now with such a stomper.



They promised that there’ll be some remixes coming soon. We really hope they also shoot a video for it! 

In the meantime, "Don't Stop" is available on digital outlets everywhere and with an extended version, too! We've added the radio version to our 2017 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify. Have a listen. And buy your copy today!

Cheers then,
—Raoni
