Michael Dee

Michael Dee has been played on NTS shows including Altered Soul Experiment w/ Amila, with T.S.O.B. (Instrumental) first played on 4 April 2019.

Michael Dee is a swedish journalist who made two albums in the 80s. He met producer John McGeoch while working in London, and in 1983 they made the album "Snälltåg till himlen", or Fast Train to Heaven. The album features an 18 year old singer called Idde Schultz, now far more known in sweden than the lead artist. The album is largely made up of new wave versions of what is basically evergreens, 30s cabaret songs, and pianobar staples. Michael Dee performed the hit song "Hurra, hurra, vad det är roligt i Moskva" on national television in a classic playback performance that is still passed around on the internet. The song is based on the refrain from a 1930s satirical schlager by Karl Gerhard about a swedish trade delegation to Stalin's Soviet Union. His second album, Portraits, 1987, went by largely unnoticed, and today Michael Dee seems to be still working as a journalist.
