Check out Galantis featured Insomniac’s “Top 20 Eps of 2014”!
Composed of production super duo Christian “Bloodshy” Karlsson (of Miike Snow and Grammy-winning production team Bloodshy & Avant) and Linus Eklöw (Style of Eye), Galantis define the ultimate level of electronic music production. They’ve got it figured out. When producers are hammering out recycled club bangers and fleeting festival anthems, Galantis are writing timeless songs. And therein lies the key separating them from the rest of the electronic tundra: Galantis are songwriters first and foremost, as best exemplified in their debut EP. Where “Smile” carries the zest of a big-room electro track, it’s light-years beyond and in its own league via the rare vocal pop, verse-chorus-structured song arc. Sure, “Smile” is the main hook, but its hand-in-hand couplet “You” demonstrates just how far they are willing and able to take things. Galantis is carrying the torch for the next class of electronic music, and this EP is the light.
Why EDM Duo Galantis Is Going To Be The EDM’S Biggest Thing In 2015
This past November, and at midtown Atlantic Record’s offices in New York City, I sat down with Galantis for an interview. Galantis is an EDM duo consisting of Miike Snow’s Christian Karlsson and Style of Eye’s Linus Eklöw. The Swedish-bred talent calls Atlantic Record’s Big Beat imprint home, having already put out an artist EP and eventually, next year, an album. Even though they’ve only been together for a year, Galantis presents themselves as polished industry veterans.
Clad in all-black v-neck t-shirts underneath black leather jackets, Christian sat hunched over on Atlantic Record’s comfy love seats while Linus reclined back. Christian answered most of my questions as Linus expounded his partner’s thoughts more deeply. They both speak fluent English and in soft-spoken, yet wholesome tones that allude to the humble personalities of exceedingly talented song writers and crowd-pleasing producers whose ascendance has been years in the making.
“I started music very early. I was like 14 when I got signed as an artist. Pretty much I never had a job, I didn’t go to school, so I’ve pretty much only did this [music]. I’m pretty useless for anything else to be honest. I only know this, so it’s not much of a choice, this is it,” Christian said. “One day you realize you have no choice, this is what you’re going to do because I couldn’t go 1 day without music without feeling weird,” Linus added. Currently released singles “You,” “Smile,” and a forthcoming Dillon Francis’s “Runaway (U&I) remix,” all together help identify Galantis as two musicians now poised to take the EDM world by storm with loftier expectations of superior releases down the line. Thus, when considering their early-on support from heavy-weights like Tiësto, Hardwell, and Kaskade, as well as their widely talked-about Coachella’s festival appearance, Galantis are BroBible’s nomination as the DJs, in 2015, next to blow up. Check out Brobible’s exclusive Q&A with Galantis below.
BroBible: Give us the story of how you came up with the name “Galantis.”
Christian: That story is so short, because we don’t know. We actually don’t know where the name came from, so we could try to make a story up, but the truth is we don’t really know. It just appeared.”
What was the defining moment when you knew Galantis would be successful?
Christian: Doing Coachella and seeing so many people coming out, singing along was a big moment for us. I don’t know exactly what that meant, at that point, but definitely felt that this is something that we want to spend our time on and do everything in our power to get it out there. We want to get our songs out there.”
You weren’t always DJs and producers. What were doing before you started DJing and then what got you into music?
Christian: I started music very early. I was like 14 when I got signed as an artist. Pretty much I never had a job, I didn’t go to school, so I’ve pretty much only did this [music]. I’m pretty useless for anything else to be honest. I only know this, so it’s not much of a choice, this is it.”
Linus: That’s how it happened for me as well. One day you realize you have no choice, this is what you’re going to do because I couldn’t go 1 day without music without feeling weird. It came very natural, and I haven’t had another job either. Everything I’ve done has been music related.
What’s your artistic vision for Galantis?
Christian: There are so many pieces of Galantis that we take very seriously. Of course, we’re from song writing, so that’s our number 1 priority. We write songs, in a way, that’s a little bit different from a lot of other artists in this genre. We just write melody and lyric, from piano or guitar, or whatever and then we create tracks, later. But also visual aspects are very important for us, the way everything from video or how the live show is.
That’s all we do, all day long is think about Galantis and the way we want Galantis to come out and be seen as. We’re trying to do something special with the live show, we’re trying to do something different in production, and on song-writing, all of it.
Is there a certain emotion or sentiment in mind with how you guys approach the songs that you produce?
Christian: “We don’t think about it. One can think about it after and hear other people talk about it, but we need to have that feel-good ‘thing’ with Galantis. Nothing is ever cold or too hard. There might be a sad story but with the feel-good to it.”
Linus: A lot of it is starting off with the piano. We sort of consider piano to be our hidden third member. The chords we end up liking or the melodies we end up liking, sort of sets the tone for the whole record or song.
The Galantis EP came out last April. Is there a song that you are most proud of off the EP or since Galantis was established in 2013?
Christian: We love “You” and that song has meant a lot to us. Probably that one and of course, “Runaway (U&I).” It’s the first single from our upcoming album and I think that one is very relatable to “You,” which I feel is that core of Galantis.”
Linus: But one thing we do is we give each song a treatment like it is our last song that we will ever write. We don’t do any fillers, we try to give all full attention both visually, and production and how its being released.

Additionally, The Drop syndicated the video interview with Galantis from Complex TV!
Swedish production duo Galantis has been blowing up over the past year, especially with the release of the their latest hit “Runaway (U & I).”
After highly successful solo runs as Style of Eye and Miike Snow, Christian Karlsson and Linus Eklow have teamed up for what has become one of the most intriguing projects of the past year. Immediately upon entering your ears, their songs captivate you, leaving you salivating for more.
In this video interview with Do Androids Dance courtesy of Complex News, Christian and Linus discuss their origins as producers, where the name ‘Galantis’ came from, and explain the meaning behind that trippy feline moniker associated with all of their song releases.
This interview provides some pretty sick insights into one of the hottest, fastest rising sounds in the scene.

Check out a video interview with Galantis on Complex TV!
The duo known as Galantis have been on a roll since linking up with A-Trak for “Jumbo” back in early 2013. What’s interesting is that these two have been touching the pop realm for a bit; Christian (aka Bloodshy) co-wrote and produced Britney Spears’ “Toxic,” while Linus (aka Style of Eye) produced Icona Pop’s “I Love It.” When you soak that information in, it makes way more sense that their latest single, “Runaway (U & I),” has been performing so well. The heads at Complex News caught up with Galantis during a pair of shows in New York City to chat about how they got their respective names, where the name “Galantis” came from, their Seafox mascot, and catch some footage of them live.

Check out Billboard’s “10 Best Electronic/Dance Songs of 2014”:
#5 Galantis – “Runaway (U&I)”
www.billboard.com/articles/events/year-in-music-2014/6398470/best-edm-songs-of-2014
“After releasing "Smile" and "You" to critical acclaim in advance of their Coachella debut, Swedish super duo Galantis delivered on their potential with "Runaway." Their most complete release to date features memorable verses, mammoth chord progressions and the peerless production quality we've come to expect from Christian Karlsson (of Miike Snow and Bloodshy & Avant) and Linus Eklow (aka Style of Eye).”
EDM superhero Dillon Francis has an strangely endearing knack for putting together sonically nutso, garish tracks—his Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs collab "Without You" and his remix of Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie" pretty much represent the opposite ends of his very lovable spectrum. Now he's taken his talents to Galantis' "Runaway (U & I)," reworking the Swedish production duo's beaming tune by speeding up the vocal hook and adding in a festival-ready drop or two, so you know it's real. ""We are big fans of Dillon Francis and we were super stoked when he reached out to work together," Galantis told FADER in an email. "This is truly one of the standout remixes of the year."
