Kleerups remix of the new Natalia Kills track Zombie has been named as Popjustice’s ‘Song Of The Day’:
“Compared with the splendidly superstylised radio edit this Kleerup reimagining of ‘Zombie’ is one of those mixes that makes a little extra sense of what’s going on in a song and may even hint at what’s to come once all the buzz track business it out of the way. Very good.”
Mark Hoppus from Californian Punk band Blink-182 has picked our Kleerup for a feature in his regular feature in Spin Magazine!
“I really like the minimalist approach that he uses with the programming. It’s really beautiful. It’s something that really reminds me of late nights. He does a lot of collaborations with female vocalists, and I think the female vocalists that he chooses have very unique voices and it makes the tracks even more ethereal and more dreamy.”

“Andreas Kleerup’s self titled debut album is nothing but flawless from start to end. Seriously there is nothing I can’t say about this album that is bad. It’s like a Hans Christian Andersen audio novel for Generation-Y”

“Lykke Li collaboration “Until We Bleed” is a melancholy delight, and even when the tempo picks up on upbeat instrumentals like “Thank You for Nothing” and “Tower of Trellick,” the music’s polish and restraint maintains a vibe that is almost pastoral, a welcome respite in this age of buzzing bangers.”

“His neoclassical melodies feel warm and full of blood, his keyboards weep where others bleep, and he puts so much skillful passion into female vocal showcasing that the tracks on his solo debut are consumed by a yearning for companionship that’s only shaken momentarily (on the resigned “On My Own Again,” which he sings). Still, “With Every Heartbeat,” featuring Robyn, remains a monument of devastation, while “Longing for Lullabies,” sung by Titiyo, sends a postcard from the ruins.”
