This is probably the exact reason behind the naming of his debut solo album <span class=\"quotation\">Scandinavian Melancholy<\/span>. The other reason is perhaps the chirpy, crisp electronic fragments in this single allude to the golden era of electronic Swedish indie pop from the noughties, namely <span class=\"norskord\">the Knife<\/span> and the other acts under the now deceased label <span class=\"norskord\">Yours Sincerely<\/span>. What also intrigues us is Leif\u2019s particular interest in exploring bisexuality in his music, which is the very theme of the newly released music video for <span class=\"quotation\">New Beat<\/span>.
