A brief history of time…

15 years ago, Sally Shapiro shared their first song online. Blogs & record labels immediately took notice and Italians Do It Better’s introduction to the pair was “I’ll Be By Your Side”, a shimmering Italo Disco track with ethereal vocals that hypnotized everyone who heard it. Johan’s elegant production was years ahead of what anyone else was doing at the time, & the elusive falsetto of the dreamlike singer was unforgettable.

In 2007, their debut album, Disco Romance, was revered by the press. The album was nominated as “Best Dance/Electronic Album of the Year” & was given a spot in Pitchfork’s Top 50 albums of 2007. Their sound was a unique take on the romantic club music of the mid 1980’s. At the time you could count the artists exploring this territory on one hand. Johnny Jewel began corresponding with Johan later that year resulting in Agebjörn’s remix of Glass Candy’s “The Chameleon“. The seminal After Dark compilation had come out that summer & the kindred spirits kept in touch.

Their debut album saw remixes by other likeminded producers like Lindstrøm, Tensnake, Junior Boys, CFCF, & Juan MacLean. In 2009, My Guilty Pleasure, picks up where Disco Romance left off. They collaborated with Electric Youth (known from the ”Drive” soundtrack) on their third album Somewhere Else in 2013.

Johan is a fixture on European dance floors collaborating with Lindstrøm, Glass Candy, Annie, Wolfram, Hercules & Love Affair, & more. In 2018 he produced the addictive Samantha Fox single “Hot Boy”. Sally is notoriously shy, remaining shrouded in anonymity. To this day she insists on recording her vocals alone in the studio & refuses to perform her songs live. In 2016, the duo went underground & released what was thought to have been their final single.

Working in deep seclusion over the last half decade, they recorded “Sad Cities”, a gorgeous bouquet of pure electronic bliss mixed by Johan Agebjörn & Johnny Jewel. Today, the enigmatic duo share “Forget About You”, the latest in a series of flawless releases.

Dear Summer Love
I Can’t Forget Your Face
Moon Lit The Sky
The World Was A Lonely Place
But You Held My Hand
I Took You Everywhere
Showed You My Town
Showed You I Really Care
Baby Don’t Go
Don’t Leave Here Alone
I Miss You So
I Cry When I’m On My Own
Please Don’t Forget
Forget About Me My Friend
Oh How Can I Forget About You
Forget About How No One Touches Like You
Forget About The Times We Had
Seems Like Yesterday
But Now As I Watch The Snow Outside
Thinking Of You Wish You Were By My Side
Stranger In The Night
How Can I Forget About You
Living My Life Forever So Blue
You Turned It All Around
Oh That Precious Day
You Know I Could Wish My Life Away
For One More Time
You Changed It All That Day
I Just Can’t Forget About You Today
Hate How All My Memories Fades Away
To Leave You Behind Has Never Crossed My Mind
