Kleerup ft. Titiyo: 'Longing For Lullabies'
Andreas Kleerup mastered the art of break-up disco on 2007's 'With Every Heartbeat', a collaboration with Robyn that glided all the way to the top of the UK singles chart. 'Longing For Lullabies', first released as a single in Sweden a year ago, could perhaps be viewed as a sequel to that song, but if so, it's that rare sequel that matches the original.

Featuring vocals from Titiyo - Neneh Cherry's half-sister - it's a gorgeously sad electropop ballad about breaking up, moving on and accepting that a small piece of the love that died still lingers. As Titiyo delivers the affecting melody over Kleerup's mixture of percolating beats and strings, you might even find your top lip quivering a bit. Don't beat yourself up about it - the same thing happened to us.
