  1. https://fb.watch/cPmGL393eV/ In 1994, imagine being the biggest band from little Sweden and doing the impossible. But to have your own safety shook to the core and have the dark reality happen.. You would think going to number one in the US would be let's celebrate.. But for Ace of base, it would be the end after a crazed fan broke into the home of Berggren home and took the family by knife point demanding Linn, She wasn't there, but Jenny said it could have been much worse as her family was dead asleep but woke up to Jenny screaming. That fan is banned from entering Sweden forever. But, Jenny said they just did what roxette and ABBA failed to do. Top both the hot 100 and the Top 200 albums chart In the US, literally even being honest I'm in the hospital after almost being ********. And Arista was like you didn't die, let's party. Linn realized the US music industry actually only cared about money. And not actually humanity.. This led to a very intentional removal which the band obligated but Clive Davis was not happy, he forced Linn to record Everytime it Rains. Jonas said right there. Linn was done.. She disappeared back into the anonymity she desperately craved for and according to Jonas to achieve this, Linn changed her appearance as her face is to recognizable and so is her voice.. So she went a route to prevent being noticed.. As for as reunion Jenny said as a family there's lots to celebrate, but musically the group is done even Ulf and Jonas states people want a reunion, but it can't happen cos the one thing the fans want is Linn, and that's never gonna happen. So the hidden gems is our way to say here's some new music.. Ulf even states the 2010 album the golden ratio with Clara And Julia (Clara is Clara Mae) was a horrible mistake and very disrespectful to our image, the girls dressing provocative was something that we never did, he admits part of that reason was the girls were sisters to Jonas, but we were about the music and looking back we became about the image with that line up, which we weren't that.. So golden ratio was a big regret..
  2. A huge concert in Poland is happening tomorrow with Ace of Base and several other big Europop and eurodance acts, but the people of poland are begging them to pull out saying this concert looks like a good thing, but it's actually supporting a very huge bad issue for Poland. Some of the comments are saying doing this event is basically supporting genocide for our people, everybody is being lied to and used as a Pawn for this horrible event. @Easy There do you know the full story and how this event is actually horrible for Poland in the first place.
  3. In, 1995 Max Martin would have his debut on the hot 100, and it wasn't a backstreet boys song (The boys have been adamant saying if it wasn't for The Spice girls and wannabe being embraced by radio, they and teen pop probably wouldn't have happened in the US). But Ace of base, holds the distinction of being his first major pop and club hit in the US (he didn't write any of the songs, his mentor denniz pop didn't believe in songwriting, citing their version of English would never work). But Beautiful life written by Jonas Jonas Berggren and Billy Steinberg peaked at #15 on the hot 100, and number one on the dance club charts. Ulf said in 2018, it was very much Techno and electronic while being huge in the clubs in the US, radio was very reluctant cos it didn't fit anything at the time when the US was very r&B and hip hop oriented, the European pop sound is very different than the US Pop sound. But it went top 15 off the strength of the sales of the single. They recorded a Spanish version but as Linn explained, it was translated wrong by the guy who sings in Spanish cos he was high. It was abandoned due to the lyrics being translated wrong but you can hear a clip of the Spanish version.. The track was so successful despite peaking at number 15, it was the 92nd most popular song of 1996 on the hot 100. @Prachi
  4. Jenny Berggren performing in 90s Festivals as Jenny from Ace of Base, was interrupted by the host, to say the label executive of Playground music is here to present something to you. Playground Music Scandinavia over took the group's original independent Danish label Mega Records, Copenhagen.. Being presented with an updated sales of 50 Million as he said next year brings Ace of Base to 30 years since The Sign was released (the only time A swedish act actually had the top single and album in the US in 1994). Jenny is immediately almost crying seeing the photo of herself along with her Brother Jonas, and Sister Linn (who protested the global fame since day one and everybody in the group agreed to slowly phase her out, they kept their word by the Time "Da Capo " came out their fourth and final studio album under the original line up she rarely had a presence in the group, and when the 2007 reunion tour happened they announced she was no longer a member and hasn't been one for quite some time). Due to the plaque only representing the original line up, that means the line up of the Golden ratio with Club icon Clara Mae actually doesn't exist. Ulf declared that album as a mistake cos it nearly costed Ulf a really good friend in Jenny and Jonas a huge disownment by his sister. And the fans was upset as well, since it was a family act. To have girls dressing kind of provocative, which normally they don't mind, but given how 3/4 of the band were actually full blooded family members, yeah that didn't go so well seeing Clara and Julia in lingerie. That wasn't our image at all to the fans. @Acer @Prachi
  5. In their Hometown of Gothenburg (Goteburg), Sweden, tech noir later changed to Ace of Base (Ace being the master and their Base being the studio. So in other words since the wrote and produced a lot of their material they dubbed themselves Master of Studio) The first concert had a member firing he chose to see the rolling stones the same night of the bands first gig, Ulf "Buddha" ekberg a family friend and Dating Jenny Berggren then, Jenny, her brother Jonas known as Joker and their sister Linn with family friend Buddha was about to go on a ride that few swedish acts get to achieve global success, slow..but it would happen as they would be the top global act of 1994, with Happy Nation/ The Sign (US, Canada, Latin America and Japan (Basically Arista records). The Sign would be the top album worldwide and in the US, and The title track to the American album would be the top song of 1994, they sold more records than Music Box by Mariah Carey in the US, she had to settle for the second most popular album of 94, and again in 96, with Jagged little pill by Alanis Morissette, Carey's daydream was #2 top seller in the states. It definitely seemed in the 90s it was very easier for international acts to break with great record label push and support. 93 Ace of Base Arista/BMG (Clive turned them down initially but later recanted when he heard All that she wants in vacation in Europe where it was a massive hit, he signed a US contract with their Danish label Mega, good at first, but would turn sour in 98) @Acer 95 Alanis Morrisette Maverick and Madonna made sure this was gonna be the defining album of the 90s it was, album of the year, and The top selling album of the 90s decade in the US with 16 Million copies sold alone in the states. Spice girls 97 Virgin Records/EMI waiting til 97 so the Spice girls can crack the US was probably the best thing ever, 4 Months to promote and push resulted in girl power conquering the US and Backstreet boys credits them for allowing their breakthrough in their home country, where they were already superstars in Europe as well as NSYNC, so the girls allowed the breakthrough in teen pop and the cultural shift that was extremely necessary to allow Britney spears to actually have the success as the queen of the latest teen pop revival.. However not all international acts was able to crack Through after the Spice girls, despite opening for Britney spears in her first tour, British dance pop group Steps failed to become tomorrow's flavor if the Spice girls was yesterdays flavor as described by the New York times on their review of Step one, and of course S Club 7, y'all watched the TV show every Saturday morning but failed to realize they actually had Music right.. Happy 31 years to the last big Swedish invasion to happen in the US.
  6. Back in July to celebrate their 30th anniversary. The third biggest selling swedish act. Ace of Base dropped an 11 CD/DVD box set. Containing the 4 Albums plus all the club remixes, Music videos and their concert from 1990 when they debuted. In 2015, they released Hidden Gems. Rare tracks, b sides and Japanese tracks. iTunes got two bonus tracks. The box set for a second disc of hidden gems and remixes created by fans. Well today. That second disc of Hidden Gems was released 23 unreleased tracks, it also an early version of The Sign before it became the hit we know enjoy. The best of 90s Swedish pop..
