The Swedish Grammy nominated house duo Vigiland is the brain child of Claes Remmered Persson and Otto Pettersson from the small Swedish community Västervik, Sweden. Their first single 'Bouncer' quickly became very popular on Spotify when it was released in late 2013. By the time they released 'UFO' it was obvious that Vigiland brought something new to the party - something the crowd had been waiting for. The Melbourne Bounce flavoured track was an instant hit and quickly climbed the charts, after two weeks it had made it to the top 10 of Spotify's most played songs. With the release of their single 'Shots & Squats', Vigiland goes global. The single has been number one in Scandinavia over the summer and autumn 2015. 'Shots & Squats' was also placed #39 worldwide on spotify. Vigiland received huge support by one of the most successful person on Vine, "Logan Paul". Logan's Vine have reached over 42 million views. Shots & squats has also been heard all over Latin America, since the track is the official MTV anthem for a show called "SuperShore". Vigiland is back with a new single called 'Pong Dance' and it is a viral track already.
