Born out of a freezing Stockholm studio with a broken heater and curdled oat milk, this track somehow captures the exact opposite: it’s warm, fizzy, a little cheeky, and totally escapist. With a beat that could shimmy its way down a Côte d’Azur boardwalk and a chorus that lodges itself in your brain like sunscreen in your ears, “Summer Kissin’” is the kind of vintage pop that feels like it’s always existed. It’s also the kind of song you play three times in a row before realising you’re dancing while holding laundry.
There’s a certain lemonade-stand energy here — sweet, slightly tangy, and served with a wink. You can hear the duo’s love for Swedish prog bubbling under the surface, but it’s all delivered with a Parisian gloss and a disco nod. Philippa Magnusson (aka Bluephox) and Michelle Amkoff aren’t trying to be mysterious about it. They’re here to channel your heatwave daydreams and put them on tape. And that line — “Toulon don’t make me wait too long” — sticks out like a passport stamp on a song that’s otherwise pure fantasy.
Vocally, there’s an effortless charm at play. It’s the kind of delivery that sounds both carefree and just a little sad — like someone smiling through a goodbye. And as with their earlier singles — “Human Touch” and “Buy Your Love” — the production walks the tightrope between playful and polished. They’re clearly not interested in chasing trends; they’re chasing a feeling. And they’ve caught it.
About Pom Femme:
Behind all this summer sparkle is a very Swedish kind of brilliance. Pom Femme aren’t new to the game. Michelle’s cut her teeth producing and engineering alongside Patrik Berger, while Philippa’s built her own world as Bluephox. Together, they’re not reinventing the wheel — they’re reupholstering it in velvet and wheeling it into a French film from 1974. With press nods from Sweden to the international stage, and editorial love from Spotify, they’re quietly (but confidently) becoming the kind of band that makes grey days feel warmer.
