The Swedish invasion hit Portola Festival 2026 hard, with Robyn, Tove Lo, Zara Larsson, Swedish House Mafia and Lykke Li making a convincing case for Sweden’s outsized influence on pop and electronic music.
Lykke Li reunites with Belgian producer The Magician for the official remix of “Lucky Again,” more than a decade after their billion-stream collaboration on “I Follow Rivers” became one of the defining electronic tracks of its era. The new remix transforms the emotional standout from Lykke Li’s latest album The Afterparty into a euphoric melodic house anthem while launching a summer-long remix series featuring Horse Meat Disco, Only Fire, Rebecca & Fiona, Killen, and additional reworks from The Magician. The release follows renewed momentum for Lykke Li after Drake interpolated “I Follow Rivers” on “Janice STFU,” earning her first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 as a credited songwriter. Alongside the remix campaign, Lykke Li continues her international festival run with performances across Europe, Mexico City, and Austin City Limits, while The Magician builds on a career spanning Coachella, Tomorrowland, Printworks London, and collaborations with Purple Disco Machine, A-Trak, and more.
