and welcome to our homepage, this
Visa Röster is a Swedish vocal ensemble singing computer music, hymns and jazz - a cappella. Three CDs and a DVD from our successful concert in London.
Visa Röster performs a cappella, voices only, no instruments. Music has never been more comfortable! Swinging arrangements and jazzy arrangements performed in a professional way. And it sounds so good!
The name "Visa Röster" is Swedish (our main audience is Swedish), and translated it would be "Show Voices", where "visa" actually means "show", "tune" and "enlightened" at the same time. It's pretty hard to translate it, so we decided not to! We're living in the South of Sweden, in the cities of Malmö and Lund.

Visa Röster made a very short appearance on Swedish national TV on the 5th of December 2005. We sang together with computer music legend Ben Daglish and his band Stuck-in-the-80'ies. The TV show is called "Kontroll", and featured a report on musicians that are into Retro music.
Yes, it IS true. Visa Röster has released their fourth album "READY. Vocally too". It is the sequel of the much appreciated "*** Commodore 64 *** Vocally", and the release party was held in Copenhagen at the Copenhagen Retro Concert (read more below).
This is THE album for you retro music fans. With 18 well-known Commodore 64 game tunes, almost 70 minutes of a cappella and vocal glory. If you've ever played games such as Commando, Bomb Jack, Delta, Rambo, Wizball, M.U.L.E., Thrust, Roland's Rat Race, Caverns of Khafka, Formula 1 Simulator, Fairlight, Zoids, Thanatos or Last Ninja 3 - then this CD is for you.
With the help of award-winning remixers Makke, Larsec, Sumppi, DHS, O2 and Mahoney, not only the a cappella parts of the album but also the second half with vocals and instruments is candy for your ears.
You can order it on the Order CD page.
Copenhagen, the 5th of November 2005. We were participating in "Copenhagen Retro Concert" - singing computer game music!
Here are some 30-seconds sound clips from our CD "Vokalmusik på svenska":
The CD contains 17 tracks, almost an hour of comfortable a cappella singing! We'll happily send you the CD for a small amount of money. Please order on the Order CD page. This CD cannot be bought in any music store.
Beware that this CD contains singing for real. 90% of all newly produced music uses autotune, a mathematical algorithm for tuning voices with a computer to make it sound better-than-live. There are no such artificial robotic-voices on this CD, what you hear is not autotuned! More information of which songs are on the CD, you can find on this page The tunes.
We have a guest book as well, klick here to view it: The Guestbook

Yes, just before our live concert in London, we completed the CD *** Commodore 64 *** Vocally, computer game music from 1984-1991, a cappella.

"The best Commodore 64-remix CD in the World" according to the visitors at www.remix64.com in a voting with 11 other commercial CDs. (2005) |
A CD filled with lovely a cappella music, computer game music from 1984-1991. A rather amusing project, which we think you're going to like! Computers back then could only manage to play three notes at the same time, forcing composers to focus on melody, structure and flow - something that many people think is lacking in today's modern music! If you want a copy, order it here.
Here are some 30-seconds sound clips from our CD *** Commodore 64 *** Vocally:
And, for your entertainment, a complete song from the CD *** Commodore 64 *** Vocally:
 Sofia Åberg, feather light soprano |

 Hanna Kappelin, soothing soprano |
 Elsa Persson, swinging alto |
 Pex Tufvesson, pacekeeping tenor |
 Johannes Lindén, bullseye bass |
