mikey are one of the Copenhagen names that recently landed on our radar. Led by Maiken Rask and Henrik Petersen, the duo write, produce, mix and release their melancholic alt pop from a small studio, where they keep things intimate and instinctive. After introducing themselves with “don’t wait” in March 2025, they released their debut EP first notes earlier this year, and they’re now already moving into a new era with their latest offering.
Their new single “blue+green” moves with a brighter pulse while still carrying a soft trace of melancholy. First sketched out on a high speed train between Florence and Bologna, the track turns overstimulation, disconnection and longing into something light and strangely radiant. Its hypnotic melodies are carried by rolling indie breaks, deep bass and Maiken’s vocals, which float gently above it all. In the end, “blue+green” feels like an exercise in minimalism, with every element placed just where it needs to be, leaving the whole thing sounding delicate, weightless and evanescent. Stream the track below, or via our daily updated playlist Forecast Tape, which showcases the most notable new releases.
