Ensamhushåll

**Ensamhushåll** is the brainchild of Swedish musician Henrik Oja, a DIY synth project blending brooding post-punk energy with icy coldwave textures. Emerging in the late 2000s from Gothenburg’s underground scene, Oja crafts minimalist, moody tracks using drum machines, raw synths, and deadpan Swedish vocals that linger on themes of urban loneliness and existential shrugs. Releases like *Demos 2007-2010* and *Ensamericana* showcase his knack for marrying lo-fi grit with darkly catchy hooks, while recent singles like *Elden* and *Släck alla bränder* lean into a more polished yet still primal sound. Ensamhushåll remains a cult favorite for fans of Scandinavian gloom-pop, reliably delivering music that feels like a midnight walk through empty streets.
