Trainspotters is a Swedish hip-hop duo known for their innovative sound and socially conscious lyrics. Comprised of rapper George Kaplan and producer Academics (also known as Rewind), the group emerged from the town of Umeå in the late 2000s. They have steadily gained a reputation in their native Sweden and beyond for their fusion of classic hip-hop beats with a distinctly Nordic twist. Trainspotters' music often integrates reflective storytelling, clever wordplay, and a touch of humor, setting them apart in the Scandinavian hip-hop scene.

With a string of releases that have captured the attention of the underground music community, Trainspots have carved out a niche for themselves with their unique take on the genre. Their discography includes thought-provoking tracks like "Tyler Durden," which showcases their penchant for cultural references, and "Festivallåten," an anthem resonating with the energy of live performances. "RGE" and "Matlåten" further display their versatility and ability to connect with listeners on various levels. Their live track "Traingroggers (Live @ East FM)" provides a glimpse into their electrifying stage presence and ability to engage with audiences in real-time. With their latest offerings such as "Splash," "Bryt," "Disconnect," and "Lucid Dreamin," Trainspotters continue to push the boundaries of hip-hop while staying true to their roots in the genre's rich tradition.
