Soft Rock / Psych artist Telos Vision release 70's yacht rock inspired EP 'The End' Released on November 1st via Icons Creating Evil Art
Teodor Boogh, with the alias Telos Vision, is often seen working with well known artists and musicians in Sweden. Having worked with bands such as Goat, Graveyard, and toured with The Soundtrack Of Our Lives and Graveyard this past year, Telos Vision is now ready to unveil a new exciting collaboration and EP. First out was the single 'Til The End which was released August 28 and now follow that up with new single Dream (Oct. 18th) before now dropping the EP 'The End' on Nov. 1st on his new label home Icons Creating Evil Art.
The EP includes the new song Confuse Me which has also been chosen as the focus track for the release. Teodor explains the meaning of it like this:
- "Confuse me is about feeling like you're a boring person to live with, and that you're just a burden. And it can feel confusing that someone still wants to be with you... It's obviously a good thing, but it's hard to feel happy about it when you're feeling down. Musically this song is the most pop-ish song on the EP. I really enjoyed recording all the backing vocals. And the outro jam is lots of fun as well!"

Multi-Instrumentalist Teodor Boogh from Gothenburg has been making a name for himself by collaborating with people from Goat, The Soundtrack Of Our Lives, Graveyard, Little Dragon, The Hellacopters and many others. Telos Vision is now releasing the EP “The End” recorded in Little Dragon’s studio together with Erik Bodin and Fredrik Wallin from the band.
In 2023 Teodor Boogh put out the full length debut album “Traces Of Light”, and went on a two month tour with Graveyard to celebrate the release. The album got great reviews in Swedish and international press and was nominated for an award at Manifestgalan (also known as the Swedish indie Grammy). In the breaks between touring Teodor spent time with Erik and Fredrik from Little Dragon in their studio, recording new music. The collaboration led to some luxurious tunes inspired by the 70’s yacht rock era, but still with the same new indie vibe, well produced atmospheric rock core that Telos Vision is known for. Teodor shares his thoughts on the new EP:
- "This was such a fun and inspiring project. Working with Erik and Fredrik really brought something new out of me. We definitely aimed for a luxurious production inspired by the 70's yacht rock kind of thing, which is something a bit different for me. But it's all mixed with the guitars, synths and stuff that I think is the core of Telos Vision. And I really feel like the songs are mine and that this was exactly what I wanted to do. I explored another musical side of me and I'm so happy to finally share it!"
and he had this to add about the collaboration with Erik and Fredrik:
“I asked Erik and Fredrik to just do their thing and I wanted them to really put their touch on the production. So I just came with some rough demos and we jammed and played together, and found ways to bring each song to life. It was really inspiring to let people who are such great musicians in sort of another musical realm than what I’m used to working with, bring new things to the table and create something fresh and interesting!”
