Career

Rådström got his start writing songs in the basement of his home. Upon hearing his music, his friends were impressed by his creativity and encouraged him to reach out to various record labels in order to share his music with a larger audience.

Impatient with the pace of the labels and with an eagerness to share the project with the world, Neiked and his friends took matters into their own hands, formed the Neiked Collective, and released the music independently.

Victor is one of the founding parts of the independent label Neiked Collective. The collective has since appeared on shows such as BBC Live Lounge and on Scandinavian talk shows, showcasing the young producer's work in an unorthodox way.[4]

His second single "Sexual" (2016) reached a peak position of number 32 on the Swedish Singles Chart and number five on the UK Singles Chart.[5] "Sexual" was influenced by Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing"; Rådström came up with the line "I'm feeling sexual so we should be sexual", with that thought forming the base of the song.[3]

In 2018 he released the single "How Do I Find You" featuring Swedish singer and childhood friend Miriam Bryant,[6] which features "a woozy, dusk-drenched pulse".[7]

Neiked released the single "Sometimes" in November 2019, which was called a "big and brassy declaration, [with] engaging production and west-coast warmth".[8]

gollark: I finally got round to labelling all the bugfixes in potatOS (or at least the more important ones in core code which still have some evidence of being there) to help explain to people debugging it what they do.
gollark: ... why tie your entire domain to some platform you write projects for?
gollark: Also, two letter ones are *countries*, so you're relying on *two* countries not doing stupid things instead of just one.
gollark: There's not much point in another more expensive domain.
gollark: Keep cc.znepb.me.
