Vigiland was a Swedish house duo consisting of Claes Remmered Persson and Otto Pettersson from the Swedish community Västervik, Sweden.[1] Their first single "Bouncer" became popular on Spotify when it was released in late 2013. Upon releasing their Melbourne Bounce-influenced single "UFO", it made the top 10 of Spotify's most played songs. With the release of their single "Shots & Squats", Vigiland achieved number-ones in Scandinavia over summer and autumn 2015. "Shots & Squats" also became popular in Latin America due to Vine and after it was used as the theme for the MTV series SuperShore. In 2016, Vigiland released "Pong Dance",[2][3] which reached number 2 in Sweden.

In October 2024, Vigiland has been disbanded and moved on as Soda Music. As proved from the YouTube comments on Soda's new podcast by the name of "Tech This Out", they technically confirmed that the Vigiland term is now dead, and the release "Island" with Raaban and Jonas Wallin is their final single.[4]
