Pro Yodeler, as the name says, yodels, but not the polite, tame versions from the European Alps or in American country music. It is, instead, the techno and yodeling of his newest featured single, “Club 310.”
“My music is meant for clubbing,” said Pro Yodeler, whose real name is Alex Palmgren. “My yodeling is meant for people to go and enjoy and party and drink.”
Pro Yodeler started yodeling at age 7. “When I started, I thought, ‘This is so cool!’”
He has worked ever since to become the world’s fastest yodeler. In 2023, at the world championships in Munich, he achieved that goal.
“Now,” he said, “I want to bring yodeling into a whole new generation.”
To that end, he has fused techno and yodeling.
“I am the only one in the world who is bringing techno and yodeling to the world, and I am doing it for this generation, and it is time for the world to know who I am and what I'm all about.”
He said “Club 310” and its mix of yodeling and techno is a new thing, a thing like no other.
“Techno and yodeling is one of the most unique things in the world, and nobody besides me specializes in it.”
He began entering competitions soon after he started and has been competing since, for more than 15 years now.
“As I started getting into competitions, I failed, but I always brought myself back up and said, ‘No, I’m going to be one of the best yodelers in the whole world.’”
He continued, “I take pride in my yodeling. It is very fascinating to me, and human vocals can be used in very artistic ways, especially in yodeling.”
His vocal speed is just one aspect of the artistry in yodeling, as it is in another musical genre, rap.
“There are rappers who are very good at that, but my thing is yodeling,” he said.
And, he declares, his main purpose is bringing yodeling to an audience that doesn’t know it.
“There are many techniques to yodeling. Most people only focus on one type when they yodel, but it’s very important to learn all different techniques,” he said, demonstrating a couple of them in a phone interview.
He identifies 12 different types of yodeling and says that to develop speed, a yodeler needs to learn all 12.
“A lot of people focus on one type, maybe two, possibly three, and they can put those into a song. But in techno and yodeling, I can put all 12 versions into one song.”
He developed his techno and yodel specialty because, “I wanted to be known to do something that nobody else does, or nobody else has ever done. So, I came up with techno and yodeling.”
“I’ve been faster than a lot of people before, but with everything I’ve been doing, I’m finally ready to put it all out and have the world know that Pro Yodeler, Alex Palmgren, is now the world’s top upcoming and fastest yodeler.”
He has performed live, and his music is playing in clubs.
“People are dancing to it,” he said.
And that is why he makes music, so that people can party to it.
“I want to go out and perform and get into the world and let people know that there is a new generation in yodeling. I want to get it in with club music and get people partying to it.”
The heart of his music, he said, is “the beauty of the vocalism.”
“And I want to put that in with techno and just yodel.”
