The discography of Basshunter, a Swedish singer-songwriter and DJ, consists of three studio albums, twelve singles and a number of other appearances on Warner Music Group/Hard2Beat.

Basshunter released his first albums, The Old Shit and The Bassmachine, through his own web site in 2002 and 2004 respectively. In April 2006 he signed his first contract with Warner Music, releasing his first single, "Boten Anna". In Scandinavia the song became a hit instantly and was the first ever Swedish language song to reach number one on the Dutch Top 40 Chart. His major label debut album, would chart all over Europe and launch him into the forefront of dance music.

Throughout 2007, Basshunter was working on a new album, titled Now You're Gone: The Album., the album is English reworkings of classic Basshunter songs. First single was a re-recording of "Boten Anna", titled "Now You're Gone" featuring entirely rewritten lyrics to appeal to a foreign market. The song subsequently charted at number one on the UK Singles Chart, and stayed there for 5 weeks. The second single release was "All I Ever Wanted" an English re-recording of "Vi sitter i Ventrilo och spelar DotA", in the vein of "Now You're Gone". The third single released was "Angel in the Night" followed by fourth single "I Miss You". Basshunter's fifth and final single from the album Now You're Gone: The Album was Walk On Water accompanied with a re-release of the album featuring new remixes plus a megamix video of the previous four singles from the Album.

Basshunter performed a new song titled "Every Morning" at the Dance Nation Tour in April 2009. It was released on September 28 followed by his fifth studio album Bass Generation and was released on 5 October 2009[1].
