I suspect Scandinavia - especially Sweden - is good at pop #musicproduction precisely BECAUSE of its lack of defining characteristics. If the music isn't too weird or complex but the melodic and harmonic core is strong, it'll be palatable to more people.
In the United States, one genre with such a strong core is country music. When American country singers take that strong core and get rid of the fiddles, hats and boots, they often become quite popular.
