There are quite a few releases stacked up for 2016, and we’ll be starting with a Prins Thomas edit of the track “Hellbent” to be included on Bergen techno label Ploink’s first anniversary EP (out of three planned this year). The EP will be available on D&M-mastered vinyl from February 22nd, and you can hear snippets of all tracks in the player above.

Illumination re-issued
Illumination’s “The Way Out Is The Way” is now available on Optimo Trax’ “Drum Attack EP (Lost weapons from the 1990’s”). This vinyl re-issue was originally planned for release in October 2014, but was delayed until now due to problems with manufacturing (not so surprising, as it’s pretty bass-heavy, though we’re yet to hear the full details from Optimo HQ). In any way you can now finally pick it up through your favourite vinyl store, like Clone Records. There’s also a nice review of the 12″ over at Juno Plus. Illumination was a collaboration project consisting of Per Martinsen and Nicholas Sillitoe, who also did a string of remixes under their Chilluminati guise in the late nineties/early noughties.
‘In love we fall EP’ now also available digitally
My ‘In love we fall EP’ is now also available through most digital outlets for downloads and streaming, but be sure to also secure a copy of the 12″ vinyl edition before it sells out!
New 12″ – In love we fall EP
My new EP of house tracks is now available on 12″ vinyl through Clone Distribution, and will probably be hitting your local record shop in less than a week’s time. Make sure to go order your copy now!
New exclusive track on Bandcamp
The third track in the ‘Norwegische Künstler Verpisst Euch’ series is now available exclusively through my Bandcamp page.
Illumination goes way out on Optimo Trax
The mighty Optimo will release an old goldie from our Illumination catalogue on their new “Drum Attack” EP of “secret DJ-weapons”. The track in question is “The way out is the way”, which is taken from the B-Side of a 10inch single initially released through Music Man Records back in 1998. Quite a different affair than the more deep and housey material we released under the Illumination moniker, the tune had Optimo’s JD Twitch in for a surprise when he received the master and realized the original vinyl was intended to be played on 33rpm, and not 45rpm as he’d been doing all this time. The release date is set to late October 2014, and you can preview the EP in the player above. There’s also some more info on the release over at Juno Plus.
New track “First Run”
Here’s the second track in the new series “Norwegische Künstler Verpisst Euch”. Available exclusively through Bandcamp.
New remix 12″ out now
The new remix 12″ including mixes from Optimo’s JD Twitch and Full Pupp’s Blackbelt Andersen is now available on vinyl through Clone Distribution. The digital version will only be available from July 7th, but as you read this it probably means you’re genuinely interested in my stuff and can head over to my Bandcamp page and get high quality files as an earlybird special offer.
UK events in April
I’ll be heading over to London in the beginning of next month for the screening of Kostya Shamshin’s “Ghost Radio Hunter” at the National Portrait Gallery on Friday April 4th, followed by a DJ-gig/album launch at Big Chill House later on the same night. Both events are part of Noise of Art’s month of events celebrating 100 years of live electronic music, which you can read more about here.
‘Everything is connected’ out now!
The new album compilation ‘Everything is connected is out today. Get it from your favourite online store, or from my Bandcamp page. Tracklist and preview in the player above.
