Dubfire, Steve Bug, Kalkbrenner

Harald Bjork’s music is a naive and emotional, melodic type of minimal techno with a melancholic Scandinavian touch. His music can be described as a mixture between the gear-geek playfulness of Aphex Twin, the pop-influenced, melodic electronica of early Röyksopp spiced with minimal beats from Berlin and Cologne.
.
Harald made a name for himself with his release “Brus EP” on Traumschallplatten and his music is often appreciated by followers of labels such as Border Community, Kompakt and Cocoon. His records are played by DJ:s like James Holden, Sven Väth, Miss Kittin and Kieran Hebden (Four Tet) among others. In his live performances Harald uses a computer filled with chopped up feelings and a bunch of analogue machines and controllers to build up atmospheres of naive love and screaming frustration.

His sets take you on a journey diving into melancholic melodic adventures escalating in exploding breaks winding up in motorically beats.
