Be Svendsen

Techno, Electronic | 2014 was the year that electronica’s cognoscenti fell for Be Svendsen. Following the success of live performances at Fusion and BOOM, the Danish musician has become well known within the global festival scene and proponent of a uniquely organic, genre-bending sound that could best be described as ‘Tarantino Techno’. Like Tarantino, Svendsen’s art has the distinction of being rooted in both the familiar and the obscure as well as the playful and the ironic. It's a fusion of syncopated beats, rendered vocals, world-music, a-typical sampling and live instrumentals, synthesised by the mediative qualities of repetition.
