Huachuma Dub - @ Antaris Festival 2014

Old-School SuomiSounds from the Beyond... 

All tracks were written between 1997-2004

Weird Creatures 2011

I entered the circle in a summer ritual and a man was playing. My body started to move and my soul started to sing. I heard many asked him what he was playing and that his answer was "rhythm". So that is what he gave me...

Greetings from the land of eternal spring!

Recorded while living and working at a hidden retreat in southern Ecuador. Recorded for one purpose only: hiking the mountains with Huachuma...

Mein Dzei 2016

Together with Random Records we've made this beast of a compilation. With KWERK I wanted to create a genre within genres, where deep forest psychedelia meets funk, punk and a leftfield kind of mindset. Simply what Bäverdisco always was about...

https://randomrecords.bandcamp.com/album/kwerk
 
To complete this delayed two year project I recorded this journey of highest quality kwerkiness, including some of the artists on the compilation. 


KWERK is released on the 15th of February 2016. All the profits go straight to Survival International, an NGO supporting indigenous peoples around the world. You can buy it on Beatport, Beatspace and on https://randomrecords.bandcamp.com/album/kwerk. Limited CD-edition is available, with beautiful artwork by Whrikk.

Immense amount of gratitude to Dark El Kante, Gojja/Makadam, Captain Kirk, Yhtiöt, Ziog, Ocelot, Discolin, Bechamel Boyz, Salakavala, Eat Static, Whrikk and Monno Dunkel for your passion, expertise and support.

KWERK 2016

A trip down memory lane. Recorded in december 2011, while living by the Norwegian Atlantic coast. Winter darkness, constant fog and aggressive winds - my cure was studio time, tropical fungi and these joooozy froots.

Bäverian Froots 2011

Recorded at the beautiful Human Evolution Festival in Italy late august 2016. Following the theme of the festival I created a journey from where it all began, through our species past, present and inevitable future. Hope you'll enjoy!

Please support the artists and labels who dedicate their lives to fulfill your souls.

Anthropos Logos - @ Human Evolution Festival 2016

As weird as it sounds - I was raised to the sound of the early 90's ambient techno scene. Although I was still being breastfed when "Little Fluffy Clouds" hit the charts, the analogue warmth, acid bleeps, gentle pulse and curious yet deep psychedelia of the golden years 1990 to 1994 always felt so strangely familiar.

So how and when did I fall in to this rabbit hole? 2001, 13 years old, buying any record I could get ahold of with "entrancing" music. Hearing more made me crave for more, which made me hear more that got me craving for more. Napster. Kazaa. DC++. Discogs... 
Contemporary trance music felt stiff, uninspired and cheesy, while that 90's Eye Q, Harthouse, Platipus, Superstition and all this Goatrance took me so deep. Especially those who dared to bring the tempo down. So hypnotizing. So challenging. So rewarding... Levitation music....

The last months I've sold off my record collection, and while digitalising the music I've sold I've re-discovered many of these psychedelic wonders. This is truly sacred music for me, music that has been with me for so many travels the last 10-15 years. So I invite you to sit down on your magic carpet and explore space from a time long forgotten.

With love,
Sim

A Spacetime Odyssey 2016

Soulrise 2017

A very personal and eclectic collection of love songs from the vinyl collection of my past. Many stories could be told about the music, the different styles and my own relation. But I'll spare you....

Stay Balearic,
Sim

DJ-set @ Forest Star 2018

Musik skall byggas utav glädje!

Recorded around christmas 2018 as a nod, ode and shoutout to one of my long time selector heroes Mixmaster Morris. I first became familiar with him in high school ca 2004-05, hearing his early 90's classics as Dreamfish and The Irresistible Force. But it wasn't until around 2012, when my own DJ-adventure was already living it's own life, where I started to notice his true brilliance: behind the decks. As a hobby music historian/anthropologist I loved digging into his older and newer mixes (easily found online), exploring his vast library of music and learning that it can be completely OK to hear a Minnie Riperton ballad next to Plaid next to an old, dusty house track next to an Adrian Sherwood dub beast. Don't think in terms of genres, think in flow, think in the tidal waves that make up the human spirit. Spontaneity. Joy, sadness, depth, memories, experimentality, playfulness, and back to joy again. Always come back to joy. Perhaps this isn't the words Morris would use himself, but this is my understanding of his wordless teaching. It has been a revelation to me, and something I've been trying to adapt to my own art ever since. And for that I'm forever grateful.

In the summer of 2018 I joined my friend and DJ colleague Anders Navigare to Ozora Festival. Quite accidentally the two of us received a drop of pure and very potent acid in the moment Mixmaster Morris started playing at the Dome stage. Let me tell you it was quite possibly the most powerful musical experience in my life. I thought I knew the music world of Mixmaster Morris, but I guess you can't really say that until you've been tripping under his command. Outside the Dome an enormously violent thunderstorm was causing havoc over the festival, but inside we had the most loving and blissful music experience, grooving to D'Angelo, DJ Koze, Kamaal Williams, Flying Lotus, The Orb/Sun Electric and gosh, did my heart melt to the sounds of "hey teachers, leave those kids alone!!!"? I kid you not, I bursted into tears twice over these 4 hours! Forever imprinted into my DNA.

I bow my head and wish to express my deepest gratitude and respect for you Mixmaster Morris, if you ever read this. Thanks for all the inspiration throughout the years.

Saturn Return 2020

One of my greatest memories of last summer was closing the main stage at Andra Halvan in Norway on an insanely hot Sunday afternoon in July. The organizers gave me the blessing to do it my way, resulting in a 5 hour session that still gives me the chills just thinking about it. Many people asked me then and afterwards about the music, but for some stupid reason I forgot to record the set.

Fast forward to last week, when I found one of the USB-sticks used at the gig, still with a music library named "Andra Halvan 2019". Since there's little to no DJ-activity for me in these strange times I decided to record something out of that vibe. Impossible to re-create the golden moments of last summer, but hopefully enjoyable for your private headphone/hi-fi pleasure of summers to come. Please play loud!

Orange Sunshine 2020

I had a little boat 
I called it Life 
Once I went out 
And never came back. 
All of a sudden 
There was a big wind 
And waves like mountains 
Many things raced through my mind 
And in the lonely chanting of the sea 
I heard the echoes of eternity 
And in the fantasy of cloud and sky 
I saw the One who lives 
While all things die 
And I was swallowed by the sea 
And lost in the deep 
And washed up on the shore.
 
When I awakened 
The storm was over 
And the sea was calm 
It was strange and wonderful 
Like seeing the world 
And seeing through the world.

And when I told the people in the village 
That I went out and never came back 
They all laughed and called me The Wanderer 
And I laughed with them 
They didn’t know 
They were the wanderers 
And so I found my way 
And found my home
