Jaeger Mix #112
September 23rd, 2018

After a night of live, original music Torje Fagertun Spilde swaps the synths for the decks and dons his DJ cap as Third Attempt for Ivaylo’s Jæger Mix. Combining the tracks of others on this occasion, Torje still manages to capture the Third Attempt sound in this mix, but with tracks that border on a funkier edge. 

Keeping it deep and luscious,  Third Attempt cultivates a very tranquil mood vibe on his Æmix and Jæger, DJ debut. Guitars and sloshing synth basses bring that funk element to tracks that err on the side of downtempo balearic. Intergalactic synths and grainy surfaces like space dust pile on and float from one track to the next as Third Attempt ties a red thread through the entire mix.

“New Canvas” by Fouk and “In the Genes” by Hot Toddy stand out in this mix, and each steps up the energy from one moment to the next, to a point where you can almost feel the dance floor expand at each level.  You can read an in-depth interview with Third Attempt here (http://jaegeroslo.no/the-third-times-a-charm-introducing-third-attempt) with the questions below filling in some of the blanks and providing an insight into his Jæger mix. Keep this one on your radar…

JM112 - Third Attempt

The Jaeger Mix is Oslo’s monthly ritual for deep listening and dance floor exploration, a midweek club night that doubles as a living archive of the city’s underground.
Taking place on select Wednesdays, the series pairs Jaeger resident Ivaylo with a rotating cast of DJs, producers, and live acts, capturing the sound of the night and preserving it as part of Jaeger’s ongoing story.
Each session is recorded in the club, followed by an interview with the guest, and later published as a feature on jaegeroslo.no - In this way, the Jaeger Mix lives beyond the dance floor — a document of Oslo’s electronic music culture, framed both in sound and in words.
Guiding the series is Ivaylo, a Bulgarian-born, Oslo-based DJ, producer, and curator. A long-standing Jaeger resident, label manager for Full Pupp, and founder of Lab Cleaning Jams, he has spent decades shaping Nordic club culture with his deep, soulful, and uncompromising approach to house and techno. His role in the Jaeger Mix is less about the spotlight and more about curation — weaving his own sets together with those of guests to tell the evolving story of the dance floor.
The Jaeger Mix stands as both a celebration of the present and a chronicle for the future, mapping Oslo’s nightlife one night, one mix, and one conversation at a time.
