Jaeger Mix #190
November 9th, 2022

It’s been a minute since we’ve had any news from Olefonken on these pages, and that’s a minute too long. The drummer, producer, synth wizard, label owner and DJ, is a constant source of new music, whether from himself, his band Hubbabubbaklubb, his DJ sets, or his label, Snorkel and even though we might not have heard much from him recently, he’s still crafting and facilitating good music. It’s like the old adage, if a tree falls in the woods and there’s no-one to hear it, does it make a sound. Yes it does and just like that you can be guaranteed, that Olefonken is tinkering on some project as I type this.

Since we last had Olefoken on these pages, he’s re-issued his classic record, Ubuntu Tutu, put out an entire LP of Hubba remixes and a host of new music from his table of Snorkel residents. We haven’t had him in the booth as often as in the past,  but in that he is still a unique presence in Oslo.

For this edition of the Jaeger mix, he takes us deep into the night, with a mix that builds on the energy of each track, as he pursues the dance floor. Those melodic strains of his own music follows enigmatic channels to other musical territories. From balearic isles to squirmy IDM and towards high energy House, Olefonken traces a unique path through his record collection.

It’s time to catch up with Olefonken as we sink into this mix.

10TRAX #041 comes from Olefonken, a norwegian producer based in London. With two releases this year, Olefonken is having a good 2016, however he’s not a newcomer. In 2013 he released a track, Ubuntu Tutu, alongside an EP with the band hubbabubbaklubb; and in 2014 he was selected for the Tokyo edition of the prestigious RBMA.
 
Following the path of other norwegian producers, his tracks are influenced by spacey disco, how ever his mixes offer a greater range. This 10TRAX presents a plethora of tunes that go from big pop names like ELO and Stevie Wonder and cult tracks like “Le Troublant Témoignage De Paul Martin”. The Norwegian DJ tells us “these 10TRAX are a selection of some old time favorites for lazy sunday afternoons, in other words something to hang your hat on! It also contains a preview of our next release with hubbabubbaklubb coming out later this year on Snorkel Records. Hope you guys like it.”
 
From Undermad we would like to thank Olefonken for this mix and we recommend you to keep an eye out for all his future releases!

Jaeger Mix #017
October 9th, 2016

Over the past few weeks we’ve become content again in the fact that a familiar face is appearing in Jæger’s booth. Olefonken is back ladies and gentlemen and after a short stint in London, during which time he released the amazing Quaaludes EP, he is back at Jæger assuming his residency amongst Celius, Oskar Pask and Ricky Late. To mark his return Ivaylo pushed him into the booth for the Æ mix and boy was it a welcomed sound. Olefonken’s charismatic diversity in the booth shines through yet again, calling on elements of Funk, Disco, House and Afrobeat, all tied together with the DJ’s distinguished ability to find a clear path from the past to the present. There’s a quirky charm to the personality behind the music and his selections, something universal that he expresses here through swing beats and beguiling melodies that conspire around low slung tempos for this particular mix. It’s a mix as easy as a Sunday morning… or a Wednesday afternoon and it will certainly keep us in good company until the next Æ mix comes comes to town.
