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.

Lyrics:

Sugar

There's a vacuum in my head 
Better not get out of bed
Only room for distraction 
Thousand started interactions 
Yes, I’d love to take the risk
If it's safe to take it
I love the choice
when you’re the one that makes it

Chorus:
I want sugar
I want sugar all the time 
Short cuts and quick fixes 
Only want the highs
I want sugar
I want sugar all the time
I want sugar
Give me sugar
I want sugar
I want sugar

There's a car waiting outside 
But anywhere is too far
Come on give me headlines
I need some pictures to swipe 
There's a vacuum in my head My appetite is never fed
I don’t see it
If I just close my eyes

I want sugar
I want sugar all the time 
Short cuts and quick fixes 
Only want the highs
I want grapes with no stones
Have it ready made
Instant love
Have it served on a plate

I want sugar
I want sugar
Give me sugar
I want sugar

And it must be sweet Sweet
Super sweet

Chorus

This is my set from sunday evening at Camp Cosmic in Chemnitz two weeks ago. The original recording was a bit to distorted so this is a re-recording. xxx

Ora The Molecule - Here Comes The Hotstepper (Xmas Lullaby Version)

Put on your silk robe and pour a vermouth into a crystal goblet with a square of ice. Push open the deep red balcony curtain and look out over that city. It is the hour when the sky is purple and the lights are just starting to twinkle on. No need for words. The music says it all... with feeling.
