Biography

I have been creating electronic music for 30 years, primarily using computers—going all the way back to the first Steinberg Cubase, an Amiga computer, propellerheads Rebirth, sampler keyboards like the Roland S-50, Groovebox 505 and various MIDI controllers like UC-33e.

Today, I work with both Mac and PC, utilizing a wide range of VSTs, including U-he synths, the Arturia Collection, and Native Instruments. My DAW of choice is Ableton Live, which I have used since version 2, along with Ableton Push 3, various MIDI controllers and keyboards, the SOMA LYRA-8, Pro-1, MiniFreak, DrumBrute and Deepmind 12, as well as effect pedals.

Music is my great passion—it brings me peace and a sense of purpose. The ability to express myself through music is incredibly liberating.

I have contributed music to feature films such as Pusher 2 and Pusher 3, composed music for Danish national radio documentaries Sådan er fædre and Sådan er mødre, and worked on a Japanese short film that was selected for the Sundance Film Festival.

The name Lovelight—a slightly kitschy expression—dates back to the early days of the internet when I used a dial-up modem that took minutes to send and receive short messages. At that time, I was part of a spirituality-focused online group, and the members thought Lovelight was the perfect name for me. I have kept it as my artist name ever since.
