I am here for Networking

About Me

Close to the big five-o and in good spirit. NOw back in Jutland after nearly eight years living on the island of Samsø with the family. Still working in the music business with A&R, management, songwriting, production work, journalism and every now and then behind the microphone. Currently I am working with Poul Krebs, Moh Denebi, Entakt, Surfact, Michel Belli, Dicte, Peter Belli, Davenport and Troels Boberg - either doing management/consultancy or as part of my engagement with the fine musical companies Frisker Music, Transistor Music and Bonnier Music. The fine festival in Skanderborg is another close work partner.

My Interests

Music, litterature, films, fine wines and good food - and on top of it all the missus and the kids

I'd like to meet:

Could be nice to share a bottle of Grappa with Paul McGuinness and Bono...

Music:

Ever changing - mostly listening to demoes and current productions, but definitely inspired by giants like Elvis, The Beatles, The Doors and The Clash + a lot of Danish acts of the past and present, including the ones I..m currently working with as well as old companions like TV-2 and Kashmir.

Movies:

Apocalypse Now is an alltime favourite

Television:

Not much - but when it happens: friday night comedy shows on our Danish alternative national channel DR2 (like Tjeneste + Normalerweize + Drengene Fra Angora) + Zulu..s "Klovn" + news + all kinds of music television

Books:

These days I..m into novels by Swedish criminal writers Arne Dahl and Stieg Larsson + Norwegian fellow Jo Nesbø.

Heroes:

Late & greats in music like Joe Strummer, John Lennon, Elvis & Jim Morrisson + giants like Dalai Lama, Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela.

My Blog
