About Me

Raider began DJ'ing five years ago in the capital of Denmark, and due to many successful bookings at a large variety of venues, with crowds and at club-residencies, he has become a seasoned veteran DJ. He has performed at most landmarks, from The Tube to Bryggen, Neun to Docken, Halvandet to Amager Bio. In 2005 he joined french 3D Vision Recordings as a label-DJ, but he is foremost reputated for his superb mixing technique, appealing trackselection and energetic performance. Raider plays a majority of electronic music, while being notorious for his raw and recognizable psychedelic-style.

Samples of promo-mixes: Protoned [Hitek], Sonic Solutions [Psy], Default [Tech], and latest Mycoherbicides [Hitek].

His bad-ass mixing aside, Raider has a creative interest in creating short documentaries, designing flyers for various organizers, writing articles and making street art.

Heroes:

Mahatma Gandhi for his pure ideology. His beliefs led humanity away from the inhumanity in us. Against the bestial- tumor of instincts, he showed through pacified resistance, how cruel we have become. One man alone, changing the world, with a pure thought and a cleansing result. He did what religion often cannot do.
Michael Mann for his beautiful craftsmanship in film cinema. With strong, real to life stories, perfected in every aspect, he manages to justify, where others glorify. Drugs, crime, abuse, politics and ethics. He expresses with great subtlety, where our values should be, and where the decent in society breads from.
Banksy for his ever inspiring subliminal and sarcastic views on society. Through (street) art he manages to make us laugh, when we should be crying, he makes us ponder, when usually we pass on life without notice. He is an artist fed up with his local-world, and impacts it through mere simplicity on a global seeding scale.
These are all heroes that talks, in each their own language, of the malignant of our humanity. Humanity violated by the egotism to take care of one self, be in a survival state, instead of being more of person – going beyond what is, to be human, thus becoming more human. Barbaric instincts, addictions, rushing emotions, actions without thought is what is destroying civilization today. Are you a beast… or can you become human again? Rules and law only apply and appear to those in need of them – for they are not capable of helping themselves.
