Vorig jaar scoorde Todd Terje een dikke discohit met 'Inspector Norse'. In de videoclip was een Noorse zonderling te zien die een rond wandelende eenmansdisco leek. Nu is de volledige documentaire online gezet waaruit de beelden van de muziekvideo afkomstig zijn: Whateverest. Een verbazingwekkend portret van een intrigerend persoon die danst waar hij maar kan en zijn eigen drugs fabriceert.

WHATEVEREST is a documentary about the unlikely inspiration behind a dance tune produced by Todd Terje called Inspector Norse . "Inspector Norse" is the internet alias of Marius Solem Johansen, a failed musician living in a small town, producing dance videos and drug recipes for YouTube. Directed by Kristoffer Borgli.

Todd Terje - Inspector Norse As you listen to this track you’re probably wonder, “Hey Jimmy, why the dance music?” Well funny you should ask, last night I watched a touching character documentary called WHATEVEREST directed by Kristoffer Borgli which is about ”…the unlikely inspiration behind a dance tune produced by Todd Terje called “Inspector Norse”. “Inspector Norse” is the internet alias of Marius Solem Johansen, a failed musician living in a small town, producing dance videos and drug recipes for YouTube.” As the story behind the [...]

Unless you've been completely away from the dance music scene last year, you know of the track that was pretty much everyone's top track last year, Todd Terje 's "Inspector Norse." A couple months after it dropped on his album "It's the Arps," Terje released the music video. This is where the tune really took off, spreading virally across the interwebs. What you may not have heard is there's a whoooole backstory behind the character of Inspector Norse, which happens to be the handle of one Marius Solem Johansen. Supposedly, a fan of [...]

One of 20122s memorable club tunes was a quirky, catchy disco instrumental titled Inspector Norse. The official music video centres on a regular guy whose interests happen to include making his own drugs, wearing Christmas lights and dancing wherever he goes. Yesterday a link popped up on Facebook and I discovered the story was real. Poignant and funny, if not a little exploitative, this award-winning short by Kristoffer Borgli explores the fate of a man coming to terms with his love of music and his life as a never-was.

So how much did we miss? Well, quite alot actually. Here's some headlines...

Remember that awesome music video for the modern classic, 'Inspector Norse' by Todd Terje (...watch here...) - one of our favorites of last year, and of all time? Well, we just came across the full documentary which covers the life of the real 'Inspector Norse,' Marius Solem Johansen - a man who Too Terje was fascinated by and to whom this song was dedicated. Yes, it's a faultless track, but there is an even greater and stranger story behind it. Directed by Kristoffer Borgli, this documentary takes us on a trip into the life of the real 'Inspector [...]

When asked to takeover this column I had to ask myself first just what is 'electronic music'. As we hurtle into 2013 it's a strange time to be a fan of the all encompassing genre. In theory we've never had it so good, EDM bestrides the known universe with everyone from the most hardcore of rappers to pop's princesses wanting to swaddle themselves in the perceived cool of dance music's all conquering midrange fuzz. Unfortunately though, in what will in years to come become the textbook definition of a pyrrhic victory, electronic music's global takeover [...]

Depois do hit "Snooze 4 Love", o norueguês Todd Terje que faz o seu percurso musical desde 2004 alimentando-se de vários estilos musicais que vão desde o dub ao techno, passando pelo synth pop, house e disco, tem sindo conhecido pelos seus edits e remisturas não só dos seus próprios temas, mas também de outros artistas que já não se encontram entre nós.

Nord-super-powers Todd Terje and Lindstrom have set their sights on 2013 with an exciting new live show. Simply put the two are out to "try something new after many years of travelling alone.", a reasonable request considering the expansive solo careers of both immensely talented producers. The two have already begun working together with Terje mixing and editing 'Stoms Smalhans album in 2012. The two also performed an early version of the live show at an Oslo festival at the tail end of last year. Also, only a few days old is collaborative [...]

Lanzarote is a track that has been in the works for a while for Todd Terje & Lindstrøm and why they've been sitting on it is a mystery to me. I know a lot of the time producers talk about how they're going for an "80s feel" most of which they successfully do. The difference with this song is that it sounds like it was yanked straight out of the 80s. It is light, fresh and has this overriding happiness that a lot of seminal tracks from the 80s are renowned for. My favourite part [...]
Despite a huge critical success in 2012, Todd Terje is definitely not resting on his laurels in 2013. Today the Norweigan producer/DJ released "Lanzarote," a bit of a tribute to the start of a great partnership with fellow countryman Lindstrøm. The two have already announced their impending partnership for a live touring show this summer, scheduled to hit big festivals like Sonar . "Lanzarote" offers a look back at past summer seasons as well as look forward to a blissed-out, synthed-out, disco-groovy tune. The full track clocks in at almost nine minutes and leaves us wondering [...]

Well, this was bound to set the internet alight. Unless you’ve been living under a rock this week, you’ll already be aware of the new single from two of the standout producers of 2012. Lindstrøm and Todd Terje both owned last year when it comes to quirky, spacey Disco, and now the two Norwegians are together as one. Lanzarote is the name of the single, which strikes a nice balance between the sunlit warmth of Disco and ice Scandinavian electronics. Clock in at over eight minutes, Lanzarote feels like [...]
