In Demand: balErik

Erik (balErik) Molthe has been one of the leading DJ`s in the Oslo underground house scene since he began DJing in 2001. For years his dedication for hunting tracks has been in full use by Desyn Masiello as A&R for Alternative Route.

Now as partner in his own label, Discoteca Music, he has begun producing his own tracks with partner Vadim Yershov. They are proving to be quite a successful duo, recently releasing an EP on Plastic City and they have a few in the pipeline for Discoteca later this year, including ‘Do Your Dance` and ‘Everybody`; both very funky grooves perfect for the dance floor.

I have been listening to everything Discoteca from before the label even started, so it`s been nice to see the progression in sound from all the members. Erik has really been catching my ear lately. His ‘We Love Space` mix received loads of play and this In Demand mix is my new favorite, a sexy blend of classic tracks and new upbeat house bombs, exactly what I want to hear on a dance floor.

balErik – In Demand – January 2010

I`m really happy that I have been able to book Erik for the Audio Tonic night at 360 this Friday January 29th. Now all the Discoteca members will have played the most beautiful venue in Dubai!

This year is starting off well for Erik, but stay tuned for even more mixes, tracks, parties and exciting new projects which are making this pale blue eyed Norwegian very much In Demand!
