Peder
A nostalgic nu jazz artist.
Peder has made a ton of records over the years. His first release was an international “Beastie Boys, ” remix of “Sure Shot” in 1994, followed by four more remixes , while he released tracks with iconic TripHop labels like MoWax, Ninja Tune, and JazzFudge. Alongside these trippy and gloomy releases, he managed to win a Grammy® award for a comedy album in 1999 and work as a photographer, DJ, radio presenter for DR (Denmark’s National Broadcasting Corp.), and actor. In 2006, Peder became a father and decided to cut down on his renaissance-type activities to focus on music. His debut solo album, “And He Just Pointed To The Sky,” was released by Ubiquity Records in 2007 to great reviews. It was voted the saddest record in Denmark ever (not sure that’s an accomplishment though) and featured in “Breaking Bad” Season 3. Since then, he has released four more solo albums, worked as an actor in Denmark and internationally (Netflix, DR, ZDF, SKY, etc.) as well as a director and film composer. He has also released three award-winning music videos. This is his sixth record. It’s still in the vein of TripHop, but, as usual filled with Disney like choirs, celeste sprinkles and played by Denmarks greatest jazzcats. “I want my music to sound like gloomy dance music from the 50s, but played by ghosts. Music from your sweet nightmare.” Here is his personal webpage: www.pederfromdenmark.com
