"One the most entertaining and quality up and coming djs around. Knows how to move a floor and doesnt try to be to cool. Also good with the ladies so i've heard. Not bad for an ex reindeer driver" Rowan Blades.
"balErik - Freshblood - WE LOVE SPACE - December 09 WINNER"
Hailing from Oslo, balErik has gained a big following in Norway and from the mix he sent us we can see why. Inspired by a set he played in a New York club, it's got that classic house sound that became synonymous with the Ibiza music scene. This mixed with some more modern techno tipped tracks lends itself to a great mix and a deserving winner.
