Known for his unique and versatile sound, Berlin-based
Jan Blomqvist
will make an appearance at Budapest’s legendary
Ötkert
on 26 December. Blomqvist is currently regarded as one of the most talented artists within the more melodic branch of
deep house
, and he is heralded as the next big star of the
electronic
music scene.
Two of his main strengths are his incredible voice and his ability to use his non-traditional tracks to easily alter the mood of his audience. It’s like he is playing on our ribs like on a xylophone. His minimalist sets and past releases are melancholic and euphoric at the same time, cool and distant, yet heartwarmingly pop-like. Thanks to his performances at
Balaton Sound, Hyperspace, Bónusz Festival
and this year’s
B my Lake Festival
, he has become a secret favorite of the Hungarian audience, a fact corroborated by his 5000-strong Hungarian Facebook following.
