Orjan Nilsen

Coming off what can only be described as an unforgettable 2011 Ørjan Nilsen hardly needs any introduction – his first artist album "In My Opinion" has received much praise and so has single-releases like Between The Rays, The Mule, Viking, Atchoo, Lucky Strike & Legions. This Norwegian prodigy seems to be going at a crazy pace in the studio recently, and collaborations with Armin van Buuren, Leon Bolier and others are in the works proving that Ørjan Nilsen has no intention of slowing down just yet.

Born in 1982 – Ørjan Nilsen grew up well north of the polar circle far away from most things, and yet he seems to have become a world phenomenon both in the studio and on the decks, having played in Hawaii, Los Angeles, Moscow, Amsterdam, London and Sydney – yet there is still a huge demand for his unique infectious blend of chunky energetic tracks, it is simply impossible to put him in a box.

2012 has already got some great performances in the calendar, with events being added on a weekly basis this proves to be an even more intense year than 2011 – Ørjan Nilsen is also very happy to have been nominated for an IDMA in the category "Best Break-through DJ" and would like to thank each and every one that has attended one of his performances for the last 12 months for making it such an amazing year.
