Olof Dreijer is a music producer, DJ, musician and member of the Swedish electronic pop group, The Knife. Olof has been pushing the borders of electronic music for two decades, trying to keep things fun and colourful.
A fledgling DJing career commenced around ‘98 at local school parties, and Olof was soon up and running his first club night focussed on Disco, House, Garage, and Drum n' Bass during his high school years. By the early 2000s, Olof moved into playing Hip Hop and R&B before a period invested in hard Techno, acid house, EBM, Shranz and even Trance.
2023 saw Olof return with a first taste of new solo music, releasing the Rosa Rugosa EP on the celebrated UK label HessleAudio, the title track described as ‘an unconventional summer banger capable of carpeting the dancefloor in dazzled smiles’by Pitchfork. This was complemented by the release of Souvenir, a long-gestating project with fellow producer Mt. Simswhich centres around the rich harmonics of the steel drum. Further solo music from Olof Dreijer is planned in the comingmonths.
