Ost & Kjex (NO)

Saturday Sep. 18 – Tou scene 1 at 00:30

With a sound that straddles electro, funk, disco and house, Oslo based duo Ost & Kjex return with their second long-player ‘Cajun Lunch’ on Hamburg based imprint, Diynamic.

Having released their cheese fixated (and indeed sampled) debut album ‘Some Cheese but not all Cheese comes from the Moon’ in 2004 the food obsessed Norwegian pair have released a multitude of EPs and remixes on labels such as Crosstown Rebels, Planetnoise, Modular, Snick Snack, Punkt, Dialect and now Diynamic Music and played in venues and festivals all over the world including Fabric (UK), Panorama Bar (DE), Moog (ES), Fusion Festival (DE), Hove Festival (NO), Numusic (NO) and Noveau Casino (France) to name a few.

The debut album, to their big surprise awarded them a nomination for best electronica album at the Norwegian Grammys and the pair continued to develop their sound on releases such as ‘More Songs About Cheese And Revolutionary Tarts’, ‘How Not To Be A Biscuit’ and ‘Boston Food Strangler’.

Since then the food boys have awoken, got their hands on some serious sounds and started shredding out tunes aimed at the dance floor. Ost & Kjex’s love for electronic music still takes the boys wherever the cheese is fresh and the beats are crunchy: from the Reggiano Parmesan factory in Verona to your local watering hole, churning out theatrical performances or fucked-up live sets for the dance floor. This summer will be no exception as you will find them gigging in clubs, live venues and festivals across the world both as a duo and also featuring “The Traces” gospel choir.
