Ost & Kjex (Petter Haavik & Tore Gjedrem) are an enigmatic electronic music duo from Oslo. They are a comic strip brought to life in 4D with a soundtrack that bounces between ebullient synth orchestrations and urgent impulses. Fuelled by a Dadaistic approach to music, art and life, they’ve drawn an international audience to their work with records on some highly-regarded labels, such as Crosstown Rebels and Solomun’s Diynamic.
Petter and Tore bonded over a love of skating in their teens, during a period when the pastime was still considered illegal in Norway. Spurred on by the sounds of Black Metal, Hardcore and Punk, their rebellion soon found more than one outlet with music playing a significantly role in their formative years. They created a band called Beyond Dawn which evolved over the course of a decade from skate punk and death metal, to new wave and art rock only to emerge as full-blown ravers by the end of the 1990’s.
Opting for the red pill on their way to re-assemble as Ost & Kjex for Y2K, they discarded their black garb for a hi-vis color palette and adopted a fully electronic sound. Bringing their quirky sensibilities to the fore, Ost & Kjex stepped away from the anti-establishment sounds of the early nineties to assume the anti-establishment sounds of the new millennium. The diverse set of influences that made them so adaptable as a rock band remained central to their work as an electronic music duo with everything from Delta Blues and Soul to Noise and experimental electronica informing Petter and Tore’s work.
The stage still beckons Ost and Kjex and they continue to travel the world as a live act with stamps from Panorama Bar, Fuse, Fabric, ADE, Sonar OFF, Rex, and tons of other famous clubs and festivals smudged through their passports. Whether they’re playing with a full gospel choir or a minimal club set, Ost & Kjex bring an indelible energy to the stage as they channel the sounds of their vast discography into jubilant live shows.
Ost & Kjex’s music is now reserved for their own outlet, Snick Snack, a label they started with life-long friends Trulz & Robin. Besides releasing new music from Ost & Kjex, the label has provided a platform for local friends to explore their own divergent impulses.
