Kasper Bjørke comes from the heart of the thriving Copenhagen electronic scene. After more than a decade as a busy producer and DJ, Kasper has released his work on labels like Plant Music, Fine, Thugfucker and V2 Records and in addition received a Danish Music Award as Best Producer, for the well known project Filur, which he still runs with his old friend Tomas Barfod.

“The new album is quite a moody album” Kasper says, “with many proper song compositions on it. Some of them, like the singles “Young Again” or “Alcatraz”, could even be categorized as modern pop songs. Half the album is instrumental and the other half features singers that I admire and love for their songwriting and vocal expression.”

Kasper collaborated with Jacob Bellens of “I Got You On Tape” and “Murder” fame to write and feature the song Young Again. The brilliant song is a “dark, trippy lovesong with an edge”, Kasper states, but it comes with a strong catchy pop-appeal perfectly intoned by Jacob Bellens. The strings have been arranged and performed by no-one less than Davide Rossi who is known for his work for The Verve, Coldplay, Goldfrapp and most recently on the new Röyksopp album.

We are proud to have “Young Again” with remixes by WhoMadeWho & Tomboy and Serge Santiago.
The second single “Alcatraz” drops early 2010 with remixes by Jimpster, Zombie Disco Squad, Gluteus Maximus and Kenton Slash Demon (Silas Moldenhawer and Jonas Kenton from When Saints Go Machine), followed by the album “Standing on top of Utopia” in February 2010.

I the meanwhile you can buy “Young Again” right here or here.

We are looking forward to the album release!
Needless to say, this is only previews.
