SYNTHOMANIA
NORWAY
Marius Bjørnson is a young Norwegian producer known for his raw, dirty, powerful and unique sound. He is what some might call a “hardware junkie,” to the beautiful realization that there is a limitless dimension of sounds just waiting to be discovered. Most of his productions is within the genre of electronica and bass oriented music. The unequalled musical style has a retro soundscape in which he presents a completely new genre of his own, with almost exclusive use of old rare hardware synths, custom circuit bent drum-machines and samplers.
His career in music began in 2003 when he first set his hands on a piano at the age of 15. Almost instantly, he fell in love with the idea of creating music and began studying jazz piano, musical theory and composition in general. During these years of artistic development, his first synthesizer (Roland D-50) was obtained and his eyes were opened to the beautiful realization that his talent did not have to end at the mere sound of a piano, but that there was a completely new limitless dimension of sounds just waiting to be discovered.
