Quotes
Norwegian dj balErik (nice name) is building props left right and center, playing alongside S.O.S and generally rocking the quality deep house sound. But it’s his productions that really made us notice. Go to his myspace and check out the likes of ‘Energy Fields’ with lush progressive synths, and recognize a star in the making. DJ MAG Pick ‘n’ Mix (March 2008)

"A deejay to watch out for “ ,Desyn Masiello -Source Dj Mag Oct. 2005

"One the most entertaining and quality up and coming DJ’s around. Knows how to move a floor and doesn’t try to be to cool. Also good with the ladies so I've heard. Not bad for an ex reindeer driver" Rowan Blades.

balErik - Freshblood - WE LOVE SPACE - December 09 WINNER:
Hailing from Oslo, balErik has gained a big following in Norway and from the mix he sent us we can see why. Inspired by a set he played in a New York club, it's got that classic house sound that became synonymous with the Ibiza music scene. This mixed with some more modern techno tipped tracks lends itself to a great mix and a deserving winner.
