Who is Petter?
Petter is a 20 year old DJ and producer from Stockholm in Sweden who is fast forging his own unique niche in the musical spectrum. With only two releases under his belt, the sublime ‘These Days’ on Holland’s Deep records and the two slices of loveliness-on-vinyl that was his ‘Six Songs EP’ for Border Community, Petter has won himself fans from all corners, and a more solidly diverse young talent you’d struggle to find.
Petter’s music wears its diverse influences on its sleeve, fusing together techno, electro, dub, ambient, acid, breaks and deep house in his own unique style. Sasha is a confirmed follower, recently reviving and remixing ‘These Days’ for his ‘Involver’ compilation, but Petter’s tracks are equally at home in the more offbeat sets of the likes of Laurent Garnier, Josh Wink, Trevor Jackson and The Hacker. Even Tiesto included Petter on his recent ISOS, a no-holds barred afair remade by Australian hero Luke Chable.
The young Swede is also gaining a bit of a reputation for his own DJ sets, an equally unique hybrid of electro-tinged dubbed-out house and techno. As well as appearances around Stockholm, Petter holds quarterly residencies at Border Community’s label nights at Turnmills in London, but has been asigned warm up dj for recent gigs with James Holden, highlighting one fo the most forward-thinking parties in WMC this year.
Rest assure, Petter will be a name you will listen to a lot this year,

"I think the scientific and the artistic spirit have something in common. The scientist wants not only to learn the facts, but to understand how they cohere, fit together and make a whole. He even uses criteria such as beauty and symmetry to help decide which theory he wants.
The scientist cannot capture the whole cosmos in thought. In his mind he makes a kind of microcosm, which we see as an analogue of the cosmos. In this way we try to get a feeling for the whole. The artist, I suppose, gets a feeling for the whole some other way.”
David Bohm in “Art, Dialogue and the Implicate Order”, published in On Creativity RC (Routledge Classics)
