About Klubbas
It opens with Áhčis, “From Father”, built on a joik his father gave him fifteen years ago.
The old recording was worn and on an obsolete format, and modern AI technology made it possible to restore it. Klubbas means “in the club” in Sámi. The six tracks move between techno, house and ambient, and came out in November 2024.
After his time in Berlin, where he tried out new ways of producing, he recorded around his hometown, and those sounds run through the whole EP: bark, pine cones and stones, layered under the beats.
The artwork, by the photographer Tina Dubrovsky, is about mineral extraction and what it does to Sámi territories.
