Sternklang bio

He’s come home! Rune Brondbo aka Sternklang that is. After a two-album stay at Tromso’s fine Beatservice label, Sternklang has chosen Oslo-based dBut Records as home for his new releases.

The indisputable don of the Norwegian scene, Sternklang has three critically acclaimed albums, several vinyl releases and a bunch of remixes to his credit. His live performances are of a legendary calibre, much a statute to his uncanny ability to recruit the right live-musicians and challenge them with the right beats.



His debut album, the aptly titled “Freestylespacefunk”, was released in 1997 on Beatservice. Rave reviews followed; the press loved it and national radio gave the album lengthy airplay. Not a man to rest on his laurels, Brondbo assembled a competent live-crew and hit the road. Both Roskilde and the Quart festival were treated to the unique Sternklang-experience: steamin grooves, cluttering percussion and earth-shaking sub-bass.

1999 saw the release of “Neolounge”, and the reception was even more formidable this time. His exploration of classic 70’s breaks coupled with a stylistically modern production approach went home with journalists, clubbers and DJ’s alike. Ecstatic reviews and packed clubs solidified his status as one of the main acts on Norway’s ever growing club-scene.
Following the release of “Neolounge”, Sternklang has toured extensively. Both Norway, Denmark, Sweden and UK have been greeted with his warm personality and irresistible musical crusade. Dozens of gigs have proved that Sternklang is more than able to straddle the narrow divide between electronic live-performance and static knob-twiddling.
