2) Petter Nordqvist is a 20 year old DJ and producer from Stockholm in Sweden who is fast forging his own unique niche in the musical spectrum. 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. The young Swede is also gaining a bit of a reputation for his own live and DJ sets, an equally unique hybrid of electro-tinged dubbed-out house and techno. Read more on Last.fm.
