——— LAST DANCE OF POSH ISOLATION ———
Après 16 ans de bons et loyaux services, le label suédois tire sa révérence. Fondé en 2009 par Christian Stadsgaard et Loke Rahbek, cette singulière entité était devenue le biotope de toute une scène underground scandinave avec 297 références enchevêtrant pseudos cryptiques et collaborations pour assurer le leadership contre-culturel sur l’ambient malade, la techno shoegaze ou la noise futuriste.
——— CROATIAN AMOR (DK)
EN/
Croatian Amor is the solo alias of Loke Rahbek.
Croatian Amor realises a distinct and brilliant intimacy about the bracing pace and chronicle of the contemporary world. Hailing from Copenhagen, Rahbek operates the label Posh Isolation, a place of incubation for many artists from across Scandinavian experimental music, including many of his own collaborators. As Croatian Amor, Rahbek's most crucial and imaginative account is laid bare.
Croatian Amor composes with pop artefacts of the circuits that interlace our lives. Sometimes speaking in loneliness, though often telling of trysts, Croatian Amor presents a longing for indeterminate sensation. Employing a medley of diffuse electronic music traditions, fantastical synthetic worlds are evoked to make this world just a little more habitable.
His most recent works include the solo albums “Remember Rainbow Bridge” from 2022 and “A Part of You in Everything” from 2023 and a continuous flow of releases with longtime collaborators Scandinavian Star & Frederik Valentin.
Croatian Amor has performed at festivals, venues and clubs such as, Berlin Atonal, Rewire, Mutek Mexico, Ephemera Festival, Roskilde, Click, Sydney Opera House, Berghain, Wide Awake Festival, Copenhagen Contemporary.
——— VANITY PRODUCTIONS (DK)
EN/
Christian Stadsgaard, also known as his solo moniker Vanity Productions, has become a crucial figure in the contemporary Nordic electronic and experimental music scenes in the past decade.
Emerged in the early 2000s in the experimental noise music scene, Stadsgaard is known for his innovation and elaborate expressive style. As Vanity Productions he turned to fuse together noise elements with introverted melodies and hereby creates desolated soundscapes and grand tales of modern turbulent conditions. Often with an existentialist touch and blurry sensibility, Stadsgaard paints sonic canvases of modern day melancholia. Under the banner “Broken hearts and broken electronics” Vanity Productions is oscillating between electronic experimentation, noise exploration and elevated melodic elaboration, directing tender forces with and assertive and impulsive streak.
Standing at the helm of the label Posh Isolation with Loke Rahbek, Stadsgaard is responsible for one of the most consistent and compelling labels to both define and elaborate the many productive sides of the underground in the last decade. As a performing and recording artist his work with Rahbek as Damien Dubrovnik was a critical project in the contemporary noise milieu throughout the 2010s. More recently his collaborative work with Jonas Rönnberg and Isak Hansen as The Empire Line has gained significant notoriety. However, it's in Vanity Productions that the full breadth of the emotive intensity of Stadsgaard's work is expressed. His collaboration with the seminal artist Merzbow in 2019 led to 'Coastal Erosion' album for iDEAL Recordings, prefacing a recent series of works that take their cues from minimalist composition.
——— OQBQBO & SCANDAVIAN STAR (DK)
Copenhagen based producer oqbqbo weaves ambient, euphoric dance music that feels both otherworldly and oddly familiar - a sonic realm where eurodance memories flicker through the haze of contemporary club music. Wordless vocals haunt her tracks like half-remembered dreams, not telling stories, but becoming an instrument of emotional texture rather than narrative clarity.
Since 2019, oqbqbo has been part of the world around Posh Isolation. Her work moves between solo pieces and collaborations - recently with Scandinavian Star on ‘In This Together’ an album released in April 2025.
