Tony Humphries | g-HA & Olanskii | Finnebassen
The man, the myth, the legend, Tony Humphries takes his rightful place in our booth again as our honorary resident and disco dignitary. He is joined by g-HA & Olanskii and Finnebassen as the kindred spirits and rightful succession to his legacy here in Oslo. Disco, House and the future of club music owes much of its existence to this DJ. From Disco’s heyday, he has been a barometer for the dance floor, playing an important role in establishing House music and the early days of the nightclub from his home in New York in New Jersey.

Tony Humphries
When thinking about Tony Humphries, you might be minded of his epic stint at KISS FM-NY as one of its greatest Mastermixers; or of his residency at one of the greatest US clubs, The Zanzibar; or, even, the walls that are lined with gold discs, from Indeep to Janet Jackson; or his legendary eclecticism for throwing whatever works into the mix, from The B-52’s or Rhythim Is Rhythim to Blaze. Heck, Tony Humphries is, of course, all of those things and more. But then, there’s the Tony of today, restless, questing, searching for new challenges
Tony Humphries has now been DJing nearly 35 years, an incredible achievement that in any other industry would have been rewarded with a carriage clock, service medal and a free bus pass. His lengthy stints at radio stations like Kiss FM were not simply an exercise in career furtherment, but a way of introducing new music and acts to the city of New York – and further afield, as a continuation of what he was doing at his weekly residency at the legendary Zanzibar.
Finnebassen
Leaving his teenage genre hopping days behind him, 2008 saw a house music epiphany, as a deep rooted interest in electronic music began, bringing Finnebassen to the sound he relays today. Although he has been producing music and playing gigs in his hometown of Oslo for a long time, 2012 saw his first releases, which gained huge support and landed him at the top of the beatport charts. You will regularly find Finnebassen touring the world; he has played to crowds from Europe to Asia, and Australia to the USA.
g-HA & Olanskii
Two pivotal bodies in the sphere of Norwegian electronic music, g-HA & Olanskii are an event, a club, a DJ duo, and a musical authority for Norway. Individually adept as DJ, selectors and tastemaker, Ola “Olanskii” Smith-Simonsen and Geir “g-HA” Holger’s musical voices unified for Sunkissed, an events series that has become the backbone of Oslo’s electronic music scene and beyond.
