Martin Horntveth is a busy young man, not only is he the drummer and leader of Jaga Jazzist, he is also busy with his own solo project. So far he has released the two EPs ”Fast Motion” and "Skull EP", both hailed by the critics everywhere. The last couple of years he has toured the world extensively, with gigs in Chicago, San Francisco, New York, Amsterdam, Stockholm, London, Roma, Berlin (to name a few). His live shows are jaw dropping; wild, spontaneous and very physical. Horntveth mixes electronica (both abstract and melodic), dark electro, punk rock, cut-up, free jazz and even metal. But always twisting and turning things in unexpected ways. Dark, elegant and beautiful.
