Wet Sessions is back in March up on the WETDeck at W Kuala Lumpur. This time they're welcoming Jeremy Olander to WETDeck this coming Saturday 4 March 2023. Get ready to dance the night away and have a blast.
The Swedish Bedrock, Last Night On Earth and Anjunadeep artist and Vivrant label founder Jeremy Olander is on a grand ascent. Since bursting onto the scene in 2011, Olander has been described as the saviour of the melodic house and techno style once made famous by Sasha and John Digweed.
Looking in the rear mirror, Olander got his start a decade ago on Eric Prydz’s Pryda Friends imprint. He went on to put out an unprecedented seven releases with Prydz, play New York City’s Madison Square Garden and record a BBC Essential Mix that was shortlisted as one of the best of that year.
Born in Fairfax, Virginia, USA to a Swedish father and an Indian mother, Jeremy was brought up in Stockholm and become exposed to the city’s small but passionate electronic scene in his early teens. With role models in the likes of Adam Beyer, Cari Lekebusch and Joel Mull leading the charge, Jeremy found sources of inspiration at the defunct legendary club Grodan Cocktail Club among Stockholm techno royalty, as well as Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, Berry Gordy, Shigeru Miyamoto and east coast hip-hop.
His deep and emotionally charged style aside, true to his Swedish electronic music heritage, Jeremy also masters the craft of driving, drum-oriented techno under his enigmatic Dhillon monicker. With multiple tracks on fellow Swede Adam Beyer’s Drumcode label, one of the most coveted in the world, Olander displays his near uncanny breadth as a producer.
In late 2015, in an attempt to gain control and vertically integrate his creative visions in all aspects of his career, Olander founded Vivrant, which has since become one of the most exciting and forward-thinking in recent memory.
Most recently, just last October, Jeremy Olander recorded at the first-ever dance event at Stockholm’s City Hall.
For this Saturday at WETDeck, support for the night will be provided by our very own Stutu (one half of the duo Hulkas,) and Afaro.
