User:Space Electric

Space Electric is a rock band in Oslo that materialized in 2014. The musicians are long-time friends who came together after Kristian Kruse, Bjørnar Mikkelsen and Åsgeir Knudsen joined forces with Jonathan Murray, Christian Yri and Thomas Yri. Kristian, Bjørnar and Jon played together in MAD ABOVE a decade earlier but parted ways after the tragic death of one of the band members. One of the first songs in the new band was a tribute to the lost band member. The music Kristian had written connected immediately with the whole band, and before long Bjørnar had written a beautiful eulogy and the song was finished.

The debut album 'The Great Attractor" from Space Electric was released 1st of October 2020. The singles 'It Ain't Over' and 'The Great Attractor from the album was released earlier in 2020. The Great Attractor is the mass of a trillion suns drawing galaxies towards it. The force increases in intensity and pulls the earth towards an unknown fate. Space Electric inhabits this parallel universe with its electromagnetic rock. Do you believe in a multiverse? Do you believe in dark energy? Do you believe in free will? Or do you believe in nothing?

The band recently finished recording the album ´The Great Attractor´ in Barcelona, produced, mixed and mastered by Alejandro Ortiz (producer), Andrés Pérez (co-producer) and Miquel Mestres (assistant engineer) of Angel Sound Studio. The electromagnetic sphere just increased in size and density yet again. The singles feature vocalist Bjørnar Mikkelsen’s powerful voice singing of philosophical struggle over apocalyptic guitars, spacey Moog synthesizers, groovy bass riffing and thunderous drums.

Space Electric released in 2017/2018 3 singles, produced/mixed by Ozzy (Åsgeir Knudsen) and mastered by Hugo Alvarstein.
