Biography
There are several artists called Endre, one from Sweden and one from Norway.
1) Endre is Swedish producer, Alex Sjöström. A great example to any aspiring producer out there, at just 17 years of age Alex has risen from bedroom musician to one of dance music's emerging new talents.
Alex hails from a musical family (his father was a DJ, his mother a singer) and draws his influences from a broad range of genres, including House, Drum'N'Bass, Techno, Ambient, Breakbeat, Hip Hop, Classics, Pop, Rock and Trance. This eclectic taste is reflected in his own music-making and a unique style that combines laidback melodies with atmospheric production ideas, to build dancefloor tension and create impact.
Endre's first offering, 'Kallocain', is an epic and melodic affair with a Van Dyk groove and some rather lovely strings. Factor in a remix from an in-form Robert Nickson and you're left with yet another killer Anjuna 12".
As a point of interest, Kallocain is named after the classic Swedish novel which envisions a future of drab terror. Seen through the eyes of idealistic scientist Leo Kall, the book's depiction of a totalitarian world state is a montage of what novelist Karin Boye had seen or sensed in 1930s Russia and Germany. Its central idea grew from the rumours of truth drugs that ensured the subservience of every citizen to the state. Who said politics and music don't mix!? Kallocain was released in March 2004.
