Norwegian producer/DJ/remixer Marius Våreid's work covers a wide range of musical styles, from Balearic disco/house, NY garage to tropical jazz. Having worked with talents like Prins Thomas, Ray Mang, DJ Yellow, Rune Lindbaek, Bugge Wesseltoft, Pete Herbert and Ajello, Marius is always seeking out new collaborators to push his music in new directions. Marius started out as a breakdancer and a piano student, listening to Herbie Hancock and the Rock Steady Crew as well as Dizzy Gillespie and Satie. But it was the Swedish radio show "SoulCorner" with radio legend Mats Nileskjär that got Marius interested in DJing and music production. Nileskjär's shows dug deep in the history of black dance music, and always presented the newest in house, hip-hop, etc. Starting out with a Dynachord Tape Echo mixer, a Fender Rhodes Mark I and 2 turntables back in the late '80s, Marius waited a good 20 years to release his first solo album, now ready to launch from the safe havens of Prins Thomas' Full Pupp label.
