The man behind the Classic Album Sundays listening club in Oslo is known as a notorious record collector and driven DJ, and has been one of our most exciting music mediators since the mid-90s. 
 
Kent is a trained architect and knows exactly how this is done. His sets are often described as being as educational as they are infectious for the dance floor. Here threads from the fringes of jazz and rock are woven into electronic experiments; in polyrhythmic world disco, techno funk and discoid house music, preferably with a classic DJ setup supplemented with synths and various effects boxes. The music he plays is like himself; extremely hospitable and inclusive, but at the same time with dark corners, sharp edges and the hint of blood in the rhythm.
 

Electronic music and disco lie thickly above the DJ sets, but with an upbringing marinated in prog rock and metal music and schooling from classical music(!), you can always expect a raw and exploratory, and at the same time gentle handling of the dance frenzy. Horne sees connections in music history that you didn't know existed and makes them irresistible on the dance floor.
